Shenmue is very different from the average RPG or action game. It almost seems as if you're playing a movie. The story in the game is very deep. The fights are very fun in the game. It's sort of a dumbed down version of Virtua Fighter. The graphics are phenomonal for the Dreamcast and the music is even better. The only bad thing in this game are the voice acting. It had some of the worst voice actors ever. You'll get a good 20 hours out of this game playing through once and if you choose to play it again, which I advise doing, you'll easily get a good 30-40 hours out of it. Over all, I advise buying this game.
