That's a very good news

corey marshall is a great guy & he was great in S1 but now i really hope they will add a japanese voice/english subs option to S3.

its hard to explain but when i played shenmue2 on the Dreamcast with japanese voices, it just added another dimension to the shenmue world and it also made the game seem more adult.

all you have to do is compare the 2

Exactly! Totally changed the atmosphere of the game for me and glad i got to experience the original dreamcast version in all it's Japanese glory! The english VO was and always will be seen as a joke,only the most fervent of blind fanboys would say otherwise and i ain't one of them...

I would give credit to Lisle Wilkerson though i thought Joy and Xiuying Hong were portrayed well,in fact Xiuying Hong is probably the best character English VO wise of them all.
