I literally teared up when they said the word Shenmue, and then more so upon seeing the footage lol. They also revealed Yakuza 0 for PC! And Valkyria Chronicles 4 is getting a PC port, too (though I think we already knew that?) Awesome. ETA: Sega just uploaded the full version of the compilation wit...
I always respond to this question with this: http://zoonbats.com/s3/shenmue_stylized.jpg (c/o Centrale et al) So, personally, my answer is no. Shenmue has always been highly stylized imo, and I believe it's just the difference in fidelity and graphical tech between a 20 yo game and an UE4 game that ...
Got my preorder for PS4 and Xbone in on Amazon as of right now (and I don't even own those systems lol.) I never thought I'd be able to say, "I have preordered Shenmue HD." I hoped. I dreamed. We begged. IT'S FINALLY REAL. Let's all do what we can to support this HARD.
While I rarely ever post anymore... this is the culmination (yet again) of countless years of longing retweeting emailing and very vocally urging SEGA to do this. So I just had to come in to say CONGRATS and ... I'm so happy.
I've been gone for a while, in what I have called both on the Kickstarter and elsewhere a "self-imposed exile," and I plan to return to that after this post. But I had to at least pop in - as I have on the Kickstarter in recent days - to comment about the latest reveals which, to me, are a...
*Wakes up* *Yawns, stretches* Ah, time to go see what I missed on the Shenmue Dojo :D *Reads all the posts herein since he last posted* ... w... wtf? Yeeeaaah, I'll be returning to a temporary self-imposed exile, methinks. I really hate the internet, sometimes. People deal with one another in ways t...
I would suggest that anyone who thinks this is some kind of radical departure from the established style of Shenmue to take a moment to look at the older character models with fresh eyes. This is just a quick sampling of screen grabs from the Shenmue wiki. There has always been a strongly stylized ...
I honestly didn't even notice the E3 news in the update until after the fact lol. Since I had no expectation of it being there anyway (as I keep saying, best to keep expectations low until they have something substantial to show us imo,) ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I guess I'm weird. I never expected a truly worthy S...
This doesn't look "anime" to me, personally. Honestly, it looks like Shenmue, brought into an contemporary engine and art direction. I mean... it's not like Dou Niu, Chai, Ren, or really any major, non simple NPC character in the original Shenmue games, wasn't similarly highly stylized and...
I always expect nothing and then get super excited when I get anything at all when it comes to Shenmue lol. I'd like to say it's a no brainer for something to be shown, but I'm kind of scared nothing will be. So... to protect my hype level, I'll just irrationally say, "nothing at all," so ...
They should do a joke update one of these days where they just follow AJ's Joel around, reality TV style, as he goes about his life. He can appear perfectly normal and then out of nowhere, say, when ordering food or a coffee or what have you, at the end of placing his order and specifying the detail...
