I've also not played any game of the series since Black Flag, which turned out to be my favourite AC, but Rogue seemed like too much of a carbon copy of it (minus the cool pirate of the West Indies stuff, which was the best part of Black Flag) and both Unity and Syndicate never appealed to me. Besid...

Personally, I've always been against the practice of reversing the order of East Asian names for Western audiences. I find it condescending and insulting. Not to mention it is plain wrong. The fact is, Shenmue's main character, to give an example, is called Hazuki Ryo, not Ryo Hazuki. How about educ...

True, we've had this sort of thing happening, but isn't this the first time where multiple retailers leak the game at once, not just a single one?
Still, I'm doing my best not to get too excited, but I sure hope to God this is real.

Funnily enough, since the last few days that I've been thinking about the possibility of trying to get into FFXIV and began to read up on some stuff about it. I've been a FF fan for many years now, but I had never had any interest in the game, due to being an MMO, so had never really read much about...

I'll be extremely disappointed if we don't get the option to play the game with Japanese voice acting. With Yu Suzuki mentioning, in all his interviews, that this partnership with Deep Silver has allowed for a much greater financial stability and for a much more ambitious game than originally planne...

Hmm... This might be the one that makes me jump back into the series. Yakuza 2 was definitely my favourite, but it certainly hasn't aged well. And what's this?! Unless I'm being deceived by my Chinese, it says there that we are now also going to "control Majima Goro's story" (that's the li...

Thanks Switch for your quickness. Q: Yesterday a teaser trailer for Shenmue 3 was released... HM: Actually, we jumped the gun on it. [laughs] YS: There's a huge uproar. HM: It was really planned for today [the first day of Gamescom]. YS: Boy oh boy... Glad they don't looked affected by the bad rece...

Thanks again for another translation!

I really hope the mainstream gaming media picks up on this.

Great job, as always, Switch! Thanks a lot! This is a great interview. The fact that the Deep Silver partnership will allow for a more ambitious game is extremely exciting. Personally, I wouldn't mind if they delayed the game yet again, to 2019 (or maybe even 2020), if that meant that Shenmue 3 woul...

Am I the only one that thinks that most of the games today don't look bad ? Like there are a lot of games I just go "this looks fucking beautiful", but I never go "this looks so fucking bad", even when looking at the hilarious andromeda videos, those are just glitchy and wonky, ...

There's some truly beautiful stuff here. I just hope they're not bullshots.

Environments are looking gorgeous. Characters are still looking like shit. Obviously, they still lack proper animations, especially facial animations, but it's not just that. Compared to the lovely level of detail we're seeing on the environments, character models' graphics (namely, their textures) ...

Aww, so the new logo was hand-written by Yu Suzuki himself... Now I feel bad for not liking it and saying that it looks like it was written by a right-handed person's left hand. But it does, I won't lie. Anyway, ever since the beginning that I've been seeing lots of people acting as if the logo is s...

Personally, I like to pretend that Shenmue Online was never a thing. Can't even remember what Ryo looked like there (and thank God for that, as I'm trying to erase that game from my brain). I uploaded an image of the Shenmue Online Ryo if you want to refresh your memory and see how he looks! No, th...
