I'm a big fan of Shenmue so this is good news;

Won't be going for more than $15 or so I hope...

Cool, this was my first DC game, I loved it to bits

This is even better as I never got to play Shenmue 2

Awesome, looking forward to it... never finished it... now I'm torn between firing up the Dreamcast or waiting for this :P

Man I'd love if they made a PC version of this...

Shenmue was such an awesome game on the dreamcast.

Well you can... but it looks like ass. With this I hope they cleaned it up a little

Hooray!

Not Shenmue III, but bloody brilliant news anyway.

Never played or seen any footages of it *too lazy to google*

Give us the basic giest - Jrpg?

Philll · 21st April 2012, 10:32 PM

Was pretty amazing stuff for its time

It's probably not going to be all that great for people who didn't play it. Back in the day, its FREE (Fully Reactive Eyes Entertainment - bad name I know) was pretty impressive and it was the most expensive game ever made.

I've already played through the first and 2nd game twice. Must I play though it a 3rd time before I get to see Shenmue 3.

While Shenmue was a great game back in the Dreamcast era I'm wondering if it will hold up today. Graphically it needs a fair bit of work since much of the content was created for the Saturn version of the game (which never released) so some of the models were even a little too blocky for Dreamcast graphics let alone now. Also some good voice overs would be good. The Dreamcast Japanese version sounded more natural than the bad English dub.
