Yeah JSR is one of my favorite series. I still own Jet Set Radio Future for the original Xbox and play it on my 360 every once in a while lol.

When this comes out its a day one download. I have only experienced Shenmue through the Movie Disc included with the Xbox version of Shenmue 2. When I finished watching it made me wanna play the game more lol. I was going to buy a dreamcast just to play Shenmue but this will save me a lot hassle. Oh I have no doubt I will get a DC in the future but with the PAL copy of Shenmue being 1. rare to find or 2. expensive the DLC version is most welcomed. :)

Well, I'd still rather see a Shenmue 3 than Shenmue HD. It's been 10 years over due! But I guess the fact that there will be HD versions of the game gives a glimmer of hope for the future.

To be fair, this would be a means to fund the game and see whether there is a large enough potential who would want to see Shenmue. You have to keep in mind that alot of people haven't played Shenmue (hence why Shenmue 3 might commercially flop).

I have never played these games despite owning them on DC/Xbox. Never played them, even though I am a huge fan of story in video games. Somehow the aspect of realism and doing whatever you want seem daunting and time-wasting.

I would definitely like to play these games in HD especially if the story will be finished with a part 3.

Oh well, still have countless other games to finish first...

I think this is a good way for them to test the water on the popularity of making number 3 and on top of that to get new fans established that would buy number 3.

I still haven't played part 2 so I will buy that for sure.

The freedom in the game is really limited to running around town and playing Sega arcade games. There's nothing time wasting about it per se. It's no GTA or Elder Scrolls.

Misleading topic title.
We know it was rumored already.

This topic makes it sound official.
Lies.

I guess it was only a matter of time before Shenmue came back. Not going to hold my breath for a third installment, but I may take the plunge on the HD version. I just hope it's good HD remake stuff not "let's slap a bunch of filters on the graphics and call it an HD remake" type of thing.

the only reason I don't agree with this, and would rather see the HD than Shenmue 3, is only because I haven't been able to find copies of 1 & 2 to play... they are difficult to track down lol. but I can respect that you want 3, since its been so long since Shenmue 2. it's kind of like as if Valve were to remake HL & HL2 before coming out with 3 after all the hype lol.

You can literally fin Shenmue 2 for less than $10 in Play N Trades and other game stores. The first one is a little harder to find but they're pretty decent on eBay. Once you play it, you will understand why it needs a sequel. I honestly believe that this game deserve a sequel more than any other games out there. It's a beautiful story that left us hanging in the end.

It just make me wonder what is taking them so long to release this, considering its the most requested series to be remade by their fans. Honestly the only reason why they would sit on finished versions of both remakes (which they continue to do so) is planning on what to do with the 3rd instalment.

In my opinion I think Shenmue 3 is a certainty at this point now that we know they have made HD remakes of the first two. The only question is if they choose to make it a full retail release of a XBLA/PSN game in the same vein as I am Alive. Considering the timing of the announcements of the remakes was made couple of months before E3. I don't think they have start development on Shenmue 3 but they are obviously building up brand awareness for the franchise right now.

I just want a release date for the HD remakes, Shenmue 3 can wait for now!
