In Soviet Russia, Shenmue III is making Yu Suzuki...
Unless there is some real source and evidence, I don't know what to think. If it's true, it would be really bad for Shenmue, at least throwing the possibility of III's arrival back by years.
I have to agree that this is a pretty long shot. Going from Reggie not saying who made the tech demo to assuming it has something to do with Shenmue indeed is. Though I do have to say he made kinda of a suspicios impression there, whatever he may have had in mind. I also do have to agree that the te...
I doubt Ryo will ever become friends with Lan Di. You're right about Guizhang, how he was seemingly a vilian and then he helped Ryo. Same thing with Ren in Shenmue II. But those two are entirely different guys. Lan Di KILLED Ryo's father, Ren and Guizhang never did anything even remotely that evil.
Well that's just how I think. Lan Di deserves to to be punished for murdering Iwao. Though this is Shenmue we're talking about, so it doesn't have to follow the typical plot in that situation.
There are many ways how the story could turn out. Lan Di could be pushed aside by another Chiyoumen member that is more evil then him. Maybe even killed. Shenmue III Gang Edition has taken that route, though I don't think Niao Sun would be the one to do something like this. I think it's however pret...
Eww, Mario thanked me for my vote. Anyways I voted for Shenmue II and Shenmue, as well as for Sonic 3, Sonic Adventure 2 and Mafia. I'm interested to see, how this turns out. Since you have to write down the name of the game it could go all over the place if they somehow count misspelled games on th...
There must be something. Somewhere out there... Seems Sega reall takes a lot of care so none of it gets leaked. I'd really like to play the very early builds of Shenmue I and II and even more so the Saturn version.
I think Shenmue II is the better game all-around. I do agree that it feels different, but really not that much. Even though everything is a more hectic and action oriented the game is just so damn immersive. I get sucked into Wan Chai and Kowloon much more then into Dobuita or the harbor. The enviro...
Well, that's just what Ryo was told to look for. If Liu-san told him to look for members of the Yakuza, he would've done that. If Liu-san told him to look out for scantily clad women offering certain services, he would've done that too.
This is really awesome! Looks like something that Sega should have done in 1999 for the promotion of the game. Definatley something I'd like to print out in huge format and hang upon my wall. We need this in super-high-res!!
Really great stuff! You sure took a lot of time to make these. I find the "used look" of the NES and Genesis packshots to be a little bit extreme but damn, they do look real thanks to that. The picture of Ryo in Paris is incredible. Shenmue III graphics right there!
Unfortunately there're seemingly no officially correct sales figures for any of the Shenmue games. I have looked around on vgchartz and the numbers there are really low but I don't think they are correct. They are definately incomplete as they don't list anything for Shenmue II PAL.
It did indeed. Yeah, strange with such a japan-centric game but that's the way it is. Shenmue has a massively bigger cult going on in the west then it has in japan.
