What Is Shenmue? - An Introduction on Youtube

A fascinating look at the Shenmue franchise has been posted on Youtube by 'a.winner.is.yu', chronicling the series' most revered aspects.

The video, titled 'What Is Shenmue?', gives newcomers and veterans alike a look at why Shenmue was so ahead of its time and why HD remakes of both Shenmue 1&2 are a necessity.

The entire ten-minute video can be seen here.

i don't recall seeing this actual video before. :-k
and that tune has got to be one of the most depressing i've heard for a while (00:00 - 02:02) a bit like PSO when you complete a mission for 'shino' the droid, looking for her master, and she....no spoilers. :cry: (god, i cried like a little girl after that mission.)
thanks for sharing. :mrgreen:
wahey! coke and fanta mods too! :P

Yea, I posted this video on this site just yesterday my self, because it shocked me how few people have evidently seen this awesome video, infact It's possibly the best Shenmue video to date.

I was lucky to find this video the day it was actually uploaded to Youtube, and needless to say, I'm shocked it doesn't have atleast 100k views by now, seriously this video should've went viral.

grateful you found and shared. (only realized that by clicking the interior link above to the forum subject.)
passed it around to others that are too scared to sign up, and get involved. (and i certainly don't blame em.)
again, thanks a lot for the share, have another! :mrgreen:
