Isn' t the theme for tgs this year new generation new.........something or other can' t remember but I dunno if shenmue would get a look in, I hope so but if anything I think it might be the online crap mentioned.

For the greatest game of all time, you' d think there' d be something at any rate, to preserve the original game on a more up-to-date console. I have gone through about three or four Dreamcasts just so I never lose the ability to play the first game, which was unique in so many ways - and still stands up very well against any other human-character video game I' ve ever seen. Nobody else ever programmed NPCs the way Yu did. The game is seven years old and on a long-superceded console, and yet uses on-the-fly character animation techniques which have rarely been matched, let alone bettered. I couldn' t give a flying monkeys if the only people that bought it were me and ten other people from the Dojo. The Game. Deserves. Better.

There are two rules to success:

1. Never tell all you know.

As i said,i thinkl there has been talk about putting out shenmue and put a end into it with the third installment.

However SEGA is co-developing a lot of games and publish a lot of games,and i think it' s up to how well these games sells before Shenmue3 will shows up or not.

Even if you break 2 legs from a crab it still runs!
What you gotta do is find its weak spot and do massive damage at it.

Like the turn of the millenium, clocks will stop at the release of Shenmue 3.

I know mine will, in fact, life won' t really matter, neither will consoles or food.

For 2 weeks, I will live in that game.

I CAN' T WAIT! I LOVE IT!!!! <shrieks in delight>

Since it' s guarantied that we fans will pay anything for it, can' t they just release Shenmue 3 with a $150 price tag? I' d buy it

I want to thank you all for having this discussion and bringing up a point I myself have often contemplated: when do videogames become more than an endeavor to make money? At what point (if any) is a videogame publisher obligated to remake a game or continue a series simply because it would be a sin not to; regardless of price? I mean certainly, when you finnish an NBA or GTA clone, you toss them in the bin without a second thought; but some games are simply too special to be let go. After all this is art! And while videogames are not as widely recognised a form of art as literature or music or even film, those of us who have been touched by this medium know the truth. I guess what I' m trying to say is... GIVE US ANOTHER ZOE GAME DAMMIT!!!

But seriousely, thank you for allowing me to vent; this is a subject very dear to my heart. There is no substitute in my life for the impact MGS, FF7, or Shadow of the Colossus have had.

I think we' re so far past that point that there' s very little point in going on about it. Shenmue 3 could only now be a disappointment, the Shenmue series' s The Godfather Part III. Sega have been through their various travails, and are back on an even keel as far as I know, so it' s just a matter of making a decision to make it, and I just don' t think it' s any part of their ongoing plans. In other words, I don' t believe they are waiting on the sales of anything else prior to greenlighting Shenmue 3. My concern nowadays is solely that Shenmue: Yokosuka is preserved in some future-playable form. Ideally, that would be a PC version. No upgrades, no fancy tricks - just the original game exactly as it first appeared, accorded the status of Classic that it so deserves.

Thats wat im talking about i love ZOE and ICO 2 AMEN to ya papado

Rest in PEACE Cetra and GANGSTA you guys will be missed..........

And why is that relevant in a thread about Shenmue 3?!

Oh, i see! Because everybody think' s you' re a muppet you thought you' d try and secure some support. Sony-biased support at that.

His post is about Shenmue 3, yours isn' t. Stay on topic.

If I don' t get to play the ending I want to read it or watch it at least . Somehow I must know how it ends! Otherwise, in my mind, Ryo will be in an eternal sleep somewhere in Guilin, China with that retarded girl (man, she sure says retarded stuff when you' re walking with her in the mountains). Time does not move on until Ryo moves on.
But Yu said that the story would be finished through games so a third game has to be made. Has to!

HEY! She is no retard.

I think they got it spot on with the clueless mountain girl, remember she was
raised away from humane civilisation. She' s obviously gonna have loadsa
?' s, which she asks..

I can' t believe you called her a retard..

Ok, retard is a little exaggerated but she does sound stupid sometimes even for a mountain girl. Maybe it' s not the questions themselves but the way she puts them. Or maybe it' s the voice, I don' t know.
I still like her character and the role she had in the game.

