  • beast game 

  • language japanese and subtitel english! its better!!!

  • Last I heard, Sega gave Yu Suzuki the green light for Shenmue III, but it's just a matter of funding.

  • Comment removed

  • one of my top 5 games, best game ever made

  • And to think these qraphics were the most epic shit @ 1999. Now it's 2011, this the qraphics look so crappy. But this is indeed the best qame created.

  • @JayJBeats It actually shocks me how good the graphics are, I don't consider them crappy! And to think this was 1999, hats off 2 sega and dreamcast I must say

  • Ryo wants some of those big bad dudes.

  • Am I the only one that sees a very homosexual undertone this?

  • i would give my right hand for a new Shenmue game.

    This came out in 1999-2000 and still looks more thought through than most games today...11-12 years later

    Sega Please make Shenmue 3 and while your at it... make a Dreamcast 2

  • Asians with thick yank accents ahahaha

  • I bought a Dreamcast in 1999 only for Shenmue. It was so fantastic! From the first reports on magazins i was very fascinated from the idea about this game. Please, bring Shenmue 3, Mr. Suzuki!

  • Look at this game from 1999 and on Deus Ex: HR. Did progress stopped 12 years ago?

  • Loved this game but they say " I See" a lot :)

  • Loved this game but they say " I See" a lot :)

  • Yu Suzuki + Quantic Dream (the guys behind Heavy Rain) = gaming heaven. This collaboration would make for an incredible Shenmue 3, imo. Maybe the greatest game in this generation of consoles.

  • 8 sailors disliked this video!!!!!!

  • Best game ever :)

  • I would litually pay £200+ for a retail copy of shenmue 3 if it was made.

    No wonder they went in debt.... shenmue 1 & 2 where fucking amazing! best games ever and at shenmues time... I was blown away to looking at the cat walk down the street to the advanced weather system

    fucking wow

  • @TheRedCoke Shenmue III Could be released if SEGA went back into the Console making business. I heard that last year on gamefaqs that Sumo Digital could be making a 3rd Shenmue after Ryo made his appearance in Sega All Stars Racing, But Sumo Digital has not Confirmed or Denied this.

  • @kiltsonfire164 Sega still makes games they don't need a console to make a game...On March 2, 2011, Yu Suzuki appeared at the Game Developer's Conference 2011 (marking his first appearance in America). When he was asked about Shenmue 3, he said: "I think SEGA will let me make it…it's a matter of budget…we have to make it in an affordable way.

  • sega really need to stop fucking about rehashing old franchises and put that effort into finishing the shenmue series. it wont be hard now because technology has finally caught up to segas ambition with this game. shenmue was literally 10 years ahead of its time, i mean l.a. noire has only recently matched shenmues interaction with objects, like looking in draws, cupboards etc tbh if they just used the old shenmue engine it would still be better than 99.9% of the crap put out now anyway

  • @D1rtyWhite Yeah, Noire even uses the left trigger to run and has a notebook just like Shenmue does, I know the gameplay mechanics were heavily influenced by this game, so was Heavy Rain.

  • I've waited 10 years now for S3, and then Yu Suzuki leaves the industry for once and all...i cant see this anymore, or else i will cry

  • "Hello there rYO". lol

  • "you don't mean just any sailor, do you?" so sultry! I need to know what Ryo does with the sailors. someone please fill me in!

  • Excuse me , do you know where sailors hang out?

  • @ryohazuki7 I think maybe toilets... or a bush somewhere outside

  • If people were robots because that's how the dialogue sounds in this game.

  • SHENMUE 3 !!! TARGET 500,000 + MEMBERS. ALL FANS NEEDED! = Search FB for it

  • How about a game of lucky sailors?

  • CLASSIC !

  • Omg I miss this game..it bring back so many memories...definitely a classic

  • Ryu "know where the sailors hang out?"

    Asian babe "Well they certainly don't come in here"

    Well duh, you're not what they're looking for honey mmmhmmm

  • Great video game, classic in every way.

  • "Excuse me, do you know where sailors hang out?"

  • wooooooooow it's been 11 years since i played shenmue .. i really missing my dreamcast & it was beatiful days :'(

  • Best game ever.

  • I'm sure the voice acting in the Japanese version is much better.

  • If Sega is ever going to release a new console+Shenmue 3=epic win.

  • "Hiiiiiiii Ryoooooo" ".....Akemi-san......"  Awwwkwaaaaard.

  • Love heart transitions?? FUCK YEAH!

