There are loads of ways to make a sequel. It could be a completely unrelated game with the same name and with common themes or set in the same universe, it could be a different story running parallel to the first, the first could all have been some form of mass-psychosis halucination, maybe all the main characters from the first were cloned, could be the main character's twin brother this time around, might be a retelling of the first from the bad guy's perspective, the possibilities are endless. I would have thought you of all people would have seen enough films to appreciate how easy it is to make up some nonsense plot device to justify a sequel.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

So I'm guessing the video is legit, but who knows.

If memory serves, didn't Take 2 just announce that so their share price would increase when EA were trying to buy them? Not to say that it's not underway already but I certainly don't remember hearing anything else about this since about March. Also, I think they said at the time that a different dev team were working on the sequel although in this day and age with everyone buying engines in that doesn't mean much except for the scripting.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