Did you play the English ver?

She sounds great in japanese!

So I can understand if you called her a retard for the english ver...

Apparently she has actual power, like fathomable power... So Lan Di says...

I' ve played both versions.
But whatever, she didn' t sound that stupid. She just made me laugh a couple of times .

She has the power to make me laugh. I guess that' s what he was talking about.

You' re the devil in disguise aren' t you?

Your entrance date is a bit late, guess you missed the flight for the 666 hellgate?

Have you guys seen the Shenmue " project berkley" trailer?

since you mention shen hua (or is it sha hua ...i never got it) has some sort of power...

i guess that in shenmue 3 we would get to see what it was...(remember when she made all those flowers fly on the mountains?)

personally i rather there was no super power because shenmue is all about real life and knuckle fight

I know, there is a risk of the game turning out utterly stupid... This is Sega!
I can' t really think of any of their good franchises where they have gone
completely balls up in sequels... (Don' t mention Sonic... Doesn' t count)

Anything from AM2... NOW you can definitely mention that..

She also managed to push the sword in when Ryo couldn' t.. I think that has
something to do with her being of pure spirit.. And Ryo is tainted with revenge..

then i am glad that Ryo didn´t tainted her pure spirit when he slept in her house the night before that

then i am glad that Ryo didn´t tainted her pure spirit when he slept in her house the night before that

I am so happy Sega didn' t pull a " hot coffee" moment.. I would have been
mentally scarred and never played that game again. Thank God she is still pure,
I think Ryo is too.. The way he goes on around Joy and Nozomi, you' d think
he' s a f*cking priest!

haha...but don´t forget one of the nights he slept in Xiuying´s room the camera focus ryo looking to xiuying sleeping then he turns is back with a frustrated face...

probably thinking " i can´t touch her...she would kick my ass"

haha...but don´t forget one of the nights he slept in Xiuying´s room the camera focus ryo looking to xiuying sleeping then he turns is back with a frustrated face...

Well, he obviously loves older women, he gives more bodily contact to Xiuying and
Ine-san, and loves beating up Yuan... (the woman with the guile haircut)

If he was gonna stick with someone it should have been Xiuying...

Ryo loves manly contact IMHO..

When you connect his unresponsiveness to women he doesn' t have to do anything to get them into bed, coupled with his puppy dog eyes when he thought he' d won Ren a load of money fighting (when he' d lost him that money) and the high five during the chase, all leads to only one conclusion, I' m afraid.....

Don' t say it

well...maybe he is so into revenge that he can only see Lan Di in everyone...

once he gets his revenge he will be a player...better watch out for sifilis ryo

Coming to think of it ryo was more intrigued by tom going to america than nozomi to canada. He looked disappointed when he found out lishao tao is a woman, he effortlessly agreed to stay with ren in his ' ' hideout' ' mast makes me wonder now what is ryos true reason for chasing after lan-di...........ryo is funny though I loved when nozomi sat him down and went ' ' ryo i' m going away soon' ' and he was more or less like ' ' yea that' s nice...I hope you have a good time' ' when you could see she was pining for him to say ' ' oh nozomi please don' t go we can run away together and lots of adventures and babies' ' .

I' m beginning to see now why some people find it hard to understand why I like Shenmue so much...
NINTENDOSEGANINTENDOSEGANINTENDOSEGANINTENDOSEGANINTENDOSEGA

Here' s something to ponder... what Sega coin-ops should be emulated within Shenmue 3? The storyline should be in the 1987-1988 range.... there' s some heavyweights in that era...

Shinobi
Power Drift
Galaxy Force
Thunder Blade
Altered Beast

maybe some wildcards like

Fantasy Zone II
Gain Ground

???

Uh... Ryo had a Sega Saturn in Shenmue 1 so I think any SEGA game ever made could work in Shenmue 3 even though it would require some time travel. I' d like to see Ryo with a portable console so you can play anytime and anywhere in the game without having to pay. I guess it' s quite obvious what portable it would be.
