crucifix down the lo.

would miss classes and appear near the windows and wave to the teachers.

vote for Dreamcast when we had votings to elect the class representative.

made a fellow classmate name being the new term for gay for years.

would always make works about Satanism for Moral/Religious Class and once played an Urotsukidoji vhs in said class.

some fighting.

sexual explicit or violence ridden texts (but also elegantly written mind you!) featuring the names of my classmates on compositions for Portuguese Class.

porn in the school's library, including a fully realised hand drawn graphic novel (Dark Hunter!).

witty, personal remarks for my teachers in exams papers.

fooling the vigilante about giving me free credits on table soccer.

Hmm, a few :

Turn a guy's wrists during a fight so that he had to go to the hospital immediately and came back bandaged. For weeks someone else took notes for him.

Another guy picked on me until I got tired of it during our basket match. He took the ball, threw it at me. I kicked it back, it hit the backside of his head. Then I punched him in the liver and kidneys. He went down, others pulled me back. Teachers let me go since they had noticed his behavior for weeks...

Other pranks with friends, usually common plan : Gather around two action figures on the floor as if a fight was going on and started edging them on. Soon half the school gathered around. Teacher runs there, leaves ashamed.

Grab teacher's book from the front and throw it around while he runs after it. Eventually it flies out of the window from the second floor.

Convince a weird teacher that we saw something mysterious outside but it ran around the corner. He let two of us go out of class twice and find it.

Art class assignment : teacher asks where it is, go outside, pull out newly planted pinetree outside of the window and claim it was performance art. He just asked to plant it back which we did :P

Got detention with some friends just for being consistently late, make others get beer from a pub next to school, we open the window so they can deliver it.

Smash aspirins and put it in a bag. Pretend to deal drugs during maths. Money changes hands, teacher yells that he finally got us. Eventually embarrassed when he discovers what it is. Or switch places when he has his back towards us. It always made him confused when he tried to address someone.

Remove a tile in church that has a broken corner and sits half loose. Push it so it slides quite a bit over the floor during a silent moment.

Also replaced tape with "hip" jesus rap songs with some black metal tape. Teacher figured out the first fraction of a second that it was the wrong tape though. No one really heard more than a blip :P

Class trip to Germany led to a beer museum during free time. Result : bus filled with drunks, someone vomits over someone's arm and lap, a guy asked others to push round chewing gums in his ass etc. Result : class banned for future class trips due to earlier theater problems.

Common idea : make class mate tie his neighbour's shoe lace to the cords from blinds. Bell rings, guy rushes out and a loud sound is heard when a whole section of the blinds come down. We go out.

PS I never initiated fights and actually had a math/science education which caught teachers off guard. They kind of assumed most of the class would be timid geeks.

This is something I made quickly for sailors? just brainstorming. This is just for fun, you're now an element.

Yes, they're made in 3ds from a user of this forum. I don't have them in other format... Sorry^^

Was a standard staff title. My original title was "Space cowboy".

Has anybody been there? The fair was pretty cool. Tons of mead and beer along with big turkey legs.

If your in the NY area, I suggest you check it out.

They had a guy to throw rotten tomatoes at, lots of archery, knife throwing, and axe throwing. It was just a great time.

Group photo.

I'm holding the mead of course.

^Bet that'll be fun to play in FIFA13.

The PM wasn't posted with any type of malice, the thread was locked and obviously AG never got his say, so he was forced to send it to me via PM. Otherwise it obviously would have been right here. Hell, his reply was to my reply in the topic. Think of it as moving a post in here, it's not as if I publicly went and posted something that was strictly confidential.

I sent the topic to a few members that were seemingly on the fence at times, none that would obviously support one way or the other. I did that to be fair, not conjure up some great support group. I legitimately wanted a few people to read this and see where they stand, seeing as the thread was locked many may have missed out on the further discussion we were having.

Hell, want complete honesty? I sent it to you since you are friends with AG and myself, so obviously I would receive a neutral reply and one of honesty. I sent it to Mue since he criticized me greatly, but seemed to enjoy the new direction and hands on approach and eventually changed his tune. I sent it to Axm since he left and came back due to the changes, so to coincide with AG's statement of older members coming back and liking or not liking the change, I figured that was a good example right there. NO MALICE, NO PUBLIC HUMILIATION. I was the one publicly humiliated by a good amount after taking over, but instead of crying over it you take it and grow from the experience and earn peoples trust. It's actually pretty gratifying.

