Cedric tweeted something similar within the first couple of months of development. It's a bit of a leap to assume that this relates to a playable demo at E3, a year and a half before release.

High resolution photo from Shibuya's Facebook page. Maybe Switch can translate what's on the whiteboard?

Is this an Xbox 360 on the left side of the TV screen?

Maybe they use it to run Shenmue II

Hmm... why would they run shenmue 2 on 360 with all those audio issues and missing graphic effects tho?
Makes more sense to use the DC or Og Xbox instead

As expected, it's too soon for a gameplay video.



PSX 2016? TGS 2016?

Make your bet!

I do see a Dreamcast on the table, close to the TV and a jewell case close to it, probably Shenmue I or II

also

Here's what I can make out. The content is non-spoilerish.



"Dynamic seeds" sounds intriguing. (At least that's what I think the most likely translation is.)

Also the filename displayed here on the monitor suggests that the concept art we saw recently shows Bailu, "Hakka" being what its called in Japanese.

Some serious Shenmue feels over the past 24 hours.

The Xbox 360 is probably for a quick sesh on Halo 3 when they're feeling uninspired.

Yep.
If your translation is true, that basically means that they're attempting to reproduce what they did in Shenmue II with the Magic Maze (buildings, forest) to the NPC's faces of Shenmue III.

I'm wondering what results could the Magic Maze Process give on NPC faces...
