!! Yay! Best wishes to the rest of Bizarre.

Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing is probably my favorite kart racer this side of Mario Kart 64.

It really is a decent cart racing game, though. I had trouble splitting time between it and MODNATION RACERS, personally. One of the better ones in recent memory that doesn't have "Mario" in the title.

Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing surprised the crap out of me. What an amazing racer.

And so it begins. Soon we will get news of an all new studio formed by ex-Bizarre guys.

Sumo did a pretty awesome job with Outrun 2's conversion. Not only did they cram it onto the Xbox which had far less RAM than the arcade version did, but they ported it identically to PS2. Like it was identical to the Xbox and Arcade versions. I couldn't spot a difference except the framerate went a teeny bit down at rare points. Then they did the same thing on PSP, except the framerate was definitely effected (although it was - and still is -very playable).

When I read they made the PSP and Wii versions of Dirt 2 I went to check them out.... and was quite disappointed. I guess most of Dirt 2 has to do with physics beyond what those systems are capable of and modern shaders which can't be easily faked

Sumo digital is a good developer sonic & sega all star was a good kart racing game. Hopefully the new edition to their team will make their studio make even better....and I'm glade to see it a former member of bizarre creation. Hopefully more of them will find a new studio to join or create their own.

Awesome. I was just playing Metropolis Street Racer a few days ago. For the sake of the arcade racing genre, I hope the seeds of Bizarre all manage to take root elsewhere.

Oh man.
Outrun 2/2006:C2C was a fantastically addictive arcade experience.
This could lead to great things...
