To me, the Shenmue series has been the most fulfilling gaming experience ever. Its amazing graphics, and overwhelming interactivity laft me totally astonished. Any of u guys Shenmue fans ? I think they' re such great games and should be enjoyed by gamers throughout the world

Any Shenmue fans ?

I love shenmue, its the coolest game eva!!!!

I was meaning to play Shemue 2 on my xbox, just never got around to it!

I' d go and get it If I where you - anyone I gave it to was amazed.

I love it - and agree - There' s no more fulfilling gaming experience than Shenmue .

And no game could ever surpass shenmue : yokosuka ...and then I played Shenmue 2 :)

Those are not games - those " products" save lives.
Shenmue cures cancer I tell you !!

AIDS? that' s silly - apply any QTE 2 times a day for a week and that' s it.

I feel left out. I actually HAVEN' T played a Shenmue game.

Anyone wanna lend me their Dreamcast?

I still have shenmue 2 for the dreamcast sitting nice and tidy behind me now, never played. Hopefully i will get a dreamcast to play it now, it must be a few months now since i got that...

Can i have your dreamcast?

I played the DC version of shenmue 2 and then the one from Xbox - guys definitely go for the Xbox version - it' s got some nice bonuses all over it.

What i like about shenmue apart from the graphics is the seriousness and " real" ness of the story. It almost feels like a socio-political game. It' s a statement. It' s a statement about Chinese/Japanese relations, it' s a statement about different martial arts styles, it' s a statement about people who leave their homeland to find greener pastures or to join loved ones in Amereeka/Canada (we all know who i' m talking about, hehe). I mean it feels like a true to life story, spiced up into a game. hehe.

It' s so good that it kinda feels sad even, that if (AND WHEN) Shenmue 3 comes out, that it will be the last in the series. No spinoff anyone? The story of Ryo' s and Nozomi' s little boy (or girl)? (yes, i still like the Ryo/Nozomi pair-up more than the Ryo/ShenHua (Sha Hua? forgot the name).

shenmue is a masterpiece the world will ever see again untill shenmue3 is out...

No way man! Ryo Isn' t going to pick Nozomi she is soo boring... I bet somehow Joy returns in S3 and saves ryo somehow.. hehe joy... she is so beautiful... (Nozomi is cute too though)

Another thing i like about Shenmue is the fact that we can relate to it in a different way from other RPG' s. While other RPG' s transport us to another world filled with wonder, Shenmue relates to us because, well, it' s more of a " it could happen to you" type thing.

And while the ending of Shenmue 2 hinted at it bordering on the supernatural (at least i think), both games still did a good job of literally being an intellectual property fit for an indie movie, but becoming a game instead.
