  • they should remake this on modern consoles

  • Imagine a Dreamcast 2 with Shenmue 3 Special Edition design. IMAGINE!!

  • That was a surprisingly non-standard "Noooo!!!" near the end; quite different to the usual Hollywood one we've all heard more times than we wish. Thumbs up!

  • I want his jacket.

  • I miss this game..... :(

  • ryo hasuki

  • I never forgot...

  • shenmue was my childhood. Took me to ale new world every time!!

  • I discovered Shenmue few months ago and it was a total shock ! How can such an "old game" can be so "out of time" and so beautiful. I finished Shenmue I and II in 3 months and it is my best videogames experience !

  • By far one of the best games I ever beat in my life! Too bad I was crushed and heartbroken at the end if you know what I mean? It comes with a passport for a reason. I still have to beat no.2, am debating about getting a japanese dreamcast and hit it all original sega rules forever way, or just pick up a copy on x-box?

  • They must at sega as a duty to fans remake this on ps3 xbox format. It's just that good. And while they're at it get snatchers on the megacd remade too.

  • Yes, I agree with comments. This is hands down the best game ever made. I skipped school to play this game back in the day. I never played the sequels so they may be better. But, this game was just sweet!!!

  • i never been so hyped for a game in my life, i watched the trailer every other day til the game came out

  • Dreamcast days.... Best games ever

  • the most expensive game in history

  • Dude....I remember playing this game so damn long ago on Dreamcast. Still as epic as I remember. I feel so old.....Hahaha.

  • @melxed Same here dude. I had this for Dreamcast, and when part 2 came out, it was the ONLY reason I even bought the original Xbox. I wish they had gotten their heads out of their asses and finished the series.

  • How i miss this :( Zelda Ocarina of Time and Shenmue thebest games made ever!

    I dont have my dreamcast anymore, and i want so bad play this!!

  • @Jhonatan5

    Shenmue and OoT might be my favourite games too.

    One of my teachers told me i loved them out of nostalgia, but i don't agree. Back then, they made games that talked to me... they didn't just make them to be fun, but to be interesting and fascinating too. Now, it seems like games are being made with mathematical equations to find out how they could sell the most (Well, North American games anyway)... and i find it kinda sad...

  • @Agahnim01 You tottaly right, i had more fun with those "old" games, today the companies are so worried about the graphics, we dont have the same fun as before, i remember that, i used to play the same game over weeks, coz it was funny! and i couldnt wait to get home from the school, today, i have alot of new games here, sometimes when i have time, i start to play, and i get bored so fast.

  • @Jhonatan5 i absoloutely agree

  • @Agahnim01 tell me about. lately it seem most games today are all dark.

  • I'm watching every Shenmue video right now and I want to fuckin play that game again, I'm about to buy a dreamcast on ebay just to play Shenmue 1 and 2, it's just too awesome. Can't compare that to any other game thats out right now or in the last years...

  • i have this game but i can play it because i don't have the av cable but so far omg this is epic

  • For those who want to fight for Shenmue 3 Join SHENMUE 3 !!! TARGET 500,000 + MEMBERS. ALL FANS NEEDED! on Facebook and twitter!

  • This game needs to be made in HD.

  • LAN DI....was like FUCK YO DOJO! and all he wanted was the mirror he got from Target. lol

  • Lan di is one bad motherfucker!!

  • I would rather play this than watch movies. Shenmue 2 is by far the best RPG ever made.

  • @shinobiung

    Did you just call Shenmue an RPG?

    triplefacepalm.jpg

  • @strykah92 your about 12 years old yes?, let me help you out a little, little boy, RPG = Role Playing Game, where you "play the role" of a character, normalling involving activities that revolve around said characters everyday life. Shenmue is a game where "Ryo" must travel different areas, acquiring money, food and rest whilst learning new skills and defeating enemies and adopting allies. ergo RPG And you can keep face palming your grubby hands because I know they been down your greasy pants.

