60fps might be pie in the sky if the engine won't allow for it.

I don't know if UE is running on the background, but I think the video they showed was frameskipping.

Fuuuuck, I want this game YESTERDAY

On to the feedback:
1. Why are all of the Shenmue 1 screenshots in 4x3? We've already managed to patch the Dreamcast version to run in 16x9, so why can't they?
2. The voice clip in the trailer is from the Dreamcast original and not the original higher quality recordings present in Sega All Stars racing. While this isn't a big deal, if they have the original 44100hz recordings they should be using them.
3. Not featured in the trailer or hinted at in any way, but I hope they offer the original renderings for the music as an option now that they have room for them. (See Shenmue Online, Shenmue 3 interviews)

The updated watch in the HUD seems to ditch the Timex style. I'm guessing this is intentional and the port will lose some branding.


Is it me or there is no mention about 60fps yet?


It's very unlikely since it'd break the game.

This is unbelievable.. I cannot describe how happy I am. I also cannot stop watching that beautiful trailer. Wish I could hug SEGA.

This is wonderful news! It goes without saying I'm so looking forward to getting my hands on this and playing through. But of course now it's so much better to know with total confidence that it really is on its way.

D3T is listed as the developer on Steam... as they don't appear to have any other credits, are they some sort of subsidiary of Sega that was formed for this project? Or does anyone know something beyond what's listed on Steam?

I agree.

While it's pretty easy for them to unlock the framerate, I'm pretty sure all of Shenmue's animation was done as fixed frames. Thus for example when you ran down the crowded street in front of Tomato mart the game would actually slow down instead of skipping frames. They CAN pull off 60fps if they update all of their animations to account for it (SquareEnix did it for the Kingdom Hearts HD collection) but that requires someone to review everything by hand. Interpolation will only get them some of the way there.

But if they did do it the result is very nice, as seen in the trailer I posted a few weeks back.

Guys.. we did it. After all the hastags and pestering and waiting and wondering... wonder no longer. This is real life.. I cant believe we will all be able to walk into a store sometime THIS YEAR and buy the games that started it all again.
I mean think about it..many of us will also download too but, we will all be able to hold a brand new shrink wrapped Shenmue game to peel open and put into a system again.
It's gonna be like I'm 13 again.
Simply mind blowing.

Interesting to see it translated in other languages. Shame that there's no Spanish, Italian or Portuguese though since III stretch goals had all of those.