Hope you now understand, Blue... figured if you knew me, that much would be obvious.

In Shenmue II its pronounced "woodoo", but on the boards i read Wude as "wood"

It looks a little too bright maybe? Like its be stuck on top of the pic.

In Chinese the de sound is pronounced more like "duh". Certainly not doo. I wonder where the VAs got that one from.

You can hear the Chinese pronunciation here:

it's my friend who sent me that exact pic and said we looked alike, I guess there is a kind if resemblance but I'm much more handsome of course

So this topic is about comparing the different regions game covers and which one you prefer and why. ( I know Ico will be brought up here for sure)

The only reason I used all PS3 covers was because I couldn't find any good sized 360 ones.

The Japanese cover wins here to me. It's simple and the A6M2 Zero and its successors are one of the best fighters ever to be made, make that best planes ever to fly. And it shows the power of Japan without having to show other countries planes on fire. And a single plane which doesn't make it too cluttered and some clouds and a horizon to compliment it. I also like the PAL cover more too because of the view point, looking down the barrel of its cannons as its aiming to shot down the Zero. The Japanese obviously didn't want to depict their planes on fire like we did here in America and Europe. Kind of a funny observation but a true one for sure. Here we have the P-38 Lighting on the NTSC and PAL covers which is also one of the best planes ever to fly, but its power is only shown through its gun and the fact that the Japanese planes are on fire and crashing.

Early morning delivaries

I'm reading an annotated version. Which is surely more interesting as lots of details are lost if you have no clue what on earth they were going on about. One of my top 5 books, definitely.

Well... I added something to my Shenmue collection.

http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2056/1491004957_c46e228521_b.jpg

cost me 30 USD.

My collection is (slowly) coming along:
Shenmue NTSC-U
Shenmue II NTSC-U
Shenmue Versus Books
Shenmue VHS

and now the poster :P

I'm not a big collector or anything but it's still fun, plus I really do like the poster.

Biohazard actually used to have an interesting story, yes. Pre-BH4. Too bad it went down with Raccoon City.

Japan looks neat. :o

God I miss Japan!

Sounds legit

does anyone have some renders of ryo's room where you can see it completely?

Absolutely amazing Wude! Thank you so much! :D

How about a Shenmue themed picture contest?
Users take photo's of someTHING in real life that reminds them of Shenmue.
Can be anything they want to capture which they figure could be placed in the games and it would appear natural as if its from the game.
Poll voting is based off different aspects like picture quality and accuracy of Shenmue related object.

:D

I'm going to be another person requesting a PS3 version, since I don't have a 360 either. Really appreciate the work you've done here though. I look forward to QTE Title. How has the game done on 360, so far?

To date, there have been 41 purchases and 558 trial downloads. And I think I've given away about 10 download codes.

I expected less than 20 sales though because of the niche nature of the game and because the Indie section on the Xbox marketplace is small, sort of cluttered, and difficult to find from the dashboard.

Once it reached 20 sales, I considered the game to be a success and worth the inexcusably long development time.

If I can help it, QTE Champ Round II will be released on PSN in addition to the Xbox 360.

All this fuss over Kate Middletons boobs. 1. Not that great and 2 shes royalty now so common sense should tell her this would be ''news''. Asking for it.

Nice sig

Having an uncertain future due to things going wrong for over a year pisses me off.
Like Kenny's post, that kind of "administrative" stuff combined with doubts about future work, studying, conflicting schedules, maybe having to move again,... And all pose dilemma's where every choice is a mix of good and bad. Maybe I'll get a secretary to sort out my life? :P

Fake but awesome

It seems like something corrupt just happened.

Thanks bud. I wanted a new one for a while now. Big thanks to Wude for sorting it out for me, and also giving me a quick tutorial on making gifs. The man is a legend :nice!:

Just in the gym, about to start my third and final set of resistence and decided to log in to see the Ryudo show had another episode. Henry has banned him for a week. Seems like even ignoring him just provoked more attention seeking. Its a shame to be honest, because he will eventually be perma banned and he may not regret that at the time, but when Shenmue HD/Shenmue III is announced, he will miss out on it and only have himself to blame.

I did a quick recreation of ryo's bedroom if anyones interested in Texturing it, it's nearly Identical with the only exception of the bed not being messy, I also left out the books as the size will depend on the textures you're using so it's easier that I leave that to the person applying the textures
