I'm not expecting any game news but the presentation could be interesting. Despite popular belief, Cerny isn't a Sony employee.

Im excited to see this. Even if it isnt an announcement, it is still nice to see Yu talk about Shenmue.

GDC Organizer 1: "We need to book a postmortem for this year's conference. Any retro games hot in the media lately?"

GDC Organizer 2: "Well there's a lot of buzz about Shenmue."

GDC Organizer 1: "Cool, I don't think that's been done before. But Yu Suzuki's Japanese, we'll need a translator."

GDC Organizer 2: "Mark Cerny did it for us last time."

GDC Organizer 1: "More buzz! Give him a call."

Alimn may be still living in San Francisco. He would never miss the opportunity.

They won't announce Shenmue III after 6 months of development. I doubt that in a week and a half Sony have talked to both Sony and Yu and been able to make an agreement to bring Shenmue to Playstation.

Maybe not Shenmue III, but perhaps they might announce the HD remakes/remasters? Either way, I see this as good news. :D

Still doubt that. The Adam Boyes interview made it sound like they haven't even started talking to SEGA or had just started. I doubt that in a week and a half they have come to an agreement, got contracts drawn up, Got Yu back on board since he's been doing his own thing and organized a panel where they could announce it.

I think the most we will get is some stories from back when the game was in development. Probably about how the cat from the game was based on one Yu used to own or something.

That's probably the reality of it. But hopefully it'll get Sega's attention. And if they announce HD remakes it's just short of announcing Shenmue 3.

It's weird...I'm beginning to wonder how I'll feel booting up Shenmue 3 for the first time. I remember when Shenmue 2 came out I was a freshman in college and I blew through it in two or three days. I've always thought since then if Sega ever gave us another sequel I'd take my sweet time.

This better not be Shenmue Gai on smartphones. lol I think is actually happening. It better be Shenmue 3 we waited so long for this game to come out. This is my most wanted thing in life ever.

Even if no announcements are made, I see this as very positive. It keeps Shenmue in the public eye along with the good recent buzz. Hopefully, someone will see all of this and give Shenmue III the green light. While I would love Shenmue 1 and 2 in HD, I really want the ultimate endgame to be Shenmue III.