  • @shinobiung

    RRRR RWARW RANT INSULT CURSE RAAAAAGE HOW DARE U NOT AGREE WITH MEEE

    /Delusional Dreamcast fanboy mentality.

    With what you just told me, you might aswell be calling San Andreas an RPG. But, if you're as irritable as that, then I won't even bother using my "greasy hands" to get you out of the rocking chair again, Granddad.

    Oh and fun fact, Sonic Adventure is the best RTS ever.

  • @strykah92 Shemue goes a step further than RPG, it was 4D, the fourth element of gaming was 'Time'.

    SEGA created an entirely new genra more complex than RPG, it was...

    FREE...

    Full

    Reative

    Eyes

    Entertainment

    Hence = FREE

  • Otru jueguín sin doblar al Castellano. Otra mierda más. :-(

  • You wanna know how Shenmue finally turns out? - Too bad, cause "No matter how often we ask, they'll never tell..!" :P

  • man..just look at those sweet graphics,, even better than some 360 games!

  • One of the greatest games ever made !

  • Lan Di disliked this 7 times

  • 7 persons get kicked by a chinese in the nuts.

  • Thanks to the dislikes the bar looks like a blunt :D

    but fuck the guys who disliked this anyways.

  • OP GOT SMALL PENIS LULZ

  • SAUDADE!

  • This was probably the best game I've ever played in my whole life...

    I wonder who was the idiot who made SEGA place this project aside....

  • Capsule toys, 100 yen each uh? 

  • dreamcast a very good console and this game fucking amazing!

  • What are these outdated, barely PS2 graphics? :(

  • @4543563 well, this game is actually older than PS2. Still, better than any PS2 game I know. :)

  • @4543563 That would be the dreamcast, sir.

  • @4543563 sigh. you don't know what a good game is. I pity you :(

  • @Ghats212

    Oh. I don't?

    So I play the Metal Gear Solid series? That is a great series.

  • love this game had when i had my dreamcast but then my evil parents got rid of it but i still kept the game i have 1 and 2 so now i play it all the time at a friends house love it so much best game ever

  • Shenmue, the first truly next - gen game.

  • Every time I watch this opening scene I feel like playing the game, but I can never bring myself to become attached to the characters again only to have the story end in a cliffhanger.

    Hopefully some day we can get a conclusion, either in game form or some other way.

  • this proves the dreamcast was way ahead of its time. this game has real time shadows and real time shadow casting, acceptional graphics. and overall it just feels like a movie. Sega had it all right =/

  • I loved this game! But I haven't played it in so long because when I played it when I was little, my parents made me stop because I said something one of the bad guys said. "Kiss off punk." ...I think I can play it now though XD

  • Wow I loved this game. It was so Asian and beautiful.

  • I watched this like 1 milion times when I was a kid. Every time I wanted to play shenmue I had to start it all over again because I didn't have a vmu. That's why i know all the lines by heart lol

  • just make the third one with the same old graphics and everything, i would still buy it for 50 or 60 bucks. people that strongly care about better graphics shouldn't even consider themselves gamers.

  • Wow. I may have been too young to buy this back in 1999 or 2000 (whenever it was released), but I'm definitely getting this game, no matter how much it costs.

  • @Sonical529 it is defenatly worth every penny.

  • gta4

  • Any fans of Shenmue please join us at the Shenmue500k group. Type it into google and join one of our pages, we want answers from Sega!!!

  • Oh my God...this game. THIS GAME.

    Fuck Pokémon. I played this shit when I was a kid. I loved it!

  • click clack click clack click clack click clack

  • Someone needs to continue working on that Android Dreamcast emulator...I must play this on my phone again...I loved this game!

  • They should definetely make part 3 because Ryo has to avenge his father and on his journey hes learning moves and techniques that help make him stronger. I have part 1and 2 in japanese on dreamcast and was extremely angry when a third was never released. I pray it comes out one day-the epicness of this game goes right up there with Mass Effect-its not a game its an experience.

