Dreams of an Absolution x Music Sounds Better With You (Club Chaos "Bootleg" Mix)
In the @sonic_hedgehog Club Chaos chat, some people heard this Stardust club classic and thought it was Silver's theme from Sonic 06 - so here's the mashup!

Any AI assets are used only as placeholders that are being replaced with manually created materials, says the Crazy Taxi: World Tour lead, Kenji Kanno, to Kotaku.
“We used it as a reference, so our artists would pull up [and] generate some of their ideas, and then they would look at that, you know, generated image, and then they would draw the actual thing. So actual creators, everything from programming to assets, everything is made by an actual human. It’s only used as a reference for them to look at, and then they would actually create the actual thing that would go into the game.”
SEGA is far from the first company to use AI for such purposes. While such publishers often face initial criticism, it seems that the tool is becoming the industry’s norm.

Regarding the generative AI usage in Crazy Taxi: World Tour. While the fact is concerning, especially regarding the future of other series like Sonic the Hedgehog, the extent of usage remains vague.
In the description on the game’s Steam page, SEGA hints at the AI tools only being used for technical purposes and for routine tasks to help the creators concentrate on creative work.
Brian Shea, the Executive Editor at Game Informer, revealed that the AI was used for some background assets of the project, which are still “subject to review by the development team”.
This wording generally falls in line with many other publishers who disclosed such usage of AI recently, those being Capcom, PlayStation, Bandai Namco, Square Enix, and many others.

this is an interview from 2025, and they clarified in 2026 directly to their shareholders that every single asset in the final game was made by hand, and they dont plan to implement ai generated assets
so no, the assets you posted are not made by ai and you're paranoid

Crazy Taxi used Ai. So does literal every studio today. Be it on concept stage (outside code), be it textures, assets, you name it. It is your choice not to consume it, but it is useless. Companies think about $$ You tell them it is untraceable, they pretend they don't get it.

То, ради чего я прошлой осенью уехал в Японию на два месяца. Посетил девять разных городов, что добавляли в серию #Yakuza, сравнил игры и реальность, а теперь показываю это вам!
Приятного просмотра!

Ok it's really funny. @GungHo_America just removed Trails in the Sky the 1st from russian Steam after selling it for a week. This happened after overwhelming support from ru community (200+ positive Steam reviews) despite not having localization in russian language.
We asked GungHo to lower the CIS price to coincide with regional price in Russia and Ukraine, but didn't expect the publisher to quietly remove it in Russia instead. It's petty and unprofessional.
I just finished Trails in the Sky the 1st yesterday, it was a superb 10/10 masterpiece and @nihonfalcom did a masterful job. It's such a shame that the western publisher is doing this.

"oh no it's edm all over the place again original tracks are ruined"
1. Do you really want the whole OST to be an incohesive mish mash of stylistically different tracks?
2. Please go listen to something outside of what you're used to I actually beg you to do so

Sonic fans are genuinely some of the most sabotaging people. We got ZARDONIC of all people for a racing game yet they talk about a good remix not being like the original and cry over a genre that's present since 00's still being present.

Some of these are going STRAIGHT to the playlist when these come out, are you kidding me?
