Title: How much is Shenmue 2 worth to serious gamers?
Post by: ParticleReality on January 18, 2008, 04:12:17 PM
I just found Shenmue 2 at the new gamestop for like $5. It has the Bonus DVD and everything. It's basically Mint, theres no scratches on the disks or anything it even has some of the Security tape on it. So how much could I get for it? Ebay has it in the $15 range but it has to be worth more to serious gamers right?

Nope. Gamestop is pretty good about pricing used games according to market demands.

And, as far as I know, all copies of Shenmue II (Xbox) had the bonus DVD.

If it was the Euro Dreamcast version, you might have something. But the Xbox version is worth nothing. If you asked, they'd probably throw it in for free with a copy of Madden 04.

I paid 40 dollars for the Euro DC version and it was worth every penny

It's in Japanese with English subtitles instead of dubbed into English.

Crisper graphics, there's no goddamn blur during the fights which the xbox version has, no goddamn   bloom lighting at night time which is fucking annoying and done absolutely sloppy on the xbox version, Japanese voice acting which really adds to the game's atmosphere despite the fact it's not in japan;etc.

the only thing xbox version has over the dc version is better load times and better textures on some objects. the visual upgrades overall, are fucking anoyying, especially the blur during fights and the god awful bloom lighting. dc version actually looks better and is a much better experience.

But you're forgetting that this is Shen Mue, so you're basically comparing shit to poo.
