:lol AmazingBackflip said:He's now telling me that his stuff comes from "TestNet" which, according to him, is a hidden part of PartnerNet. I've never heard of that so I can't say if it's bullshit or not but I still believe that his screenshots were fake.
Cell_Biology said:Aw... this makes me sad.
I was just about to hold out on getting a Dreamcast, now I am probably going to look around for a Dreamcast and a copy of Jet Set Radio and Shenmue.

What screenshot?Backflip said:And besides, that Project Berkley II screen is poorly done.
Himuro said:Because this image is fake doesn't mean JSR isn't coming to xbla/psn.
Tomasooie said:What screenshot?
Anyway, I don't see why people are so quick to doubt this. The leaked Sega notes from last year confirmed that they're bringing over Dreamcast games to PSN and XBLA, obviously the big SEGA games -- two of which we've already seen: Sonic Adventure and Crazy Taxi. Jet Set Radio and Shenmue also fall into that group. And this guy, or someone he knows, clearly has PartnerNet access. Even if the screens are fake, and I don't think they are, you can bank on these games showing up.
If the screenshot is real, it's a placeholder image which will be replaced by something more professional for the final release. It's not unheard of, especially on PartnerNet.Backflip said:This screenshot : http://img25.imageshack.us/i/berkleyii.jpg/ (Ryo's head is messed up)
I think that dude has access to PartnerNet but I also think that he's using what he finds on there to pass fake screen caps as real (like one fake screenshot in between two real ones).
Vorador said:Since there's been leaking of stuff like Sonic Adventure DX, and supposedly Crazy Taxi and/or Jet Set Radio, i suggest to wait a bit until this clears up.

I remember when Perfect Dark XBLA was leaked, its placeholder image was a blurry picture of the old Joanna's head, before they even redid the character model. Goldeneye XBLA's placeholder icon was an image of Joanna Dark from Perfect Dark Zero.
XBLA is not Xbox Originals.Himuro said:Isn't Shenmue 2 already on xbla via xbox originals? What about Shenmue 1? I'm not concerned about xbla because I don't have a 360. I'm concerned about psn.
In Sega's case? Probably not much. :lolHimuro said:What makes you think it'd be vastly different, though?
Himuro said:What makes you think it'd be vastly different, though? You know what would be awesome? Shenmue 1/2 with Japanese voice acting. I wouldn't have to play the DC version of 2 ever again if this happened, but it won't.
I know, I know. lolol weaboo! I'm not usually one to care about Japanese voice acting, but in Shenmue it adds to the atmosphere. A lot. Even in 2 where the game takes place in fucking China.
The ports of Rez and VOOT are aces though.NinjaFusion said:the biggest question i have about all this is not whether the game is coming.... but why anyone would want sega to revisit any of this?
they've more than proven that they have zero respect for their back catalogue.... after sonic adventure why do you think they are suddenly going to put any effort into Shenmue or JSR?
seriously... sega doesn't give a fuck about you, or your nostalgia. they don't even give a fuck about the value or their own IP.
it's time to let go and move on.
The Sonic Adventure thing illustrates how little care Sega can potentially not give to porting a game over, it doesn't have anything to do with how much Sonic games suck. See also: Sonic GBA, Sonic Collection DS, any Genesis game ported by Backbone, etc., etc.icarus-daedelus said:Because it's JSR. Who gave a fuck about Sonic Adventure in the first place? Shit, who gave a fuck about Sonic after Sonic & Knuckles?
People who didn't learn their lesson, that's who.
soultron said:SEGA just needs to do a SEGA classics pack at retail. Bundle up the SEGA GT/JSRF disc, the original JSR, and Shenmue I+II. Maybe some Chu Chu Rocket, etc etc.
I'd pay $50 to have it all on one disc.
Uh...? It wasn't even $50 on Dreamcast.Yenrot said:Some people would probably pay $50 each if they were updated classics. Á la God of War HD.
There's no way the final port would be released running at 480p. It was a work in progress. Are there even ANY sub-HD 3D XBLA games? I'm sure SEGA knows it would be utterly absurd (even for them) to release any Dreamcast ports at anything less than 720p.Princess Skittles said:The Sonic Adventure thing illustrates how little care Sega can potentially not give to porting a game over
Shenmue II is not on Xbox Originals at all. Not in Japan, not anywhere. The game is backwards compatible.Himuro said:Isn't Shenmue 2 already on xbla via xbox originals?
Dead Man Typing said:I love how we've all judged the unreleased Sonic Adventure port. I'm not saying it wont be a terrible port, but there have been unfinished versions of games on Partner Net many times before -- Ikaruga was on there almost a year before it was finally released, and it was a broken, shoddy version that couldn't be finished.
I have hope, that if Sega is working on porting more Dreamcast games to PSN and 360 (as the leaked memo said they would, and their new digital distribution focus would seem to indicate) then they will get the treatment they deserve.

KnuckaWut said:jet set radio future characters too, please. i need Combo!
Sounds like this particular shot is fake, but the possibility of it actually happening seems likely.Oli said:So is it safe to say this was bogus? If so that sucks, because I was actually starting to think Sega might have it together.
Himuro said:I love Shenmue 1's dub because it is absolutely hilarious.
Lijik said:Combo was in the first JSR, in fact chapter 2 is dedicated solely to him and Cube.
