    Does AM2 still exist? I thought they were dissolved after the purchase by Sammy.

    ...how can you dissolve AM2 :mad 

    I can't see how anyone else would be able to make the reasonably pretty awesome Out Run.

    Well I did some digging around on this.
    ...for whatever that's worth. However, Yu Suzuki, the former brains of AM2 isn't with them anymore. He's apparently been given his own division within Sega, but his only game that's been announced since then (Psy-Phi) seems to have been canceled. No news since then.

    AM-2 is still working on games VF-5 being their biggest recent release to arcades on the new "lindberg" platform

    Where did you hear that? From what I have seen they are working on the spin off "Shenmue Online" ATM

    Yeah, I found that, but will it be up to the AM2 games we're used to without Yu Suzuki? I wonder the same about Sonic Team without Yuji Naka.
