I wish Mark Cerny was on twitter. Anyone know if he has an account?
You disrespectful fuck Yu Suzuki was dropping hot shit while you were just dropping dookie in your diaper.
Gamers these days just minimize the true innovators who built this industry.
I hear the same type of talk about Miyamoto.
Sometimes I agree about Shiggs, nevertheless he will always be the best. Yu is semi retired anyway why say things like that?
Sony really should throw cash at SEGA for a PS4 exclusive Streets of Rage. That would be a megaton far beyond Bayonetta 2.
Now that's a good one EL OH EL
that actually could work.

One can only dream...
But either way, it's cool that Cerny acknowledges Yu with the respect he deserves. Sony is very lucky to have him on-board. Best decision they made in years.

GAF so gullible lol
"Guys, instead of developing a full blown sequel on next gen consoles why not do it on a handheld instead with a small screen?"
Yeah, how about no.

MEGATON ALERT TEH GAF "@megganpez: Mark Cerny & Yu Suzuki talking strategy for Shenmue III. For reals you guys.
Sony just hit my g-spot.
Holyyyyyyyyyy shit, this is crazy. The first urban sandbox, years ahead of GTA III, now coming back?
Mark Cerny is turning into my favorite person ever.

I will not believe until I have the game and am playing it.
It sounds so dirty and pedestrian when you put it that way. You know Shenmue deserves better.
I've just been hurt so much in the past

I don't get it. It's one of the most popular genres today. Shenmue was so ahead of its time. Not only was it a giant sandbox, but you could open every single drawer in Ryo's house and pick up clothing. The game was wayyyyyyyyyyy ahead of its time. Games like Sleeping Dogs are just now catching up.

I was half-kidding, but Shenmue is nothing like GTA or any GTA clone. Shenmue's world is meant to be wandered about slowly, enjoying the sights and the sense of life. GTA et. al. are literally just big sandboxes filled with stuff to do, and the sense of a living space is just shallow window dressing. (And don't get me wrong, I'm a huge GTA fan.) Shenmue is about the world itself.

Is this a real post or are you trolling?
There are people who will say Yazuka is the new Shenmue, but the similarities between the two series are skin deep. You play a Japanese guy who walks around an "open world" and sometimes fights people, but that's where the similarities end.
EDIT: v What he said!
It shares many similarities, but it's a much slower, more personal, less over the top experience. I think there's like two fights in the entire first game and ou spend most of the time drinking sodas out of vending machines and driving a forklift for a living. It's great!
Shenmue has more focus on exploring I'd say.
I remember when Shenmue was announced, my local game stores listed it as "Virtua Fighter RPG".
You're making it sound like a shit game.
There are plenty fights, it's still a martial arts RPG underneath all that sandbox adventure.

He's making it sound different from Yakuza. Which it is. You have a fight every 15-20 steps in Yakuza. You have a real fight much more rarely in Shenmue. You can go hours between fights.

If only I could crucify you for real, like your avatar.
If anything, Sony + SQEX + United Front Games + Yu Suzuki would = one hell of a Shenmue III.
Suzuki is just one guy, so he'll need a team after all.

I'm just not excited for this because I haven't played the previous games. If Sega could offer some way to do that on hardware I own though... nudge nudge... wink wink..
Yup, said the same in the past. Any console, handheld, platform that has shenmue 3 will be mine day one.

Cerny really does deserve all the praise and hype he's getting if he actually is going out of his way to use his position of power to make Shenmue III a reality.
