I like Yu Suzuki's goal with the combat system. Looks like he's trying to make the fights look like they do in the cutscenes, hence the "choreography". However, I don't like the way Suzuki-san is going about it. Instead of making the combat system easier to make it more accessible for newc...

Why should a Virtua Fighter based system change to something Tekken based? I don't really like the thought of switching to something not YS and I don't like that system all that much honestly. More importantly Yu Suzuki is someone who doesn't get influence from other games so why would he ever thin...

First of all Shenmue 1 and 2 were on the dreamcast, so to exerience that tv thing you gotta purchase the game for p4 2nd You will need to sit on a couch and you need to be alone at home with a good audio surround system. If you have friends or family they need to stfu. 3rd The game must be physical...

So I was watching todays AVGN christmas episode and something really surprised me. The Nerd makes a funny joke about how just reading something fixes his car. He picks up some game magazines and flips through them. And out of all the things he has what is the first one? https://i.imgur.com/CWNAU23....

Shenmue 3 is a low budget game. It's not going to max out the power of the ps4 or anything like that. I think the graphics are going to be very similar on both platforms. Im getting both versions because there's no guarantee that a physical copy will be available when it's released. People say that...

Y'know whenever I think about the voice acting I just think to myself of all the classic martial arts movies from the 70s that everyone reveres with Bruce Lee and the like. Those dubs are not exactly Shakespearian either! I know video games with a large production budget might have different expect...

Good idea. I'll contact them by Kickstarter.

Leave this to Yu Suzuki. From what I've heard, he's going to have a revolutionary QTE system that has never been seen before. Real innovation once again!

Sounds too complicated and I'm sure Yu Suzuki said he's going to simplify the combat in SIII. The more complex the system, the better it is and the more depth and replay value the game will have. The fact that Yu Suzuki wants to simplify the combat is pretty worrying to me. I mean, it's not like th...

I've always thought that combat systems in games should be very deep and technical. In the case of Shenmue, it should accurately depict the depth and complexity of actual martial arts/fighting and Ryo's fighting style. One is a new 4 limb system (like Tekken) and the other is a modified version of S...

I hope they aim for the promo models. They've always looked WAY better than Dreamcast Ryo so I'd be disappointed if we get him looking like that. And besides, a new Shenmue should mean a newer and better Ryo since this is going to be the only chance they have to go for something else. You know, that...

I disagree about the combat. It's absolutely incredible and pretty much the best out of any game within its genre (like Batman Arkham, Yakuza, Sleeping Dogs etc.). I'd say that the combat is one of the many strong points of Shenmue. Also, on a kind of unrelated note I LOVE games that include a mix ...

I have to apologize for not updating recently. I just started a new job and just haven't had the time to sit down and play any Shenmue, unfortunately. I made it through the warehouse on the 14th, and did manage to play once on the 15th, but I haven't played at all since then. Gunna play some today ...

To be honest, I think they shouldn't have shown anything to anyone until E3 2018. That way, it'd build a lot of hype and anticipation for it. Then when they finally reveal an official full trailer of Shenmue III that blows everyone away and is basically a mic drop moment for them, it would have a H...
