Rumor: Shenmue also coming to Xbox LIVE Arcade?

Over the weekend, a leaked image from Xbox LIVE Arcade's ParnterNet revealed that Dreamcast's Jet Set Radio may on the way to Xbox LIVE Arcade. This morning, the same guy who leaked that image, is leaking yet another which says Shenmue is coming, as well.

Man I cant wait to get my hands on all these classic games if they really come ton XBL. I've been dying to play Jet set radio again since i lost all my dreamcast games and only have the console. Shenmue is really great game I've played the 1st one for a while was a kid it was something good.

ProjectVulcan5107d ago

Although unlike most people here, i probably wouldnt buy it on XBL/PSN i would be chuffed to bits because with a bit of luck, it will devalue the originals somewhat so i can finally grab me a pristine dreamcast copy that i so foolishly sold off several eons ago.

Unless i have miscalculated and it will force up the price even more. It shouldnt really.

Abash5107d ago

Bring on the Dreamcast classics, SEGA. I'll buy them all

Just need Sonic Adventure 2 confirmed and I'll be ecstatic!

darthv725107d ago

if true that is.

I can think of a few other DC games that should get either a psn or xbla remake. Alien front online, outtrigger, daytona usa, the list could go on and on.

duplissi5107d ago

shenmue!!!! hell frickin yeah, the first is the only dreamcast game i got to play all the way through (never had one had to borrow a friends) and i never beat the second one so id love to download it and finally beat it!

Solidus187-SCMilk5107d ago

That would be cool if its in hd.

siyrobbo5107d ago

WHERES MY DAMN CHU CHU ROCKET

RBlaze5107d ago

You are insanely right!

I have been waiting for Chu Chu rocket to debut on arcade for (what feels like) a freaking ice age!

You would think that that game would be so easy to release on both PSN and Live! And there would be loadsa people who would pick it up! Chu Chu and Wetrix would surely both be instant hits!

Shenmue on Arcade.. I would so be there... Racing my forklift truck around!

AAACE55107d ago

Trying to force it huh?

I posted in that article about Jet set radio and I told people to chant with me saying we want Shen Mue... and now all of a sudden we have this!

I don't know if i'm good at guessing or if I predict alot of stuff. But over the past few years I have noticed when I make a comment, a few days later a rumor is started or something I said actually happens. Is that crazy or what!

I think part of it is I give people good ideas. Maybe I should try to pass that test so I can post news... Naaahh, its more fun to watch the show!

As the title sais "also coming to XBL" does that mean its cummin the the PSN?

Fishy Fingers5107d ago

I think the also is because of Jet Set Radio.

Although there we're also rumours of Dreamcast games coming to the PSN. Makes sense to go with both.

Me, I've still got my Dreamcast somewhere, so if I wanted to play Shenmue I'd just bust it out. Great game though.

La Chance5107d ago (Edited 5107d ago )

No. It means alongside Sonic and Jet Set Radio.

Now lets hope some "Skies of Arcadia" rumor pops up ^^

ndibu5107d ago

No genius, it's right there in the summary, Jet set radio may be coming to xbox live, and now shenmue may be coming to xbox live as well

Alcon Caper5107d ago

All they need now is Powerstone and Rival Schools!

Bnet3435107d ago

Rival Schools is from Capcom and was on the PS1.

mcgrawgamer5107d ago

and that doesn't mean it CAN'T come to xbl or psn in the future. I mean no one ever thought we'd have marvel vs capcom 2 on psn or xbl and no one believed we'd have a MvC3 announced. to quote Kevin Garnett

"ANYTHING'S POSSIBLEEEEE!!!!!!"

Alcon Caper5107d ago

Rival Schools Project Justice then...sheesh

TreMillz5107d ago

Yes Rival Schools was a PS1 game, so if it did re-release, it would be a PS Classic. Next, Capcom not to hold your breath with Rival Schools because the IP is out of their hands, because if it was their IP, it would have been a classic from the start. But this is good, just hope this gets to PSN too so my bro won't beg me to play my 360. Why the hell can't he just be like me and own both?!

Demons Souls5107d ago

It will sell poorly just like the rest of the Shenmue games anyhow.

-Alpha5107d ago

Demon's Souls sold exceptionally, the sales were not poor whatsoever.

But the dude is wrong anyway, doesn't matter how much it sells it's pretty much a profit if these games started appearing on XBL.

siyrobbo5107d ago

no doubt they would just run off of a dreamcast emulator with only a bit of tweaking to make it run optimally. Thats what they did with the mega drive ports.

ClownBelt5107d ago

This game is only for the dedicated followers and there are few of them.

ps3rulz5107d ago

I love shenmue, hope it comes out on psn too.
If not, iv got both of the games on my dreamcast with a vga box.
Good times.

Elven65107d ago

If on XBLA the cost to entry for millions of people would be low assuming they take advantage, if anything this would only introduce the game to new people with the demo and such.

STICKzophrenic5107d ago

Few? It seems all gamers on the internet want Shenmue. That's a lot of people!

duplissi5107d ago

you have no idea what your missing out on dude.......

corneliuscrust5107d ago

that their own experience makes up the entirety of reality?

Open your eyes, lots of gamers want Shenmue. It has increased GREATLY in popularity since its lackluster release. (as most cult classics tend to do)

Def tossin it back in the ol DC when i get home.

Ranking the Devil May Cry Series

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "Upon finally finishing Devil May Cry 5 recently - after it spent several years on my “I’ll play that soon” list - I considered giving it a fittingly-named Late Look article. However, considering that this was indeed the final piece I was missing in the DMC puzzle, I decided to instead take this opportunity to take a look back at the entirety of this genre-defining series and rank the entries. What also made this a particularly tempting notion was that while most high-profile series have developed fairly evenly over time, with a few bumps on the road, the history of Devil May Cry has, at least in my eyes, been an absolute roller coaster, with everything from total disasters to action game gold."

First to last for me...3,4,5,1,2.

VersusDMC19m ago

Me leaving it out should be telling of my thoughts on it. Better than 2 as a DMC game.

Still a good game though.

Friendlygamer1h ago

3,1,4,5 to me, never played 2. 5 gameplay is amazing but level design was really disappointing to me, just a bunch of plain arenas, the story felt like a worse written rehash of the 3rd and the charater models looked weird ( specially the ladies ). Another problem with 5 was that there was not enough content for 3 charaters so I could never really familiarize with any of them

God DMC2 was an awful game.
And in case this isn't obvious it goes worst to best

Used to love this one, but X-Men Legends 1 and 2 will always be my favorites, especially Rise of Apocalypse. Would pay some good money to play it today with online multiplayer, back then I had no way to get a modem

ZeekQuattro6h ago

I remember buying them dirt cheap on the PS4 and then a few days later I read they were delisted. I was wondering why the bundle was price so low and got my answer when that happened.

Knightofelemia4h ago(Edited 4h ago)

Sad to say this is one game franchise next to the Xmen that needs a sequel. I use to play the hell out of Xmen Legends and Marvel Ultimate Alliance. Was great when my cousin had the OG Xbox play with four other people and then playing online. Great games glad to see it reappear even though I own the discs love the mechanics of this game.

Terry_B3h ago

It got a sequel..but for dumbass #reasons as a switch exclusive.

shinoff21833h ago

It looked so horrible to. They should've kept it similar to the first two.

Asplundh3h ago

Because Nintendo funded it, they did the same for Bayonetta.

Knightofelemia3h ago

I totally forgot about the Switch sequel.

jukins3h ago

Misleading. This page is whats available for people who owned the game prior to delisting.

Abnor_Mal3h ago

The first game was the best imo.
