Full reveal on Monday.

Some gameplay details sound sweet.

Quote

The Shenmue City official site saw a tiny update today, providing us with specifics on some of the things you can do in the new social Shenmue game.

All the content is on the What's Shenmue City page, shown here:

(Image removed from quote.)

The page says you can do the following in Shenmue City:

Search
Help Shenmue main character Ryo by searching Yokosuka. As you clear events, you'll work through a story featuring over 200 characters.
Collection
The "Gachacon" prize machines from Shenmue are in here. You'll find over 100 items.
Game
Support Ryo by strengthening your dojo. You can have your dojo challenge dojos from other players.

It's still not clear what exactly you'll be dong in Shenmue City in terms of exploration and the "dojo" area. We'll have to wait for further details.

I'd really like to play this game. Seems reminiscent of Shenmue 1.

Everyone knows you jumped on the Shenmue bandwagon late. No offense but I've read your posts on the game and I just don't think you "get" it

Himu · « **Reply #12 on:** November 14, 2010, 03:31:39 PM »

So the only way to be a "true" fan of something is if you played it when it came out?

Phoenix Dark · « **Reply #13 on:** November 14, 2010, 03:41:24 PM »

true fans don't jump on bandwagons

Himu · « **Reply #14 on:** November 14, 2010, 03:46:05 PM »

What bandwagon? Shenmue doesn't have a bandwagon. If anything, Shenmue has a hate bandwagon more than it has a love bandwagon. Go read your incest books, Maurice.

looking around it and appears there are no good dreamcast emulators. this plus the total lack of a decent saturn emu 10 years after it died just furthers sega fans' well-deserved status as the absolute lowest of the dregs of gaming fandom

Sounds like good news to me. Whoever expects a revival of a high budget revival of a franchise that costs 70+ million right out the gate is stupid. Get out of this thread.

Basically, Himu, it doesn't continue the story. It rewinds back to Yokosuka, and now the player's character is training in the Hazuki dojo with Ryo, and is "helping" him in his quest. No exploration, all menu driven, no story progression, just a ho-hum shallow little social game with a long-forgotten license stapled on its face.

Too late for that, I think. The only difference is that Sonic fans are at least well-known, Shenmue fans have the added shame of being completely ignored.

Himu · « **Reply #49 on:** November 15, 2010, 10:09:04 AM »

It's not that I thought this would be good but rather, this is better than nothing. A Shenmue 1+2 wii release is possible. That mobage thing is popular as fuck in Japan. I'd like to play it, at least. But I'm more curious about the aftermath. If this is a success: what next?

What are people's expectations from a cell phone/online facebook, period?

I repeat: anyone who truly expects a revival of a 70 dollar million franchise is a fool and I still don't see how Shenmue fans think nothing is better than this. At least with this there is a chance. A chance comes from nothing.

Gamers are babbies.
