Crazy Taxi and Sega Rally, baby. Gotta love that japanese publishers give the european game industry new breath.

Cue outrage.

Crazy Taxi could do with some new life breathed into it though. Such an awesome first game, but that series really needs reviving.

Are they building this new team with Sumo Digital as its basis or are they going to start over from scratch? It's not really clear imho. Sounds extremely good though.

From scratch. Sumo is still independant and has plenty of projects right now, the most recent is TOCA Race Driver 2 for PSP.

I can't read the story for some reason. Any chance of a copy/paste for the good bits? Is this new studio taking over Crazy Taxi or something?

The site is down. The studio hints on Sega Rally and Crazy Taxi being the first projects for the programmers who want to get places.

Sega Rally? But Sega Rally 2005 is already coming from the former Hitmaker/Sega Rosso. :/