  • are this really graphivs from 1999 ????? Fuckin awesome

  • @FreddyGamesBlog damn right it is... the development since then has been pretty pathetic. and i'm afraid nothing will ever blow me away as first ingame footage of shenmue did...

    back then it was as if these days that samaritan demo would've been ingame graphics of a real game...

  • @FreddyGamesBlog in 1999 Sega already kicked PS2 ass, what a amazing graphics, i still remember when i played this game for the first time, was amazing.

  • @FreddyGamesBlog - What's even amazing was that the game was originally meant to be developed for the Saturn.

  • @FreddyGamesBlog

    yes. from what i've heard it was. the gangs rode motorcycles. no shooting nor drive-bys.

    here the kids able to play outside. and associate with a older adults.

    noways in early 90's gangs infested shootings. allllllllllllllllllll the way up in the year 2000's parents don't trust their kids to go outside due to child snatchers and pedo creepers

  • probably the gayest not-gay question ever asked.

  • They should re-release this game..I need it again!

  • is it just me, or does he sound just completely homosexual?

  • "Sailors? I see them at night. We close at eight but... I often see them from just before that. All of the sailors are big. you know."

    That's what she said

  • Vou jogar hj essa paradinha, deu saudade !

  • I love these types of games but even I couldn;t finish it. It just dragged onnnnnnnn...

  • i remember back in 98, Japan already had the Dreamcast, they had some badass games that are not released in America.

  • God fucking dammit.  I still wish I had my fucking Dreamcast!!

  • About that day.....did you see a black car?

  • @donavonbray KKK Oh man this is awesome One of the better games that i played, I never forget this: About That day.... did you see a black car ?

  • No offense to the developers or translators of this game but looking for sailors in the tone the game is aswell is could be a bit gay.

  • LOOK AT THIS GRAPHICS .....DREAMCAST ITS BEST GUYS REALLY

  • I forgot all about the music it plays when night falls. Probably my favourite game of all time.

  • I wish they could make a full blown remake or sequel. I thought Yakuza 3 would be like this, but it's a totally different game.

  • Shenmue = greatest game ever created. EVER.

  • Such good graphics MAN! I miss the DREAMCAST!

  • "how about a cola?"

    I'll bet he meant: "how about I fist-fuck you up the ass cutie?"

  • I'm a Lumberjack and I'm ok, and hang around in bars...

  • "How about a cola?"

  • Do you know about the Shenmue Word?

    Type in the below on Facebook and you will see our page come up. Shenmue is the word! Shenmue main theme for christmas UK-Number1 2011

  • I LOVE THIS GAME!!!

  • have a seat ? lol

  • Do you know where I can find some sailors?

  • She only sees them sometimes :(

  • The English voice acting is much worse than I remember, I imagine nostalgia clouded my memories of it. God bless them for trying their best, maybe if Shenmue was released today it would have been subtitled, seeing as more people play import games/watch subbed anime.

  • HOW ABOUT A COLA?

  • Are you bad dude enough to locate some sailors?

  • Do you guys remember the day it snowed?

  • ALL THE SAILORS ARE BIG. CAN ANYONE CONFIRM?

  • @ASAManifesto IM A SAILOR AND IM BIG!

  • @fossilfern RYO LIKES A WORD WITH YOU!

  • @ASAManifesto IM NOT CHINESE THOUGH!

  • i miss this game

  • She's not sorry. You can totally tell.

  • I WOULD SAY SAILORS HANG OUT AT BARS, OR SOME PLACES LIKE THAT. THANKS.  THAT'S HELPFUL.

  • hmmm... big sailer's??????????

  • I WANNA PLAY THAT GAME AGAIN :( !!!! it was so epic

  • lolol, poor nozomi.

  • Shenmue, pretty much like Ocarina Of Time, is a game much bigger and better than the sum of its parts. They're magical and carry an unmatched atmosphere thats really hard to put into words. Shenmue is, indeed, a quite flawed game, but you simply won't care at all as its atmosphere and story progression are so weirdly especial that they more than make up for its design flaws. I was a different individual after having experienced this game. Can't say the same to many other ones though. Superb.

  • I also got sucked up but the atmosphere and experience this game offers. But I can understand that gamers who only prefer actiongames can be bored by the amount of walking and the loads of dialogue you have to process. Difficult stuff for narrow minds. :)

  • @Staalstraal Well, you know, the game was advertised as a free roaming action kung-fu game...

    ...But you spend 90% of the game listening to lame voice acting, playing older (and better) SEGA games, and looking for sailors.

    If that's you're idea of fun, then, I hope it was 50 bucks well spent.

