Yu Suzuki Steps Down At Sega
'Tis a sad day at Sega. Long hailed creative officer Yu Suzuki has decided to step down from his position and take a long break. Who is Yu Suzuki? Why, none other than the creator of many fantastic series, such as Space Harrier, Shenmue and almost anything with Virtua in the title. That's not his entire resume, not even by a long shot.
Sega has told Gamespot that Mr. Suzuki will still be worthing with the AM2 team in a "diminished capacity". Which means that he is essentially retired. Certainly not a bad place to be, I'm just glad he is retiring in the Japanese economy.
This also means that Shenmue 3 is probably not going to happen. Sorry fans, you're going to have to find some other title to find those sailors.

Other stuff like this: retired, sega, shenmue, virtua everything, yu suzuki
But I need to know what happens. It's been the better part of a decade since I first finished Shenmue 2, and it's been killing me ever since.
I don't care if it's not even a game, get someone to write a book. Just let me know what happens!!!
