@deadline-zero0: Considering Sony's outreach to Yu Suzuki over the years, I have to think they were the ones who took initiative with this.

Pretty good, we know it is coming on 6/23, so I found it hard to care too much. It's just a week more.

Yeah, but again, the wording make sit strange. The fact that other platforms aren't ruled out is also strange, since Sony would probably try to lock it down as much has possible, like they always do.

huh?

Possibly. Who knows? For now, I am just glad for the series fans and Suzuki, they finally all get Shenmue 3.

The Persona 5 Blu Ray Disc comes out on 6/23, and it comes with new information for the game.

Can you confirm this with me?

  • In the Kickstarter video, clips of Shenmue 1 and 2 are only watermarked with the Sega name (therefore it is the property of Sega alone, and not Ys Net)
  • Any behind the scenes video or intertitle has no watermark whatsoever
  • The in-game footage of Shenmue 3 running on the Unreal Engine 4 is watermarked with both Sega and Ys Net (therefore it is the property of both Sega and Ys Net)
  • The FAQ states that (the reason for this is that) Sega is lending the Shenmue license to Ys Net.

Furthermore, Sega's trademark expired in the United States. It doesn't necessarily mean it expired in Japan :P

Ah, fair point about international trademarks.

Watching it again now, yeah, I mean, it's hard to get any conclusions about Sega's involvement in this project from the video. I can confirm that the Shenmue 3 'footage' has no Sega watermark- all it says there is 'Original game (c) Sega (c) Ys Net.'

The original games, of course, appear to be the property of Sega alone- actually, that might be the reason for Sega's involvement here. My assumption is that in some form or the other, Shenmue 3 will be 'bundled' with the original games, either the games themselves being HD re-releases, or the 'movie mode' from the originals- you would need to get Sega on board for that.

Apart from that, I guess Sega's involvement is limited to a cut of all that sweet money, without any investment on their part. You must excuse the bitterness.

Yeah at this point I doubt Sega are going to fund the game themselves, though they might look at publishing in certain territories, and yes getting a cut of that money lol.

Is it even possible for Sony to fund a third party game and get Sega to distribute it in Japan or something? That'd be funny.

Sort of. I think the situation sounds a bit analogous to the mess with Demon's Souls (although there, Sony at least held the IP rights).

you are a maniac

I dont really play much or even enjoy COD, so why would i be salty about the loss of timed exclusivity for map packs that i have never even bought? I dont think i have ever even bought a COD map pack. If i wanted to i could still buy them on my ps4 you fucking clown.

as for shenmue, i wont repeat all that i have said in this thread, my replies are genuine and sincere.

Because you hyped them last gen over PS fans..lol

Remember all you care was Halo and multiplatforms that was you...

Your replies are nothing but butthurt because your precious xbox one got the short end of the stick yet again,is something you are not use to,since you were such a big lemm last gen and you still are.

Only idiots really think that sony can outbid MS for COD maps,is Clear Activision didn't want them associated with the losing brand this gen.

@sts106mat said:

yeah, sorry, i tried, i really have.

i read that three times, but it still doesn't make any sense.

The xbox 360 was ahead of the PS3 most of the gen sales wise.

The xbox 360 got more mature games since the go.

The xbox 360 also house a big number of teens.

Fact is what i say make more sense than thinking that sony simply outbid MS for COD map packs,COD is a leading franchise which apparently Activison want associated with the leading console.

@tormentos:

Listen mah man, if/when this game launches in 2019/2020, I'l get me a 2019/2020 mega gaming PC and be playing the best version by far. ;)

Na i am sure you will cry because it is not on your xbox one..

Yeah that is about the same date Quantum Break will drop..lol

@deadline-zero0 said:

Tomato trying to trash the bone using multiplats

salt

Seat and wait for FF7 we get it first.

Last Guardian is not on PC or xbox one.

Neither is Horizon.

The only loser here is MS and gears if a multiplatform game and still lemming count it,just like last year then counted Halo MCC and FH2 which were multiplatforms as well,but you already knew that my fake hermit friend.

