A developer talk VS an E3 or TGS announcement ?
I agree that there has been some buzz around Shenmue lately (mostly because of some great fans), announcing a game like this at GDC is just stupid, even by SEGA standards.
This kind of games just don't get announced at these events, this AT MOST (like really thinking they have been working on Shenmue in some sort) is just a little hype building like Molineaux did before he started Godus.
But my question is still relevant, no one really cares about the conference ?? I'm studying game development, so I'm really hyped for this, Shenmue is a landmark in videogame history, it would be nice to see him doing some real dev talking and not just doing some PR.
