Hey OP, I know it's not the solution but assuming that you own a PS4 console: remote play works pretty well and I imagine the game to support it (like most ps4 titles within custom controls etc) I know it means you'd have to be around the house (unless remote play works for vita 3G models? I imagine...

Even if there's not a toggle in game, I can see there being a .ini tweak to reduce/disable it. 100% agreed. If MS managed to disable motion blur with the Xbox 360 emulator running the game off a disc in real-time: D3T should be able to do that and more with the source code at hand. I have no doubts...

The Silver Case is £9.99 on PSN today, I haven't actually played this but I hear so much positive buzz surrounding it here and elsewhere that I'm going to consider getting it.

Can't speak for the blur, but the overdone bloom effect in Shenmue IIx hasn't been very apparent in the screens and footage we've had of I & II. It either wasn't working at the time the screens were taken, is getting reworked with a subtler implementation, or might be something we can turn off ...

I think it'll be 2-3 seconds, which seems fine tbf as I like hearing the music setting the tone as well as a reminder of the time while still appearing seamless. The ability to skip an arbitrarily-extended loading screen by pressing start sounds neat in theory but I worry that it'll condition newcom...

https://www.365games.co.uk/search/shenmue If you're from the UK then I would recommend preordering the game from 365games.co.uk as they're on for sale for the lowest price as far as I'm aware. You don't even have to register an account before you make your order as they give you the option to pay v...

(although I gotta say, it is nice for the UK to get preferential treatment with games for once! :D Even if this is only a preorder I'll take any win i can get :) ) Heeeeeey now, you guys actually got S2 on Dreamcast with full Japanese audio back in the day, while the US got shafted....

I can't believe nobody has noticed and pointed out that the whole opening cut-scene from Shenmue 1 on the HD collection trailer totally lacks the bluish fog effect from the original version and looks completely bare :???: I know it's still in development though *edit Sorry, I see now it has been me...

I think he's now updated that number to "10%" during the recent live stream (which makes sense because we're aware of a few more things since he mentioned 5%) but I wonder how much pertain to the game's features/content and how much is just general info (like release/marketing plans etc). ...

er...one? is it more of a success if we spike the sales by buying multiple copies? :-k well erm, yeah, because the sales in some cases were 4x better than anticipated haha O:) ...doesn't matter who buys, or how many, a sale is a sale. sure, but are you that pessimist regarding it's success? and i m...

Either waiting for very late at night/very early morning (where I'll have some undisturbed time to myself) cranking up the surround sound and setting up Phillips Hue lights to a cool blue (for the first game) and scarlet red (for the second game) along with a side of sparkling water (for the first g...

Nah, it represents too much joy for me. I have a broken one on display and a working one packed away that I barely use. We still have Project Justice: Rivals Schools 2 exclusive to DC as well as the original console versions of Powerstone 1 and 2. Also lots of beautiful jank like confidential missio...

All I will say is that for technical reasons parts of the game are currently limited to 4:3. If you play the game in an emulator with a widescreen hack you will see some of the issues. We've ported the xbox version of Shenmue II so yes it does have stencil shadows. Thank you for letting us know! Th...

Welcome to the dojo Allan, and thank you and the team for your hard work and for keeping us up to date, very much appreciated!

Hi. PS4 owner here. Just wondering, do I have to own an Xbox One to purchase games digitally for a friend without resorting to buying a credit code? I'd prefer to purchase Shenmue 1&2 directly for them, but they like their library to be all digital. I've seen some games on Amazon being sold as ...
