Man i just wished Sega would just go out of business already and sell the Shenmue IP to Sony.

Also, I'll be better if Sega would just not even respond to that tweet because it gives people hope for nothing to come..... what's the point of responding? So they look good? they've being doing this exact crap so much that i doubt anyone would believe them at this point.

Another thread already mentioned this and i honestly don't think much of it, Sega always likes to tease and look good to the fans but do nothing at the end. It's a shame.

Shenmue III Spoilers!!

I''ll just leave this here.....

I tried playing some Life is strange.... wasn't feeling it... woah man, that dialogue... ugh... *cringe*

On a good note though, Enjoying the crap outta Gravity Rush Remastered.

Wow, this could really lead to something exciting, would love to hear a potential partnership where shenmue gets more funding support for product placement (as long as it's not too obtrusive/detrimental to the game).

I hate to think how the media would react to such news though, but screw them, they're not getting between us and the game...

I've been going trough some hard ones, but every time life hits me hard, i just think of S3 coming and of those words from Tom, and i keep that smile no matter what life throws at me.

Not to be getting too off topic but i myself tried the undub of shen1 and it just didnt feel right. For me Corey Is Ryo and maybe its just nostalgia but growing up with shen1 in the us and shen2 on xbox, it just feels right. Tom/Ren/Guizang/Fukuhara, all of these characters just feel right for me in english and so i prefer the games in English.
I however always saw Shen 1 and 2 as equally great in different ways.

SOO HYPED

Sailor porn?

I keep telling myself everyday... whats the catch? i mean, shenmue 3 existing.. like... this is too good to be true.....

Loving my new wallpaper!

The best way to ensure SIII selling 1mil will be obviously a HD of 1 and 2, looking back at other Sony IPs, they brought Uncharted 123 on ps4 to introduce new people to 4, they brought Gravity Rush Remastered to ps4 to introduce new people to GR2, and i hope that just like how Sony teamed up with Sega to localized some of the Yakuza games, they can do the same again with Sega and get Shenmue 1 and 2 off the ground. The fact is, there has never been a Shenmue game before on a PlayStation platform so it would be smart for Sony to push Sega to do a collection for new players so that 3 can be a bigger success.

I want Shenmue III to take full advantage of the technological progress that's occurred. Let the modders handle retro stuff.
Or even better lets hope ysnet can give us an option for retro controls, it will suck having to rely on modders since most of us are gonna play it on PS4.
And idk if im just old fashioned but I will be bumped out if i have to play Shen3 with analog sticks without an option to switch back to dpad, for me its one of the charms of Shenmue having a dpad controls system that makes the games so unique imo.

I''ll take shenmue 3 on a cd-r with sharpie in it, aslong as its shenmue 3

It was part of the character, i would be disappointed if its changed.

Jelly!!! i wish these were released physically here in the US.. darn

Its cool that cedric wanted shenmue 3 on dc but yeah, that would have been suicide in terms of sales, HOWEVER, i would have loved if Shenmue 3 was on ps4/pc with retro DC graphics ala megaman 9/10. I mean there is a market for retro indie games so it could've work.. Modern UE4 graphics are fine and all but theres just something for me on how Shenmue 1 and 2 look that its unmatched from everything imo.

Did this while i was bored

I can already see what AJ is gonna do next...

Project Update #55
Here we give you the Monaco Pics in FULL GLORIOUS 240P black and white JPGED Cropped.

I don't know how he's going to do it...
If he had a dollar for every time he's heard that in his career he probably wouldn't have needed Kickstarter. :lol:
Yeah, true. We aren't talking here about some random average indie team, we are talking about the Legend Yu Suzuki, the guy has been doing this for even longer that some of us have been alive. The guy knows what he is doing.
Nobody would doubt a Kickstarter of Kojima, or Miyamoto, so no one should doubt that Suzuki will deliver even with a more strict budget.
#InYuWeTrust

where are the black and white Monaco pictures in 144p?

Shenmue 3 has evolved into Shenchinko 3 for Pachinkos only, developed by Konami! YAY

I'm with Peter, as long as i have the game, gimme shenmue 3 on a freaking sharpie, idc

Wait a sec... but it wasn't Sony, wtf, how could they get Sony and Sega mix up?!

R.I.P. SegaBox 360

I just got the new Ratchet and Clank game and wow, what a revelation, is hella fun. Feels like a old school ps2 game with brand new graphics. Enjoyed it quite a bit.

Eh, at least we are waiting for a update of Shenmue III and not the actual game being confirmed anymore....

Where do those bloody sailors hang out?!

Shenmue HD of course

I'm gonna purchase a 4K TV and boot up dat baby on the PC at 4K.

Shenmue II has a 88 on Metacritic which is pretty solid for a game that is so polarizing on reviewers. I have a feeling this new collection is gonna have a much lower score due to standards changing for people.

I know people wanted a save transfer for III but has it even been confirmed that you will have a save transfer from 1 to 2?

Thanks GOD that they didn't lose the Source Code.

Dat Ryo and Nozomi one looks REALLY good! Seems like some bloom lighting is in effect. Don't mind the 4:3 if it's gonna look that good. But we will see.

I really think we could be a little biased when it comes to the pictures since we love the games so much but that's ok. Still can't wait to see how the modern gamers are going to react to these games. Despite the graphics not being up to current standards these games are too speciaI that i'm sure people would get over that.
Will be sure to be on the lookout on Twitch for any streamers when this hits. I wonder if most newcomers will choose the English voices or Japanese? :-k

I'm 17 and I know about it! And I told my friend he is 15 and is turning 16 next month he seems to like it!
I'm sorry to say this but you are the exception my friend. Most 17 year old gamers are mindlessly playing things like fortnite or pubg. Shenmue is mostly a old mans game in this age.
Hopefully this HD collection brings new fans and younger gamers aboard, i wanna believe there's more 17 year olds like you who can see the value of these games despite their age and not having the ''shiniest'' visuals or online components.

Yeah like Jibby said, i'm not worried about Yu Suzuki not being involved since these are essentially ports. And considering the images we've seen and the philosophy that Sega Europe/d3t is going for, they are making sure these ports are very faithful to the original and the original vision of Yu Suzuki.

After SOTC I actually would be much worried if say Bluepoint gave Shenmue the remake treatment. I remember the constant threads and articles talking about the design and visuals and art direction differing from the original, i much rather have the actual 100 percent original games/code and assets faithfully ported to make sure that YS vision isn't being meddle with. Hell, personally i wouldn't mind if these games were kept fully in 4:3 and with the original HUD but i know i'm on a minority even in here on that. :)

Just not having to rely on my aging dreamcast with disc reading issues or stuttery/inaccurate emulation to play these 2 masterpieces is really what i'm looking the most forward to.

I'm also really interested headin to twitch and see if any popular streamers pick up the game and what they think about it.

Just plain jain having these 2 amazing games on modern platforms is all i need. Is more convenient for us and it will bring a new audience. The best of both worlds. Im ok with no 60fps or 16:9 for the entire game ect. The modern controls are a plus and great and all but i won't be using them. Tbh my biggest concern is the lack of a loading screen. It's just too iconic to remove and i'm sure these modern platforms can load these games in a instant so i wonder what they will do.

Just thank you SEGA :king:

I won't sell mine because i feel Dreamcast still has some software im interested in and emulation for it still isn't to my liking. Is interesting though seeing people on this topic that value the hardware and others who value the software no matter where its located. I'm probably on the first camp but i might budge and sell or get rid of my DC once emulation improves since my DC is really being a pain lately with disc reading issues and im not the type to keep a non working console around on display.
