GI: Sega is doing a lot of licensed titles, which is a big difference for Sega. Why continue tapping the Marvel catalog when you have so much internally that you could make. Why not go back to Shenmue? Another Samba de Amigo? Shinobi? Ecco? Golden Axe? I could go on for an hour. (laughs)

Steinberg: You know, I think that’s a great question. The reality is this announcement, and the volume within the announcement may feel like it tips the scale in a lopsided way toward licensed properties. We’ve been tapping into some of the vault characters and bringing them out to show the fanboys that we’re going to try and bring new life into these characters so that is still a very important part of our effort. With The Golden Compass and this Marvel announcement it may feel like the scale is a bit heavier towards licenses. That’s kind of because we started at zero. It’s now just getting to where it’s about the lower part of what the other top publishers are doing. We’re still nowhere at where the EAs, the Activisions, the THQs have as a percentage. We have not neglected by any means – we haven’t announced them all – what we’re dusting off and bringing new life to our existing characters.

GI: Is that something we’ll see fleshed out more at your Gamers’ Day and E3?

Steinberg: Some of them. You know, the NiGHTS announcement, and we’re bringing NiGHTS back on the Wii. Hopefully you’ll see some of that, if not at the pre-E3 event, certainly at E3. There are a host of other games that are in development we haven’t announced that you should be quite excited about if you’re memory serves you on some of the epic properties of our past.

This is nothing I bet. Shenmue 3 will never be made.

Streets of Rage HD please...

This is nothing I bet. Shenmue 3 will never be made.

What are you talking about? Shenmue doesnt exist. Shenmue 1 and 2 were pigments of your imagination

...pigments of your imagination

When being a smartass it helps if you use the right words...

SHENMUE PLEEEZ SHENMUE 3 OMG PLEEEEASE!!!

Hey Mr. Wanna wrestle?

When being a smartass it helps if you use the right words...

I was wondering about the word, but i was in a hurry so i decided to put it there anyway.

Haha! For the record it' s ' FIGMENTS' . Those sorts of posts always crack me up - ' omg u cant spel ure tiping is rub1sh - u is a mong LOL' .

I hope the irony on this one was on purpose.

ya rly lol

Hahahaha, " Mo offense.."

SHENMUE PLEEEZ SHENMUE 3 OMG PLEEEEASE!!!

Say if it was ' PS3 only' Quezcatol?

Ye trhat would make a lot of sense.
Putting Shenmue 1-2 on DC then XBOX get the 2nd one and SEGA promise a sequal for the xbox and then it hit ps3.

WTF?!

If anything it should be on Wii.

I hope the irony on this one was on purpose.

Yes, it was... honestly... maybe not

Scott is always positive,
at least he is not negative!

I remember the last time when another major gaming organization
asked him about Shenmue III!

He did NOT say there is no Shenmue III, there is no Shenmue III under devleopment and...etc instead he just said " I can' t really answer that!(for now)"

and this time he is positive again!!!

He is saying just keep an eye open for our upcoming epic announcements!

SO, I' ll listen to him & I' ll wait.

I' m one of those guys who believes
that we don' t expect to see Shenmue III until 2009 or probably 2011(for 50%).
(but I really hope this doesn' t happen...I mean I want SHENMUE III NOW!)

What? Shenmue is a cinematic game series that has only ever been on the DC or the Xbox. Putting it on the Wii would signal a fundamental shift in direction for the series, one that most fans think it doesn' t need.

Put it on the X360 or PS3.
