I've read a few interviews this morning, so I can't remember which one it was, but Yu has confirmed there will be no more Shenmue III material at Gamescom.

Yu's customary picture with Sony reps. Apparently they're called Florian and Hector, we've seen them before in a picture from last year. Florian is actually the guy who gave the quote in the Deep Silver press release I believe.

I just got back after about three hours of driving (midnight here now). The meet and greet went smoothly I think and there were more people for the meet and greet than I had expected. Another interesting part was that I got to meet a few Dojo members and other fans from outside this place.

I don't know the "full list" actually since some were in the city but not at the meet and greet today as far as I know. I guess that it would be better to ask Peter since he was on the show floor and would also have a drink with some others afterwards. Unfortunately, I couldn't stay for that since I needed to drive home right after the show.

Oh man, I'm still a bit exhausted from the trip and the whole event.

It was amazing to meet you guys! I was just too thrilled to have the chance to get together with other fans and to see Yu Suzuki in person, shake hands with him. I must've looked totally freaked out all the time. And then out of all the people they had to chose me, posing with Yu Suzuki, as the first picture in the article on that Japanese website... 8-[

I'll post some of my photographic impressions of the Gamescom compiled into a little video later today. Still trying to process all of this and catch up with everything here. I'm just so happy that everything worked out so nicely! =D>

An spanish website will put a full interview with Suzuki, but at the moment, they have a few highlights:

"I'm afraid of not meeting expectations". "Not only do we have a budget and a limited team, but nostalgia is a dangerous factor. People can remember the game much prettier or better than it actually was."


- Suzuki wants to make Shenmue 4 after Shenmue 3.
- The scope of Shenmue 3 will be similar to Shenmue 2.
- The game will be oriented a bit more to adventure instead of more action.
- About 30h of gameplay.

Was good to meet some of you guys yesterday.

Being able to talk face to face with people who like Shenmue as much or even more so than you is a nice thing.

For those who figure out just who I am from yesterday. Yeah I talk a lot more in person than I do here.
As I said was nice meeting you guys.

Now maybe I'll go back to lurking like I've been doing here since 2007 :)
