Sweet! I'll be getting this day one! So happy that Sega is actually doing what the community wants. This is awesome.
Yeah i really needed this considering I never had an xbox to play 2 and 1 was what, 15 years ago? can't wait!
Nice one! Hopefully people buy this and Shenmue 3 and we can have a Shenmue 4 financed by SEGA.
Love to play through again without the long loading pauses. Really there should be no loading at all apart from initially loading the game.
I missed those games back in the day so that will be my chance to give them a try before Shenmue 3
Day one for me. I must have beat Shenmue 1 like a dozen times, its an easy game to speed run and it was one of favorites at the time. Recently plaued Shenmue 2 on OG Xbox, still solid games compared to most RPGs.
if shenmue 1 and 2 are being ported to xbox as well, it means shenmue 3 wont be an exclusive then
Sega also ported Bayonetta to PC, but 2 and 3 will never come to PC unless Nintendo allows it. Also, Shenmue 3 is not owned by Sega.
Sega's only role with Shenmue 3 is that they signed off on it. They don't control the publishing for it. That was left up to Yu Suzuki and in the end, Deep Silver has taken on the publisher role.
