I envision this Like a game of paperboy from the NES

I like the idea of hiding copies around public places, as odd as it is...

I’m going to buy 5 copies and donate 4 to local children hospitals because I’m a nice guy.

So is that price (29.99) for the 1 and 2?

At this price point it will probably sell quite well. I will surely buy multiple copies of each version. One to play, one to stay (sealed). It might be fun to hunt down the different language covers like with the Xbox Shenmue II.

Yeah, that'll be for both of them.

29.99 for the two seems ok i suppose .

" Shenmue I & II is an open world action adventure"

It says this on the steam page .
I'm wondering how they're gonna do it ,like will it be two separate games or have they combined them in some way.

Might be one download from steam ,they're making it sound like one by saying 'is' instead of 'are'.

So they could be integrated with one UI.

Maybe i'm overthinking this :)

It'll definitely be one download. Most HD collections boot to a menu where you pick which game to play. I don't think Shenmue will be any different. It would be incredible though if they made the transition from I to II seamless! II pretty much starts out exactly where I finishes off so it wouldn't even be that jarring.

Are you going to be doing another Let's Play? I liked the one I saw on S2!

$15 for each game (also in physical edition), is a steal even for the crappiest port.
I was pretty confident they were going with both games at $60. Very good.

I wonder if they'll have two separate games, or the chapters smoothly transitioning together. Like as soon as 1 is done it goes to the boat trip to Hong Kong. It'd be great to have the missing chapter, but we've been begging for Shenmue HD for long enough. We have no right to ask for more than that!

Shenmue 3 might have it though.

so you pity him because him because he doesn't want people begging on the site but kids that play games in hospitals is bad? gaming for me then was a welcome distraction from pain.

Merging the games would not make sense. People who only beat Shenmue 1 may want to play straight Shenmue 2. And devs have more than enough work to do with engine tweaking and releasing the game before Shenmue 3.

Chances are S1 & 2 HD will come out during the second half of 2018. You've got at least three months time to save up 30 bucks.

And if it takes you six months to save up 30 bucks, it's gonna take you six months. 5 bucks a month. Come on.

You've even got enough time to start working a (second) job before the games will come out. I believe in you. You can do it.
