I wonder if 2 will be based on the Xbox version?? It was exclusively dubbed just for the Xbox. It also had many enhancements over the DC version.

I still have my copy!

This is the definitive version of these all-time classics and will be the best Shenmue experience to date. The re-release will stay true to the originals with modernised features including fully scalable screen resolution, choice of modern or classic control schemes, PC graphics options, an updated user interface and the option to enjoy either the original Japanese or English voiceovers.

Shenmue, 1 especially had a lot of issues that would be even more pronounced in todays market. Hopefully they do a lot more than just a port and add some QoL improvements, otherwise Shenmue 3 sales are going to tank hard.

Sega was dead to me when these came out so I never got to see what the big deal was. I guess now I'll be able to, but I'd rather rent them just in case. Don't want to potentially waste my money.

If Shenmue 2 is a port, id rather have MS handle the X version, from what we (not sure how accurate the video was) saw it didnt look as good as MS BC effort could be. Would expect 4k/60 at least.

Can you believe that those games were locked to Dreamcast and OG Xbox respectively for all this time?

My goodness.

(I do own both games already, but me and the six other people who do obviously are in the minority!)

I tried to play them on an emulator and could not get into it looking forward to playing them on modern systems

Holy moley. They finally did it, huh.

I guess it's time for me to see if these games live up to the hype.

Holy crap.

These are the two first games I can actually remember playing as a kid. I remember sitting on the floor and completing the second game with that ending asking my dad when 3 was coming out.

Shenmue fans have endured so much. It's just so right we're finally getting our due.

YEEEES!!!! I want to say "about time", but I'm just glad they finally announced it after years of years of years of just rumors that it might be happening. My old love is coming back and I couldn't be more happy.

I've only watched my bro play these games once upon a time. Now I will most definitely play these with my boyfriend on the PS4. Can't wait!

Crazy how it took this long for it to finally happen. There were Shenmue HD rumors back in like 2011. Regardless, it's another must-buy title for me this year... can finally finish Shenmue 2 now.
