From Games Are Fun:
Great to hear about Skies 2 and Rez 2! But the VF news is kind of dissapointing. Can't any Japanese third party aside from Capcom make a Gamecube game that's not made for kids??
Quote:Skies of Arcadia 2 in early planning stages
In a recent interview with Kikizo Games, the presidents of several of Sega's outstanding research and development teams sat down to talk about several subjects, including future projects.
The article is a great read but, for brevity's sake, we've gathered the most enticing tidbits here. First up, when asked whether OverWorks would make a sequel to the Dreamcast and GameCube classic, Skies of Arcadia, Noriyoshi Oba stated that the game is in the planning stages. Definitely good news for those who can't wait to hit the skies again.
Tetsuya Mizuguchi, head honcho at United Game Artists (UGA), said he would be very interested in making a sequel to Rez. He was disappointed by the first game's sales, but he feels that giving the series another chance wouldn't be foolish.
The legendary Yu Suzuki discussed AM2's upcoming GameCube adventure, Virtua Figher Quest. Even though details have been sparse at best, rumors of its cancellation are seemingly false as development is moving along. Suzuki claims that VF Quest will have some RPG elements, but will be an adventure game, through and through. Also, while the Shenmue series (once thought to be a Virtua Fighter RPG), has a very realistic look to it, Virtua Fighter Quest will have super-deformed characters.
