    Shenmue?

    Did anyone ever play Shenmue? man I forgot all about this game, I used to love it because it was kind of different. I played it on Dreamcast around the same time I started playing Skies of Arcadia. They came out with up till the second one, I think it was for Xbox and then I never saw the last one. I guess they didn't finnish it


    anyone play it?

    Alright, who censored my rocketship?

    I'm thinking about creating a hybrid. A dolphin-monkey. Half dolphin, half monkey. Do you think it's possible?
    I was thinking that since I'm artificially creating it, I'll create it with rocket fuel instead of blood, and thus it will be able to fly, using the dolphin's dorsal fins as wings. And from the air, it will look down upon us all and protect us against sharks, and search for bananas.

    I've played both games and admire everything they let you do, even if some tasks can start seeming really repetitive.

    So I had a Dreamcast, but never heard of this game. I just went and watched some gameplay on Youtube v

    I must say, that despite the old graphics that game looks like it would be awesome to play still. Maybe a petition to get it put on the PSN or Live? :-D That probably won't happen, but oh well.

    The second one was both for Xbox and Dreamcast, though I'm not certain if the Dreamcast version was ever localized outside Japan.

    I played the first game like a year ago and although it likely was no where near as impressive as it would have been when it was first released, I did enjoy it. The acting was god awful and it was mostly a game of fetch quests, but at the same time, I grew up on the Lucas Arts and Sierra adventure game, so it felt like home.

    Now that I have a 360, I've been debating getting the second game, assuming it works on the 360, but I'm a little hesitant. There's little hope that the conclusion will ever be released and it would be terrible to get too attached to it just to be unable to finish it.

    Until now!

    I miss it too, and I never got to play it much. Weird how I liked watching my brother play this game. To me, it's one of those games that should be boring to watch other people play, but I guess having a little go when my brother got stuck or lost was fun.

    I suppose I have the Xbox in my room... when I find the cables so I can plug it into my television, I might have a go.

    Before I started playing it, I used to watch my brother play it all the time, It was one of my favorites to watch.
