Then I had a live chat with one of the guys, and it went really well. Oh damn, if it happens then WOW! It's gonna be crazy!

Great news! So you managed to talk yourself to Microsoft after all. When are you finally gonna meet Bill Gates himself? Keep us posted on the $50 mil donation!

Shenmue500K actually retweeted his/her tweet! And the tweet also got 3 likes so at least it's gaining traction. Now we just need to wait and see. I mean, he/she gets someone to donate $50M and I get someone to donate $50M (which is a very real possibility now) and it means they'll have over $100M! I don't know whether they would actually need all that though.

What they are doing is pretty pathetic. Just asking anyone to donate to a random project. And three likes isn't really traction.

Sorry to be a downer. But it's not going to happen. If it does I'll eat a paper plate.

But it isn't a random project. This is Shenmue III, a very special project. As for you Jibby, you're confused. And at least it's better than not trying. On the off chance that it actually happens, then it will make a huge difference and both the gamers and the developers will benefit!

It's a random project TO THEM. They will get fuck all from donating 50mil. No one in their right mind would do it. You have to be a troll.

Well, instead of ending world hunger or building schools for the poorest he will get the official title of Shenmue Legend. And when he does, all Shenmue fanboys around the globe can't help but endorse the new XBone X (even though there will be no Shenmue 3 on it).That alone should be worth more than $50M, right? Gates is all business man. He's got no time for world problems.
