If this gets a stateside release, it's as good as bought. However, I know that they have enough money to finish Shenmue, I demand that they do

 

[Lazy8s]

With so many enemies and varied battle scenarios, what played like Virtua Fighter in Shenmue's fighting system might be a little closer to SpikeOut/Streets of Rage in Ryu Ga Gotoku.

 

[Idioteque]

They have to release it in the US if they want to make a profit.

 

[PS2 KID]

They should release it stateside because I want to play it and can't understand japanese.

 

[Kiriku]

I don't think making the next part in the Shenmue saga would've been such a good idea...that would only limit possible buyers, since people who never played the previous games wouldn't have a good understanding of what's going on. Of course, they could include both Shenmue 1 and 2 in some way, but that would just feel ridiculous IMO. At least when making a new game like this, everyone has an equal opportunity to understand the story and learn to know the characters and so on.

The hell? I figured Lazy would have come in here to slam the games visuals or something.

That trailer looks really really nice.

 

[Ultra Magnanimous]

Looks amazing. Please buy this people... PS3 sequel. :O

 

[BlackClouds]

Wow, that looks fucking incredible, on the PS2? What the hell! It certainly looks like 22 million bucks. A translation better be a nobrainer for SOA...what the hell else are they gonna publish.

 

[Jacobi]

That'll rock. hurry with the translation Sega !

I played it for about 20 mins at TGS. It looks much worse in person than in screenshots or that movie. I'm sure it'll have some sorta cool stuff, but I'm not getting my hopes up too high...