  • @TopTenCrew heh.. that game looked up to this game. except GTA4 was just retarded, u just go around and do like tons and tons of missions... it gets so repetitive and i end up giving it away to my crack head friends. shenmue actually has an interesting storyline and it keeps you playing until the dissapointing ending. GTA4 may have ended but i felt discusted after playing it. idk...that's just my opinion

  • @DaNileChannel

    But Shemue is overrated shit

  • @TopTenCrew now that's bullshit.. how is shenmue overrated? if anything GTA is overrated my friend.

  • @DaNileChannel

    The only good thing about Shenmue is the weather system. The rest of the game was boring. GTA has a great story, good action, missions could be better, great graphics, and is overall a great game.

  • @TopTenCrew wat about the fighting in shenmue? that kicked ass. who needs guns to have fun?lol

  • @DaNileChannel

    The fighting wouldve been great if the controls didnt suck

  • @TopTenCrew

    dude , if shenmue was boring then why the hell did you search for this video? why ?

    wouldn't you better off searching a video for a game that you like?

  • @TopTenCrew

    well....guess you didn't like the awesome QTE sequences, fun minigames(darts, arcades QTE titles), forklifting shifts, beautiful soundtrack, dramatic story, virtua fighter-esque fighting engine,practicing, and discovering things.

  • who ever dislikes this can go fuck themselves!!

  • @miller84157 In the words of Zuko, "Already did."

  • do they have a shenmue 3 comming out.?

  • Dreamcast and shenmue were way ahead of their time...dont think a game rivaled the facial animations until Metal gear solid 2. Wish they'd hurry up and get a company to make the 3rd one...its been like 8/9 years

  • this should be a film

  • Ahhh, this game takes me back to around 8 years ago when i was 6, I didnt quite get the concept and i never paid rent or even got far in the game but nevertheless, an amazing game. I want to get it again because i lost it :(((((((((

  • These graphics wouldn't look *terribly* out of place on a 360 or PS3, just up the engine's output resolution and upscale textures... Do what needs to be done you bastards, I need my shenmue III.

  • where the fuck is the new shenmue i need it now or im going to kill myself like thousands of other people have just for waiting for shenmue 3

  • did anyone started this game and instead of starting on this you end up in the park fighting those two guys that you fought in the short cut scene in front of the tomato store

  • I first played this when I was 10. For me, it's been 12 long years waiting for an end to a legendary game. Can I say, best intro EVER?!

  • i wank to shenmue every day

  • Best game Ever... I want this on PC OMG

  • Shenmue is truly a masterpiece. Beat that game entirely about 4 times, considering bringing out my Dreamcast for one more time just for Shenmue.

  • All Sega needs to do is make another Shenmue. They'd make STUPID money if they quit with these pointless Sonic games, and Marvel movie games. Cut the crap Sega. Real Talk.

  • @Peralisis seriously they should

  • @Peralisis FUCK YOU BRO, Sonic is awesome. Granted some of the games in past 5 years have sucked balls but the Sonic series is fucking amazing and don't you ever forget that.

  • @GokuvsLuffy1 Whoop whoop whoop. Fanboy alert.

  • Comment removed

  • I want Shenmue 3 damnit!!!!!

  • Lan Di would seriously pwn Sephiroth, hands down.

  • @busterwolf97 fuck ya. sephiroth is a pussy.

  • Memories and I still have this game!!!!!!!!!!

  • And so it begins.

  • Just saying, to all those who want Shenmue 3 you should check out (if you haven't yet) Sega's Yakuza series on ps2 and ps3. They basically are a more evolved form of Shenmue and while it's not the same as getting closure to an old series, the gameplay and ideas of Shenmue are much more fully realized in the Yakuza series.

  • @viewtifuljoe99 Trust me. Yakuza is not the same.

