One of our forum guys got a pretty crazy Idea, but it just may be worth a shot. Anyone running a game site should try this, I'm gonna try Sega America myself...

Hi Guys,
After waiting 5 years like you all, and finally joining the dojo, i have decided we need to try and do something extraordinary. What i mean by that is as opposed to reading online articles and speculating for things to happen, we need to hear things straight from the horses mouth. So, where do we start? We aim for the top.
What I want to try and do is an experiment with all you true shenmue fans. Lets pick up the phone and try and contact Sega Europe, and speak to the Managing Director. Yes it sounds a bit crazy but i have worked in sales, and you will be surpised at who ive spoken to on the phone before (CEOs & MDs of MAJOR companies), simply by just picking up the phone and dialling.
The following are contact details for Sega Europe:
Telephone: 0208 995 3399
Managing director Sega Europe: Alan Pritchard
So, come on guys, pick up the phone and ask for Alan. Lets see where we can go with this. Most of you will find that the gatekeepers (his personal assistant) will not let you through, in which case just get he's email address. For those of you who will be lucky enough to get through to him, ask him the vital questions about Shenmue 3 i.e. is it cancelled? is it under development? But wotever you do guys please do not get rude, or swear as this will not help the cause to say the least.
If this fails i say we take our venture internationally by getting the details of Sega Japan and Sega America and trying the same thing. You will find that the americans and japanese are so polite on the phone and will tell you anything you need to know.
At the end of the day, all i want to know, is Shenmue's status. As long as i know it isnt cancelled i am willing to wait a bit longer. But i need to know this vital peice of information first.
Let me know if your up for this!!!
So come on guys, let the calls begin!!!!
