Anything that shakes up the current state of Sega can't be bad. Let me think more about those later...Eric4372https://www.blogger.com/profile/09095046432310137155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9013533765370589846.post-533427592694401602011-07-10T11:37:52.107-05:002011-07-10T11:37:52.107-05:00Hi Eric, just to let you I'm still alive! I h...Hi Eric, just to let you I'm still alive! I have two Burnout games: Burnout 1 and Burnout Revenge. Only played Burnout Revenge once and didn't really understand what was going on so I'll guess I'll have spend some more time with both. <br /><br />It seems the former Segaworld arcade in London (now Funland) has been closed down! Some sort of dispute between the landlord and owner has culminated in the landlord cutting the power off. Personally I think the landlord wanted them out as a new hotel is being built on the top floor and more money can now be made from a big restaurant/bar/boutique. While the arcade is not local it will be more difficult to play the latest Sega coin-op racers.<br /><br />Speaking of Sega, Sega Amusements USA and Sega Amusements Europe are teaming up to form a new venture called Play It Inc. <br /><br />http://arcadeheroes.com/2011/07/08/whats-going-on-with-sega-amusements-usa-the-real-story/<br /><br />I also read that Sega are re-opening their racing division...<br /><br />http://psvitacfw.com/news/sega-racing-studio-open.htm<br /><br />Do you think this will mean more console to arcade conversions?RJAY63https://www.blogger.com/profile/12850076894301016839noreply@blogger.com