  • I CANT BELEIVE LOOK IT AT THIS GRAPHICS.I JUST FINISHED VANQUISH ON 360 ,,DREAMCAST ITS A MASTERPIECE

  • 6 people werent loved as a child

  • I was impressed with the graphics 8 years ago.

    Now days looks like shit :P

  • @brunoiwa fuck yo self

  • @DoubleO88

    Can i know why you said that? :)

  • @brunoiwa cos they still look awesome better than quite alot of games today actually

  • @DoubleO88

    Better than which actual game?

  • @brunoiwa Saints Row, Saints Row 2, inFamous (has more detail than it) Saw the game, Prototype, even fallout, and Shenmue was made in 1999 for crying out loud there's more but i cant think of them now.

  • @DoubleO88

    Prototype looks a lot better dont you think? -.-

    /watch?v=CI25sYr90tM

  • -.-

    CUTE! n.n

  • @DoubleO88

    Fallout 3

    /watch?v=7w3SNMcK76Q&feature=r­elated

  • People can make Shenmue 3 happen , unfortunately there is not nearly a patch on enough people at the moment to get Sega taking us seriously. Lots of people = Profit to businesses like Sega and they have to think financially sadly after bad times not long ago. We need 500k to a few million Shenmue fans/ gamers to really do something, but it's not impossible as some people are saying.

    Go to Facebook and join the Shenmue 500 k group and believe we can make something happen!

  • Awesome! When you play this game looks like you're transported into the game, and

    once you get in you don't want to go out anymore, the enviroment is petty pleasant and you keep delighted the whole game, it sounds like you're into another dimension"very pleasant"! No coments, best game ever!

  • Best game ever. And this graphics in 1999? Amazing.

  • The best game ever! I have this and Shenmue 2! But we all want Shenmue 3!

  • Shenmue has a place in my heart.

  • One of my favorite games ever

  • happy birthday ryo!!!

  • Damn you cliffhangers. At least release a book or something so we know the end of the Shenmue saga!

  • The problem is, the graphics engine and the tools they used to create the game -and all of its minigames- are ridiculously outdated now. Creating Shenmue 3 is likely far more costly than they could ever get returns on. The Yakuza engine is an updated version of the engine, but it doesn't hold up to todays standards by a long shot. So they either use a different engine, or release a gimped game for fans - all of which cost > benefit for Sega. Maybe it's better this way :(

  • I totally agree with you..this was the best game ever..I would spend 500 bucks on a new system to play Shenmue 3 god I miss games like this..I'm gonna buy Yakuza 3 because I heard it was the reincarnation of Shenmue. Can't wait!

  • Lan Di: "Get up. I'll allow you to die, like a warrior".

    HADOUKEN!

    Ryo's father: Hwaaaah.......

  • I will die with no sense of closure or completeness...WHERE'S SHENMUE 3!!!

  • Shenmue & Shenmue 2 = Best Games Everrrr, and that's a fact

    I wish Sega would just open their eyes and give it ONE MORE GO and then that way the story can end and we can all have the ending we've all been so desperately waiting for

  • BEST GAME EVER, there I said it.

  • Anyone who is interested in a SHENMUE 3 please join this fan campaign facebook group i helped make, thanks. SHENMUE 3 !!! TARGET 500,000 + MEMBERS. ALL FANS NEEDED! (copy and paste the group name and it should come up) Everyone welcome to join, arigato.

  • I wheep for Shenmue IIII. :'(

    I wanted that game so fucking bad. I'm actually playing through Shenmue II again right now out of nostalgia. I just finished disc 3, but I'm not sure if I wanna play through disc 4 because the ending was so unsatisfying.

  • so powerful! i'd be willing to pay hundreds of dollars for shenmue 3. but no! oh sure, we can have 87 final fantasy games, but not even 3 shenmue games. wtFe!!!