@sts106mat said:

yesterday he was bashing remake / collections.

i wonder how he feels about the 360 back compat versus PlayStation now?

Well if you are stupid enough to believe that PSN now is backward compatibility or has to compete with xbox 360 backward compatibility then there is no hope for you.

PSN Now is RENTAL service,is not backward compatibility,it work even on some TV without you having a damn PS3,but you are to dumb to understand that no maybe you are you blind..lol

I bash collections and remake because those could be access by backward compatibility if both sony and MS were up to it,MS step into the plate,kind of make you wonder why in hell a gears collection is need it when you have backward compatibility for it,now FF7 is a damn old game,which even with backward compatibility looked like shit,a remake with todays graphics would be something worth seeing,not just 1080p 60- FPS shit.

I slammed even TLOU for it and even Uncharted.

Not that I care at all about this game, but I think Sony have a nerve asking people to fund Shenmue 3 so they can keep it hostage from Xbox and WiiU. Especially when all you ever hear nostalgic Xbox gamers drone on about is Shenmue III.

@finalfantasy94:

Most of the people who have been huge fans of shenmue are probably adults with some disposable income at this point. Makes sense that the kickstarter would hit goal this quickly.

@bobrossperm

Sony is probably footing a large amount of money for the game. No way that shenmue 3 will only need 2 mil to be developed.

You would be correct my friend. Sony's own Gio Corsi confirmed this on a live stream.

How is it "confirmed" when all we got was a pitch for a kick starter?

This is less substantial than an announcement for a game, even if not ready for release, is in actual production.

@bobrossperm: PS4 and PC gamers are realistically the only people who would fund it.

Question for the ages: Who will pay more to have this game kick started?

Will there be an Xbox/Wii U/Linux/Mac version for Shenmue 3?

Currently we are planning development only for PC (Windows) and PS4. Other platforms have not been decided yet.

cows might wanna lay off the "sony is funding this game" talk . If this was part of a deal with sony to keep it off other platforms this question would have been a clear "yes" or "no"

I don't think anyone said anything relatively close to this. I just see straight insecurity.

Then again, I do know you lems like your games to release as fast as they end up as coasters.

I wonder how long it's going to take to hit that $2 million. I guess I picked a good time to pop in to the stream. Literally just before it was announced. I went to KS right away and it had $20.

I never played the first two. I wonder if they'll consider bringing them all out in a package if they raise enough?

well that escalated quickly

its not tin foil hat territory, its real world. yes its got its funding, but its a hell of a long, expensive road ahead. If they had announced it as a first party exclusive, already in development, i can understand folk who enjoyed the original getting excited. but this? i dont get it.

No, real world is recognizing these are industry vets that know how much money they need to make their own game.

They must be getting some funding from else where as well. No one is making a game like this for $2M. Since it's coming to the Playstation and PC, Sony probably is funding it too. Guess they needed proof of interest or something.

The need it on the PC to expand to as many sales as well without it being on the Xbox One.

I don't get how Sony could fund TLG for 10 years with no return and not Shenmue 3.

Disappointed they are not making a Shenmue HD collection or something. It would be neat to play the first two games, but I'm not willing to buy a Dreamcast just to do it. Dreamcast emulation is still pretty wonky as well.

That'll probably get released closer to when Shenmue 3 goes gold.

Other than nostalgia factor, i don't get the hype for Shenmue 3.

I loved the first games, they were incredibly innovative for their time (graphics, level of interaction with the environments, choices, etc), but standards has changed alot in 15 years.

For current standards, the story seems too simple, quick time events are more hated than loved, that level of interaction with the environments has been done in thousands of games, and basically every game looks good now.

not only that but this game is nowhere near getting released. Id guess its at the very least 3-4 years away. now if they remade the first shenmue with new graphics, new controls, new gameplay systems, that i would be fucking pumped for. idk what a new shenmue game is in 2015 though.