  • The idea that I got before playing was the chance to explore one of the best and athentic looking immersive virtual worlds ever created. So I obviously had different expectations than you had.

  • @cadaverr This game looks terrible. You must have the attention span of a small child.

  • @satandog And you must have the intelligence spam of a chimp. As it seems, you have nothing to add me but to subtract. Talking to you is a mental and physical waste of time and effort. Fuck off you cunt.

  • @cadaverr totally agree with you, dude! It sounds funny to say this about a game, but my memories of playing Shenmue when I was about 13 or 14 or so are so precious. Such an absolutely unique experience. The slight weirdness of the semi-successful translations and the often shoddy voice acting just adds to the whole character and atmosphere. I wish this game could have blossomed into the epic series it was supposed to. I was hoping to see Ryo reach Europe or America in his story.

  • @SteakMusic Yes! I've experienced this game through the same age (I was about 16-17 though) as well and its effect on me was incredible. If you were a teenager with a sensitive heart and had the good fortune of having experienced this game at the time of its release, you were certainly in for a treat that you'll never regret being a part of!!! This is a living proof of how videogames can be meaningful for some people (and by that I mean the right games for its destined audiences).

  • @SteakMusic Like I said before, Ocarina Of Time is one of the VERY FEW games I'd put in the same effect zone this one had on me (perhaps not even that flawless gem of a game has touched me in the same way!). Shenmue is, indeed, a marvellous (yet flawed) experience to remember for years to come. You are also absolutely spot-on when you said that the odds of its design flaws actually ADD to its weirdly special atmosphere and experience! It is indeed a special case in gaming.

  • @SteakMusic Just by roaming around Dobuita while the sinister and intriguing mystery of your father's death runs around, listening to no more than a very fitting and moody soundtrack silently running in the background was a treat by itself. I'm yet to come across a game so easily capable of setting its special mood effects like this one (maybe only equaled to the likes of Ocarina Of Time, as I said before).

  • @SteakMusic A very underrated game!!!! If only we could get the third episode done by the start of the next generation... (Yu Suzuki I’m looking at you).

  • @cadaverr Oh definitely, ff the third went into development with the next generation cycle of consoles, I would be so thrilled. Of course, that would be hoping it kept true to its original style. Hmm, I'm trying to think of some other fantastic games that succeed in giving you that special immersed feeling...have you ever played The Longest Journey on PC?

  • @SteakMusic Don't think I've ever played such game before. What is it about? How do you define the similarities between the experience Shenmue brought us and and the one featured in this game? I'm really interested in experiencing anything that remotely resembles the former. Haven't found anything even remotely similar since then. What I do know though is that somehow, both Shenmue and Zelda were almost life-defining experiences to my life. Events which I usually remember of every now and then.

  • @cadaverr They're different in many ways--The Longest Journey is a point and click adventure game with no action sequences or mini games, but it has one of the richest stories, most authentic dialogue, and intriguing characters of any game (in my opinion). It has a rich atmosphere and is not uni-dimensional at all in terms of its emotional range. Most FPS games only trigger rage or fear, but Shenmue and TLJ run the gamut from humor, to mystery, to sentimental moments, and many other feelings

  • @cadaverr It's a game where you enjoy working at the harbor as a forklift driver. What more can you ask for??

  • @kornypony Enough said! : ]

  • @cadaverr on a quest for sailors huh?

  • @cadaverr I agree 100 %. I was think the exact same thing as I was watching this video.

  • @blattdanielmain : ) People who were sensible and lucky enough to have played (excuse me, experienced!) this masterpiece at the time of its release date probably have never forgotten it ever since. Man, I really loved my Dreamcast but, just like everyone else, I was forced to move along and got a PS2 (which was an overall inferior console 'til later in time, imo). Shenmue and Zelda: Ocarina Of Time are probably the greatest 3D experiences in gaming of all time (still enjoyed Heavy Rain though).

  • @cadaverr thinking*

  • Comment removed

  • guys, i played shenmue 2 on xbox, and liked it

    but what u guys think of the original?

    is it just as good if not better?

  • I'm sure Akemi-san knows some BIG Sailors.

  • @FCipher XD

  • DAMN YOU, NOW I WANT TO GO PLAY SHENMUE, BUT MY DREAMCAST CABLES ARE BROKEN D:

  • I see

  • ace game 

  • Perhaps they're out

  • this is a game that released in 1999! How could there possibly be such a good graphics! And gameplay is even better! Shenue 1,2 - the best games on dreamcast

  • @teo1000t dreamcast simply rules! Matches still easily with some xbox 360 games if you ask me! Sure there is more on screen and higher resolution, but add that to the dreamcast hardware and voila. I wish Sega would release a Dreamcast 2.

