Ouch.

Guys don't get emotional... we are all Shenmue fans and should be just happy that Shenmue 3 exists and will come out eventually.

Days before the E3, in this same thread, many of us said we wouldn't be to disappointed/upset if Shenmue 3 doesn't show up. Well, that's it. It simply wasn't the right time and there's nobody to blame for that.

Yes, some of the negative reactions here are bizarre. It made me think that maybe I'd missed something, but no.

I think we're all just a bit stir crazy waiting for the next proper look at the game, and we are due one. We've still got a very limited picture of what Shenmue III is, and I guess some are looking for a little reassurance.

We'll see how this week plays out. I'd be a mistake not to mark the anniversary, even if the update doesn't contain any screens, video, or information about the game.

Personally was really disappointed that there was no reference to Shenmue HD rather than new Shenmue 3 information. However it just comes down to so now lets just do something to keep that in peoples minds as we know we are getting Shenmue 3.

For me there has been way to much announced already for Shenmue 3 and have actively avoided finding out any more about it in terms of characters/story arcs/bosses etc. This series is heavily based on the narrative and I think preconceptions will affect the interpretation of the content when it comes to playing through it, rather then "omg can't believe that happened!" it will be more like "ah so this is where that happens". Of course there will be times where preconceptions were complete wrong and that will be a surprise but i would rather the surprises be more intentional and calculated by Yu Suzuki. This might just be me ranting but i think the less you know the more you will appreciate the game.

Any anniversary Kickstarter update is in the hands of Awesome Japan.

So basically expect nothing. Hahaha.

Well well, the communication about Shenmue 3 has been... "creative" so far.

Even AJ can't bungle an opportunity to at least celebrate the Kickstarter.

Eh... Sega Europe's live stream just ended. Nothing to write home about really.

Firstly, no Shenmue 1 and 2 HD announcement. (Or any new game announcement for that matter)

Secondly, nice trailers for Dawn of War III and Yakuza 0 though.

Finally, Sega Europe is holding a competition to fly a EU Sonic fan (all expenses paid) to the big 25th anniversary party being held in San Diego on the 22nd of July.

So yeah, overall I'd say the live stream was a bit of a fizzer. Nothing you wouldn't have seen elsewhere if you've following E3 this week. Since the 25th anniversary Sonic game is being kept hidden until the party in July.

phpBB [video]


SEGA Central | E3 2016 Live!

Join Dan, Chris & Pete for a very special SEGA Central episode live streamed from E3 2016! During the stream we'll have special guests from Relic Entertainment, Sonic Team and we'll be unveiling news for EU fans of Sonic The Hedgehog! That's not all we'll also be giving you the chance to win a headset from our stream sponsors LucidSound! Ask questions using #AskSega for a chance to have your questioned answered live on the show!

Remember a true fan stays till the end!


Nothing in the description that directly indicates Shenmue 1 and 2 HD but still might be worth a look, since Sega Europe did earlier acknowledge that Sega was looking at how to bring Shenmue to modern consoles. But even if Shenmue isn't mentioned I think that this live stream will be worthwhile anyway; as I'm keen to hear more about both the new Sonic game and Dawn of War III.

Just watched this... Oh Lord... can't believe it's official, like, from Sega... how cheap. And they show Yakuza 0 TWICE! In case somebody missed it. Pisses me off twice as much.

RIP SEGA. I mean the real SEGA.

Yeh, I agree. The stream was pretty pants. They lived streamed 3 trailers that have been on their youtube page for 2-3 days with a video update from earlier today. They also has a "very special announcement" that was an announcement of and announcement lol.

I have been following Sega's "social presence" for a while now and it is a very strange thing indeed, it just doesn't feel official. It feels to me that Dan Sheridan from Sega Europe is the guy who begged Sega to allow him to make this kind of content and eventually they said yes. He makes some cool stuff and you can tell he is trying his hardest, but it's almost like Sega is either very restrictive towards what he is allowed to cover, or they simply don't care/don't give him any content to work with.

I really hope they take what he has started and Globalise the social stream and content, so that it is not just 1 or 2 guys from Sega Europe. Dan has started what could be a great relationship with the fans, but it needs a greater focus and push from the whole company.
