I reckon it would be higher if Amazon's search wasn't hiding it further down the listings. Might have changed now, but when I searched the other day, I specifically had to enter "Shenmue 1 & II" in the search field just to get it to appear. Searching just shenmue was bringing up a whol...

Thank you so much for clearing that up GhostTrick!

I'd honestly rather just play the game stretched like it is on my Original Dreamcast version.... Ewwww stretched? :P I guess I disagree anyways. I'm so against it that there's a TV series I wanted on bluray and that I refused to buy (sticking with my old dvd boxset), because they changed the aspect...

That being said, I realized there's an easy way for them to address the very few scenes in 1 that don't work out while expanded to 16x9. Just do the same thing that TV shows like the X-Files did when the first 4 seasons which were originally 4x3 got remastered for 16x9. When the footage didn't allo...

Ah that does kind of explain it. That's unfortunate, but I don't know if it can be avoided?

Honestly, it's looking very nice. I'm really looking forward to these being released. I wanted to play through the games again before Shenmue 3's release and it's great to have them on modern consoles.

I think people get HD, Remaster and definitive editions confused. HD port is simply that. A port of a game to a new system with HD video resolution and very few other fixes. Remaster is where a game is completely revamped from the ground up, and is given new model geometry, and textures to both the...

That's par for the course when it comes to SEGA though. They've never actually called their remasters "remasters". Look at the steam version of Sonic Adventure 2 for example. It's an HD remaster by all definitions, but it's simply listed as "Sonic Adventure 2". The same goes Jet...

It seems like we as fans have built up our expectations, when Sega have never hyped these up as being amazing, 'definitive HD remasters'. To me it feels like quite the opposite. A lot of 'fans' here have done nothing but downplay and criticise these remasters despite SEGA pushing them massively and...

I think the fact Sega are not marketing or referring to this collection as either HD, Remastered or Definitive speaks volumes. Maybe I'm wrong? It seems like we as fans have built up our expectations, when Sega have never hyped these up as being amazing, 'definitive HD remasters'. Look, I made a pos...

I only have experience with GAME, ShopTo and Amazon, but can confirm that ShopTo still ship games early, although it's not quite as consistent as it used to be. With ShopTo, you tend to get games one day early and sometimes as much as three days early. I'll explain how it currently works: If game co...

Anyone know much about porting, remastering and emulators. A lot of people seem to suggest that it's "obvious" that these are just being emulated (i.e. it will be an emulator running the games).

This is the problem with remasters. In an ideal world, the player would be able to customise the ezperience for themselves. Personally, I'm not a fan of the Xbox port, but it has enough enhancements that means fans are generally split down the middle on which version they prefer, as there are pros a...

I've even stopped getting an English and Japanese version of each Yakuza game (stopped at 0), simply because I can devote those funds to other needs.

Same, but I mean it does help that Sega has finally started given Western audiences the Yakuza love they deserve.

Considering that Shenmue 3 voice acting starts being recorded soon, I don't agree with any of the people saying mid to late 2019 on that. If they're doing VO, most of the scenes and dialogue are already locked down and we should expect the game less than a year after they start recording. So April ...
