Their videos just sort of appear, sometimes posting old content from conventions held months ago and sometimes up to date stuff like Tembo. Nice to see JSR featured, but they don't seem to be very good at the game and I don't get the feeling they know much about it.

Do they have more of a presence in Europe?

Sega Europe wanted to do Shenmue, but Sega America blocked it saying they would prefer to do a more 'relevant' game.

Are you serious? Like either of them are relevant by the strictest standards? What a joke SOA is.

Post by: Barry the Nomad on March 22, 2015, 11:23:43 am: Well, to be fair, Jet Set Radio HD is a thing. Shebmue HD is not. So if they do a lets play of JSR they have a chance to sell some copies, with Shenmue they don't.

Post by: Nathan on March 22, 2015, 02:16:13 pm: True, but they can't be expecting anything major from a let's play video on a YouTube channel.
