Same here. I don't even own a PS4 at the moment (won't pick one up until SIII comes out) and currently game on PC (well, Windows on Mac), but with all the fuss over shoddy PC ports recently like Arkham Knight, and the impression I get that Yu will be working on the PS4 version first, with Cedric/Shibuya porting that version to PC, I think the PS4 version will be better on day one. I'll still want the PC version for 60fps and mods down the line, though.

Yeah, Sony aiding in the port/version is a good incentive.

Hopefully it's not "I'm at a NASA computer and shenmue III doesn't work", but they do some fine work.

Can someone help me which version I should choose? The PC version is going to be my main version, but being a Shenmue mega fan I want them all. If I had the money I'd make two KS accounts so I can get both the physical ps4 and the physical pc copy, but I can only go with one, and I'm not sure which one to go for due to rarity. Which one do you think will be more rare as time goes on? Will there be a retail ps4 version in stores? Will there be a retail PC version? I know this will be on Steam, so I'm not sure which to get.

I'll be on PC, but I'll buy the Ps4 version aswell to support Shenmue and Sony. Those who are worried about the PC version being buggy etc. You don't have to worry. The pc is the lead Dev platform for Shenmue 3 with Sony moving the game over to the Ps4 so we won't get any of this Arkham Knight shite lol

It really is going to be amazing to see what people can do with mods (after I've finished S3 10 times first ofcourse).

I'm getting both, but I will go PS4 first because publishing on the console is done by Playstation themselves so I can get a rough idea of the quality without having to worry about any PC style Batman surprises.

In addition to that, I don't know if the PC version uses Steam? Not that it matters, but I love having everything in Steam.

I'd say go to PS4 (backer edition).

Shenmue III will not get a PC physical, but honestly I don't see PC being released on stores... But also I don't see PC gamers really caring about that.

I'm not a collector, but as far as I know, that's the deal.

Aesthetically the PC version might look nicer without the PS branding.

I'm getting a pc box, but I'll buy a pc digital version when it is out. I hate spoiling collector editions by opening them. -)

In Yu we trust.

In this case, I'm afraid for the PS4 players. That means their version could be a downgrade of the PC, and downgrades are usually... not really good looking. But I'm probably wrong here as Sony is directly involved in the project.

Every game you have ever played on your PS4 was created on pc and "downgraded" to suit the PS4 hardware and architecture lol You have nothing to worry about, because as you said Sony are handling the Port so its all good :)

PC, though, I'll buy the PS4 version just to support Sony and their decision.

I dunno what version to get...I doubt this would happen, but I sure would be upset if I got the PC version and it didn't have proper gamepad support

Will probably go PS4 to be safe.

Although if PC had support for an Xbox One controller, It would be nice to have QTE's with XYBA in them still :D

PS4 version here. I don't have a PS4 yet but Shenmue will always be a console game to me, and that's how I want to enjoy S3. Also, I'm not interested in mods at all. I just want the pure vanilla experience.
