I figured we're at least round the same age, so we still share some taste in games.

My brother and me are only one year apart and yet we have different taste.
He's more into sport games while my preference were always changing but I'm definitely not into sport games.
In VS fighting games he's also more into Tekken while I'm more into Street Fighter.
But sometimes our tastes intertwined ... We both love Streets of Rage, Sky Adventure, Moonwalker (arcade), World of Ilussion, M.U.G.E.N, and ... that Yuji Naka's wacky strange game Feel the Magic XY/XX and its sequel, The Rub Rabbits.



RIP him, he's passed away last year.

I'm just using RoN as an example. It does belong to Sega, but I know that even Sega may not be chill when it comes to fan-content other than Sonic, so I may still be chanced in getting a C&D over a more obscure Sega game.

The chance are very very very low. Lower than 1%.
For a thousand SEGA fan games out there, I can only remember three games in which SEGA sent C&D (Streets of Rage Remake, Golden Axe Returns, and a Roblox Sonic Fan Game).

Sorry for the loss of your brother.

What made SoR and GA the axe-ception?

Sorry for the loss of your brother.

Thanks, I only have one brother and one sister so it's a lot of shock to me when it's happened.

What made SoR and GA the axe-ception?

I guess it's because of fans who couldn't stay low.
Streets of Rage Remake got C&D when SEGA of America launched their Genesis games on iOS including the Streets of Rage collection.
I remember in the comment section of the ad, there are fans who said the release was really dissapointing and called it minimal effort (since it's basically just roms running on emulator) and then compared it to SOR Remake.
Golden Axe Returns got C&D during the Power Surge ad's released. Some fans hate the 3D approach on the new Golden Axe and said they'd rather the game stays 2D like SOR4 and ... yeah, compared it to Golden Axe Returns.

I have three brothers. Even I tend to over-worry about my brother who lives with me at times.

I'm not against the idea of SoR and GA made into 3D games, it's just how it's delivered. If Sega really wants to revive and expand these franchises, keeping to the usual style may not cut it in the long-run. While Sonic Mania and origins did market well, not like fans want the Sonic franchise to stay like how it was for the Mega Drive forever.

Yeah, sadly not many fans understand that. They don't even buy new SEGA games anymore and just angrycomment when found out by accident that their used-to-be favorite franchise was different compared to back then.

This is why, while I do want Sega to revitalise their classic IPs, it will be such an uphill slough for them.

They would be better bringing back the Sega All-Stars series given a single game alone would bring much needed attention to many IPs in one go.

In fact, why not Sega release a brand-new Sega All-Stars game, with Crazy Taxi, Golden Axe, Jet Set Radio and Shinobi as starring characters? Given, after Shinobi AoV, are upcoming Sega games.

They did. Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds is practically a SEGA All-Stars game.

It is, Crazy Taxi is in there. What about Jet Set Radio, Streets of Rage or Golden Axe? I imagine those, along with Crazy Taxi, are franchises they want modern audience to have good first impressions with by the next year or so.

I believe they're gonna come to CrossWorlds too after they settle on the fix design of the characters (assuming the games are still in the work, not canceled), probably some after the game trailer released.

I am curious if the animated series will have any influence on Golden Axe as a franchise from now on.

But given Gilius was in S&SASR:T, wouldn't be that much of a stretch to see him in Crossworlds.

Yes, Gilius' returning is as natural as Amigo's returning.



But we still don't know when Golden Axe's gonna be released.
What if we still got ne news about it even after Year Two of CrossWorlds almost ends?
I don't think CrossWorlds will have Year Three after that.

I just hope I'll get to play it eventually.
