I enjoyed it on Dreamcast.
It doesn't need to be bigger than that. Keep it that size but just take it to the next gen? That'd be awesome!I mean, I said it earlier...I have no idea why a first party would pay for this. But as a fan, I'm ok with Suzuki making a visual novel or an endless runner or whatever if it delivers to conclusion to the story. Again, it's really important to note, though, that the world would not be big. Shenmue was never about OMG 5 BILLION SQUARE FOOT WORLD OF BETHESDA JANK TO EXPLORE or whatever. The first game is pretty small, actually-- Ryo's home, the surrounding neighborhood, a city area of a few blocks of shops, and then I guess the downtown harbor. It just worked though.
wasnt shenmue 2 a xbox exclusive?
Why are people so sure it's gonna be PS4 exclusive?
I know. That wouldn't make for a very good gif though. The bet basically amounts to the same. Mentioning Shenmue without some sort of follow-up would unleash the hounds.Huber changed his bet. Its not "Shenmue in any capacity" anymore, its "a Shenmue game will be announced."

This video explains why Sega will live forever. One way or another.
Check this thread out right noooooooow!
What if its Shenmue 1 remastered in VR? Now you can open drawers in VR!!!!
It's not really a meme, it's a common phrase that's used in many forms of media outside of gaming. I didn't really mean it in a negative sense, I was just genuinely curious if these games are still as interesting and fun as they once were because I know a large part of the allure of Shenmue was how innovative and refreshing it felt at the time... But I guess since there hasn't been much like it since, it still captures that feeling.
In a way, I think Shenmue has aged so well because it simply does things no other game does. It hasn't been outclassed in those areas because it just doesn't have any competition. It moves to the beat of its own drum.
This is a game where you can call your friends on the phone for absolutely no reason and than have really awkward conversations. You can go to the convenience store and spend a bunch of time trying to find the right food for an abandoned kitten. You can try to bury your grief for your dead father by distracting yourself with arcade games and gambling. More than any other game I've played you really felt that you are this person, this is your life, this is your house, these are your friends... and all of it has been tainted by this horrible event that has shattered your life.
In most games the heroes just leap into action with no consequences, but every bold thing you do in Shenmue you constantly feel the ways in which you are scaring and hurting the people around you who care about you.
It is just the best.

Sweet. So was the Dreamcast still alive in Europe and Japan at that point?.
I would assume so considering they bothered to do that and not give the U.S the same thing.

Final Bets on Gametrailers. They uploaded it yesterday.Never seen this. Video link?
So what's the general consensus here in relation to Suzuki's tweet?
Shenmue 1/2 HD remaster or Shenmue 3 reveal?
Dreamcast was cancelled in 2001 (from memory) so it was one of the last major titles. I always thought it was weird that it didn't come out in US. Maybe the first one did badly. The PAL version was localised with voice, only subtitles (unlike the original).

Couldn't Yu Suzuki being there mean more Virtua Fighter?
THIS IS STILL HYPEEEE.Come on GAF. We're already getting The Last Guardian this E3, having Shenmue 3 also show up would be silly. At best we'll get 1 and 2 remastered/HD.

Ah I see, thanks for the backstory.
That's interesting, I wonder why they opted to go Microsoft?

I always wondered what announcement could make NeoGaf freeze.
I don't mean melt or give server issues
Freeze as in; people would stop posting in other threads and any other gaming related news/info/question would sound trivial and inappropriate at that time.
Can't think of a single announcement that would grab everyone's attention and become everyone's only videogame related concern or thought, of course, but a TLG, Shenmue 3, Half Life 3 combo would go places.
Microsoft bought exclusivity, and I seem to remember that many Sega people migrated to Microsoft Xbox division so there was some kind of natural relationship that perhaps eased the deal.
