Shenmue 2 works on the Xbox360, just tried it.

I hate how the Xbox360 can' t do pure black for Xbox games, it' s kind of a dark grey instead.

It does not run in widescreen, however it is upscaled to 720p (what I have my 360 set at) with black bars on the sides. The in-game black bars (like for " cinema" sequences and the like) are a lot brighter than the black bars on the sides.

Chobot likes hentai, porn, conspiracy theories, Nine Inch Nails, Snatch and videogames. She' s pretty fucking cool. IGN do not deserve the woman, she needs to come to Kikizo!!!

Saying that, we do have Byakko!


Yep. Byakko could be the coverage over in Asia, now we need to cover America
and the Uk..

Can you imagine if Kikizo were the first in all three main gaming areas?

Can Byakko speak japanese though?

Very well written. Unfortunatey it' s a pipe-dream, but nevermind, i dont mind buying it being exclusive to PS3 as i' ll be buying one at launch anyway. VF5 is gonna be absolutely amazing!

I never seen the attraction of VT, plays like every other fighter to me, I don' t get all this ' thinking 20 moves ahead' stuff.

Maybe I just rock too much.

Dont get me wrong, it isn' t a bad game, I like Soul Caliber, the first one on the Dreamcast was the best, since 2 and 3 where just silly ports, not real sequels. I like Tekken, I like Dead or alive, come to think of it, Not much fighters I dont like.

...Maybe the Street Fighter 3d games makes that list [:' (]

Nice read, I agree with what you said except that making VF online would be very different than DOA. In other words, it is impossible to make it online without sacrificing everything that makes it great. Same thing with Tekken and Soul Caliber. Collision detection is a bit more complex in good fighters then it is in Fighters like DOA and the bandwidth of Broadband is not high enough to support the data that would need to be sent back and fourth constantly.

Regarding that letter. VF5 is coming to 360. Or at least this has been the unannounced plan since early 06. They just need to do the whole pretending to love PS3 at the moment. So relax...

Hopefully he can tell us that Sega is planning a new console and that it will be black, not have a super loud laser motor, won' t break down, will have great controllers and will last. All the things the Dreamcast wasn' t.

Dreamcast had Shenmue! which I believe all other sega platforms didnt have [it was in development for the Saturn but was transfered to the DC]

That way the Dreamcast wins.

Shenmue doesn' t make the Dreamcast system great. It was still a horribly designed P.O.S. system.

Not another one of you. There are so many Shenmue fans on this forum
Welcome to Kikizo MIC

Joe, lets be real, you hate anything newer than the Sega Genesis
I dont want to celebrate, I want to sell you hate.

Wrong. I love the Saturn and I am enjoying my Xbox360. I am trying to play Shenmue right now but my Dreamcast won' t let me due to the random freezes. My Dreamcast won' t play Daytona USA anymore, either. Why not? No reason whatsoever. It just won' t boot. My Dreamcast worked great 6 months ago. Absolutely nothing has happened since then, it has just decided to become complete ass. The Dreamcast is shit. There is no way I can play Shenmue again since it is not on another, more reliable system.

I actually agree with Joe about the Dreamcast, but then again my feelings about the system has never been a secret.

I hated the system' s audio player (the worst interface I' ve ever seen, who the hell creates a CD Player without a forward and back search feature????????), and I hated the controller (tiny buttons, clunky looking controller).

On the other hand I LOVED the Saturn. It had the best audio player of all the game systems past and present, and the controller was AWESOME! I mean, can someone explain to me how the Saturn controller had 9 buttons (including ' Start' ) but the Dreamcast had LESS???

It actually still surprises me how well-loved the Dreamcast is considering how many gamers desire memorable console-exclusive gaming experiences and the majority of the Dreamcast' s offerings were arcade ports with only a few console-exclusive gems to be had. ;)..

I would... but I can leave Dead or Alive 2 in there running and it doesn' t freeze or have any problems at all. I' m not buying a new system if the problem is the discs. Dreamcast game discs suddenly deciding not to boot for no reason whatsoever is an issue. I' m going to try resurfacing and seeing if that works. If not, your Dreamcast game discs will someday soon simply rot away into uselessness. And Shenmue won' t fit on a CD-R, to my knowledge.

PS - Also, my system is modded to play foreign games from non America-land. I don' t want to give up that feature by getting a new system.

Regarding VF5 on 360 from earlier in this thread:



1UP:
AM2: Regarding the rumor that you heard that Lindbergh and Xbox 360 hardware are closer, that' s not actually true. The PS3 is closer because of the same video chip, which is why we decided to create VF5 on PS3. However, we think that the 360 is a great piece of hardware, so there is a chance that we will create something on 360. It' s not that we want to concentrate only on PlayStation 3. As to whether we' ve got anything scheduled at this point, we don' t have anything that we can announce at this time.

1UP: I' m going to read between the lines here. Nice.

I don' t trust that Adam... You haven' t linked to any Kojima Production
sources... So you can go to hell..

So it' s a timed exclusive on the PS3 then?

Virtua Fighter 5 will never be released on the 360 because the depth in the game is so big that it wouldn' t fit on anything else than a Blu-ray disc...
