I just question how the hell he can see what's in front of him when that arcade screen covers pretty much all his view for the plane and car.

Just finished recording the narration for the last Time Crisis video. Weirdly, I didn't even expect to do it; got out the microphone because I hadn't used it in a while, just wanting to test it in possible preparation for something. Ended up spending an hour and a half recording the whole project.
Still have to actually edit the video (which takes a little while), but it's closer to completion either way. This is gonna be the tumbnail:

I must see this movie when it's released.

Hi i`m new here. I want to share this map I made.

WTF. These pics and links are the same of the GD's extras.

Put them in your computer and see.

All beta pics or beta characters can be found on the artbook.

From the Shenmuue 1080p thread.

Excellent work guys! I'd love to get involved in f=doing this myself. Anyone got any advice for a complete newbie?

OK, done that. What next?
Download Shenmue.
Download Shenmue.

Yep. Done that now. Now what?
Double-click nullDC.
Can anyone else help me? This MiTT3NZ guy is getting on my nerves.

Wait for the police to show up at your door you filthy copyright infringer.

Yeah, I thought Bioshock Infinite was successful as hell?
Anyway, he makes it clear that the decision isn't one made out of sales; he just wants to do smaller games and have more freedom to do so. It's nice that they're trying to support those they're laying off to some extent, but it's kind of shitty either way; if the studio is big enough, why not just work on your little 15-man game and have everyone else working on something else? Seems like a selfish little move for a studio owner to make, in my eyes.
Of course, putting aside the fact that I loved System Shock, Bioshock, and Infinite, most behind-the-scenes stuff I've seen has lead me to believe that Ken Levine is kind of a dick anyway, one of those "way too serious about his 'art'" types, so it shouldn't be a surprise.

Namco trolls Sega with new Pac-Man game projected on Sega's UK HQ in Chiswick.

I drive past it when I visit London, wish I saw this for myself..

Shoulda linked source http://www.dsogaming.com/screenshot-new ... 13-builds/

I'm a little more concerned about gameplay, myself.
And that's not to sound high and mighty in a "gwafix dun't mattah!!1!" way, because obviously they do matter. But in this case, even in its "scaled-back" state, the game still looks nice enough. It still gets the point across, and then some.
Not understanding the fuss, really.

Sometimes it's not a huge deal, though here it seems justified.

It's a game about spotting small details, reading the environment and using that to mess with enemies. Even beyond the fact that it was originally pitched as a very detail oriented game, they hyped people on a certain visual style and then are going a whole other way. Stylistically it looks way different even beyond just the stuff they toned down or removed it doesn't have the same mood as those first few trailers a lot of people feel like its more need for speed-ish and they're right, even beyond car color the rest of the palette is there.

If people were interested because of a somewhat noir feel with the filters and stuff its misleading to totally change the visual feel 2 or 3 months before the game comes out and attempt to just gloss it over. Its like getting all set for burgers and then eating pizza, the pizza might be great, you really wanted the burger.

That guy who goes:
Ive been to tired lately why don't you try asking me again tomorrow.
That guy is a legend!

Silver medal can be obtained by stalking two young girls then beating the fuck out of them in a secret room at the arcade. You need to befriend a foul-mouthed duck by grabbing one of it's feathers and participate in an illegal gambling rink by using your psychic powers to take control of your new friend's body in order to win gold.

Shenmue. Pushing the boundaries of realism in video games.

yes listen to your sensei

Its feisty in here! But for real, I love the dreamcast but that thing was dead in the water by the time Shenmue II was supposed to come out. The Xbox version of Shenmue II had enhanced graphics (most people don't have a VGA cable). Also the small Xbox controller was worlds better than the dreamcast controller. Those dreamcast controller buttons were spaced too far apart and the cord was like 2 feet long. I did want to carry my game over, I remember being really excited for that feature.

If you carry your game over from I to II does it start at a continued date, or is it always that set date?

18 days pass between leaving Yokosuka and arriving in Aberdeen. The default (or "new game") start date is 21st Feb 1987.

I believe the newest PlayStation mag should be out soon?

False alarm. It was Batman.

I've updated ShenShun's original NeoGAF banner and added a few additions, which include image enhancements by Riken Productions. (Ricardo Valverde)

Best we will get is:
Shenmue 3: "I'd love to make it given the chance"
Shenmue HD: "It's up to SEGA to decide, I have no say in the matter."

Best we will get is maybe one or two things he wanted to do in III like has been hinted before with having your choices effect what happens or that a sword fight would take place. Otherwise it will be stories about making the game.

Hope to be proved wrong.

lol @ grand master story

quick screen grab i took of the concept art with map -

I'm honestly shocked at most of the responses here. I found the actual post mortem to be very insightful. It was great getting a peak into the inner workings of my favorite game series.The anecdotes, and early prototype stories - particularly the Peach Tree one, as well as the humorous convenience store one - really breathed some life into the talk, which was colorful and full of fan service. Hopefully Yu and Cerny do a Shenmue II post mortem soon, especially given the fact it's my favorite title.

This was announced as a postmortem and that's what it was. If you go to a taco joint and they're out of tacos, you have the right to get mad. But it'd be pretty silly to complain about them not selling oysters, wouldn't it?

Suzuki shared some pretty interesting facts, such as huge portions of Shenmue being procedurally generated or the early prototype he talked about. Personally I'm very satisfied with how it went, from the stream quality to the translation, to the the content which was what it was supposed to be.

A member from the Assemblergames forums who goes by the name TapamN has found some rare Saturn-era artwork from Shenmue. Check them out below!

The real story behind Ken Kuturagi and the reason PlayStation was a success..

It's been quite a while since the last video but I finally have something new. Look what happens if you lose the fight against the Mad Angels on the first day of work!

Phil Spencer , who has just today been appointed the head of the Xbox division had an interview with Polygon and had this to say about Shenmue:
"As the conversation with the customers today centers around the content that we have, that's the majority of my focus. And we're talking to developers about the next thing they want to be doing on Xbox."

Spencer said the biggest request he hears from Xbox owners is that gamers want Microsoft to bring back Shenmue, Sega and Yu Suzuki's unfinished action adventure epic. "The big Shenmue contingency," he said with a laugh, has definitely managed to garner his attention.