  • basta ya!!!! llevo esperando un remake del shenmue durante años, o mejor aun, un shenmue 3!!!! me encanta esta saga

  • the only reason why we'll never seen a shenmue 3 is quite simple...the shenmue saga was quite a disaster -even if imho is the best game ever made- and sega has told fans many times that now people wants other kind of games and a shenmue 3 will cost too much money that sega don't have at the moment and don't want to risk anymore investing on a shenmue 3...but i'll hope too for a shenmue 3...

  • I miss my dreamcast and this game....

  • I wish they would remake this for GameCube, Xbox, PS2/3, anything.. this game was so amazing, I remember being is suspense watching these cutscenes, such a good game, one of the best games ever made if not THE best.

  • All I say if SEGA do make a Shenmue 3 they should stick with the PS3 to get the best visuals in HD and to have all of it put onto a dual-layer blu-ray disc.

    PS3 FTW! though I accept if SEGA do multi-platform to not cause no arguments haha :p

  • R.I.P Sega Dreamcast. Should be a re-release of this game. NO updated graphics, everything the same.. this game should just have its own console! lol

    watching this video brings back soo many memories. easily best game Ive ever played.

  • I think Shenmue is the 2nd best game. The best game ever made is Shenmue II.

  • @A1989012 could not agree more some people seem to think the second is not as good as the original but i enjoyed the second game even more. From the moment i heard the music at the intro i knew it was gonna be epic!

  • One of the best intro's to a game ever!!! & Still one the best games ever made!!!

  • these graphics aren't bad for a dream cast game

  • @FlareDemonReborn

    often people says "not bad for a dreamcast" but i don't get why...

    it was just on the same level of a ps2, what's so surpising? just think about "Dead Or Alive 2" on DreamCast, it was even a bit better than on ps2! why is dreamcast SO underrated? :(

  • @AxleGear89 So True. PS2 & Dream Cast are the same level. But, Sony was main stream back then (still is) so people will see their products more. However, with the Dream Cast, only old school (hard core)gamers really knew about it. Dead or Alive2 looks hot on Dream Cast & Shenmue is still breath taking to this day (for a game over 10 yrsold). The Dream Cast had POWER - just look at RE CodeVeronica (before Veronica X came out for PS2). And MARVEL VS CAPCOM has no load times on Dream Cast...

  • get that niggerfaggot out of there

  • Yu Suzuki should have finished this...but he left Sega. Ryo ended up in the Sega All-Stars Racing game, and we are left with no sequel...the only spiritual successor is Yakuza...go figure...

  • ching chong shite

  • I want Shenmue 3 with Ryo Hazuki !

  • Keep friends... those you love,close to you...

  • give us shenmue 3!!!!

  • I will never lose hope that there will be Shenmue 3 !

  • i want shenmue 3 !!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • altho ive played this many times ive noticed ine's arm is dislocated and ryo pops it back into place did anyone else notice that?

  • good call

  • great game!

  • Agreed.Best game ever.:P

  • This stuff always happens on a dark and stormy night dont it

  • @OverclockerJames

    Let's talk about Hollywood scripts too.

  • @OverclockerJames

    nothing bad happens on a sunny day

  • Oooooohh yesssssss!

  • I love this intro.

    I really was impressed when I saw it first time in a game shop ....

    then I bought a Dreamcast....only for Shenmue.

    I have never regretted it.

    Even today I would buy a new system just to play Shenmue 3. This series is more worth than most of the games today!!

  • My feelings exactly

  • damn i want SHENMUE 3 !!

    best game 4ever shenmue 1 & 2!!

  • I remember i wanted to learn martial arts so i could kick ass like Lan Di.

  • Cette intro est absolument danteeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesque !

  • @shion255

    +1

  • voice acting and dialog aint so bad, at least in this opening video...

    Hey mister, you wanna wrestle!?!

    Let's get sweaty.

  • the story strongly implies Iwao is not the first person Lan Di has killed, although that's a tad obvious.