  • @capcom23 surely they could get this game on xbox live arcade. i played shenmue 2 on xbox but never got the chance to play the first one on dreamcast and truly gutted theres not gonna be a third

  • @Tommy12Gauge try to play it on PC then the first Shenmue. Get the Nulldc emulator from internet including the bios and search for the rom and voila. Downloaded all the sega dreamcast CDI files ;-). I own already most original so then it's ok. But I have to say you need a strong computer.

  • @capcom23 Dude where can I find the Shenmue CDI files??? Thanks....

  • Wow, there are a lot of "see"s :)

  • wow wow wow for those who are alleging that the voice acting is bad you either don't remember when this game came out or just how amazing it was to see the level of detail in the conversations. The voice acting is just dated, it's not bad.

    Great clip though!

  • The worst voice acting

  • Akemi san got DISSED

  • This tells a good story... of a young man, and his quest for sailors.

  • @blfbftg I would've said his quest for seamen. :P not tryin to be a douche.

  • I wish I had his voice.

  • They look so Asian but with the dubbed American voices it hilerious! XD

  • bad voice acting I would say

  • I love that relaxing sound when its turning night...

  • WTF? Akemison: Hi Ryo! Ryo: Akemison!

  • La voz del cantinero se parece a la voz del relator de Ecco defender...

  • "You say sailors, but you don't mean just any sailor, do you?" "Right"

  • "well they sure dont come in here. I'd guess that they probably hang out in bars"

  • This is my favourite game of all time, i fucking loved it. I still have the Dreamcast game in perfect condition with a guide and my Dreamcast.

  • i loved this game.

  • Akemi-San.

    *walks out*

  • SOMEBODY PLEASE ANSWER ME THIS QUESTION... I remember a part of a video game from when I was a few years younger.. I'm now 15 and I remember a game like this on Dreamcast that my brother borrowed.. was there a part in this game where you had to find a black car or something related and/or you could feed a small kitten and go into peoples houses and see roaches in the cabinets etc?... THANKS IN ADVANCE u dont kno how much it would mean.. i swear this is the game.

  • @MBryantFFNY yup this is the game

  • @seangames111 lol i found out after a lil video watching but thanks regardless... id buy a dreamcast jus to buy this game.. its was jus amazin to me idk y tho.

  • @MBryantFFNY Yeah i remember feeding the kitten and stuff, this game was epic.

  • @MBryantFFNY Yup, this is the game. It's legend.

  • Bars...

  • He's trying to locate some sailors. There big and bad and hang out at bars called heart. Smells like queers to me.

  • I've played alot of cool games since the release of Shenmue, but this is still now and always will be my favourite game of all time.

  • HEHE This Guy Has 69 Videos LOL

  • @10Rejean What are you, 11?

  • Epic line by Nozomi: "Sailors? They sure don't -- come in here --"

  • ryo needs to just get it over with and bang akemi-san AMIRITE

  • Dreamcast games on PSN, this should lead to Shenmue 3... Lets make it happen.

  • i loved this game, never beat it tho

  • is sailor code for something else .....like someone who does special favors for money?

  • .wy wnt dey make a new already? ii miss this game soo much?

  • bad acting, bad dialogue, bad acting but i guess its just there culture. boring wooden game.

  • @bboychi1 mind you the game is better when played in the original language. Nice grammar.

  • @FoundationsofPause woohoo the excitment of playing the fork lift game is amazing never before have i experience such a amazing and fun mini game, i bet its even better playing the "fork lift " game in its original language.

  • @bboychi1 Move along Mr I haven't played this game but I know everything about it. Just sit and spin ok?

  • @FoundationsofPause hint the sarcasm. ryo is the dullest guy around.

  • @bboychi1 ahh I get it, yeah he is dull he wouldn't even go out with that chick that was wet for him the entire game. Revenge is a dish best served cold.

  • @FoundationsofPause Nice hypocrisy. You comment on his grammar yet the first letter in your first sentence is not even capitalized.

  • @ZAINSTA1 The hypocrisy. THE HORROR!

  • @ZAINSTA1 omg tfw!!!!! hoo the fcuk cares 10 poitns 4 u mi dear fwriend!!!

  • 00:20 - 00:28 Is like a riddle...

    I remember spending HOURS of my childhood trying to find those god-damn sailors.

  • Sawano-san
