Sorry shenmue can't be done on the wii, it's too graphicaly impressive to go on the wii... plus the wii mote would dumb it down so granny weatherwax can play it.

Oh and take a look at the great gameplay of shemue online http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HyaUvDUYRsY .... yep.. they've officially destroyed the shenmue franchiese...

Hey if you don't know about Shenmue it was a very innovative game that put you in the shoes of the protagonist like no other game before or since. I have a feeling this new GTA is going to be taking off a lot of the concepts and feel Shenmue introduced. That would be a good thing.

Can't say I ever cared for the series, and I ponder how the developer ever spent as much as they did on the game b/c the resutl doesn't justify imho.

I would love to see Shenmue 3 fully realize the potential of the Shenmue franchise.

Come on, Sega!

I really did enjoy the series. Tho there are alot of shall we say imperfections, that could have been fixed. The world was huge, but the main character could have had more interaction with it. Even on the personality of the main character, I found some problems with it. Still, I ended up liking Ryo.

Tho one of the things that put me off, was in some cases the quality of the writting. Wich at some points was understandable, since it tried to portray real life situations. But in the end, it did come in the way on some of the quality and repetitiveness of the text for me.

Me and the majority of Shenmue fans across the world stopped hoping like two years ago. We have come to accept that fact that we won't ever get to see the end of the story.

Who the hell is that and why should we care? :question:Meu2k7

You're either very ignorant or you're trolling, or both. Either way, shoo!

Hey I am a huge fan myself. I think if we keep whining about wanting a new sequel we will get one. If we just shut up about it everyone will forget. I can't help but think Yu Suzuki and the people at AM2 who worked on this series for so long would want to finish it. Stay strong!

No, it didn't. I have both versions, and the Xbox version looks slightly better, with improved water effects. The Xbox version has less slowdown too.

No it looked the same but the framerate was more stable on the Xbox.

I forgot all about it coming out on the XBOX. It probably didn't do very well because it didn't include the first game. I think it had some kind of synopsis video. **** I guess I should be badgering Microsoft to help Sega conclude the story. Even though I think it was supposed to be even longer than 3 pieces. SO AMBITIOUS :(

Shenmue I & II were the best games ever made. I really would give about anything for Shenmue III. And it did look better on the Dreamcast in somea reas (namely unimportant NPCs were more detailed) but it also had less slowdown and better water effects on the Xbox.

The Xbox version of Shenmue 2 came with the Shenmue movie which did go over the events of the first game.

Sorry but it was too hardcore for this gen and you expect it to survive this gen? Thanks to the Wii, even Need For Speed is hardcore, and even then, it would be gimped to death to fit the Wii. Oh wait, put it on the 360 and PS3? Sorry but those consoles have failed and hadcore gaming is truely dead

Sorry, but it just isn't going to happen. Sega needs to make another Shenmue like it needs a bullet to the head. Shenmue 1 & 2 were unparalleled financial disasters for Sega and significantly contributed to the death of the Dreamcast.

Want to get your hopes up for a next-gen revival of a classic Sega franchise? Hope for Panzer Dragoon or maybe even Jet Set Radio. But Shenmue? Sorry, not happening.
