oh please please please!!

This is like, the 3424599th rumor about Shenmue 3.

evrfighter4571d ago

a new shenmue would be pretty cool regardless of what platform it comes out on. Despite how old it is the franchise has a pretty big fanbase.

SilleGamer4571d ago

@Rikitatu,

Yeah, hopefully this rumor actually carries some merit this time!

disturbing_flame4571d ago (Edited 4571d ago )

And actually if it's the case, a game like Shenmue needs about 3 to 4 years of development with a dev team working everyday on it @ 100%.

I don't think the secret would have been kept during those years. So if the game is planed that means they just start to work on it, so the realease would be set to 2014 or 2015. Looks not credible.

Actually if Sony & Sega wanted to make a good move, this partnership would have been a very smart project. YAKUZA is by far one of the greatest game of the Japan market, and it has been really successful on PS3.

Like you said it's the 156553535th rumor of a new shenmue anyway...

Biggest4571d ago

Unfortunately, the actual fanbase is pretty small for Shenmue. Luckily, it has the "OMG YOU MISSED IT?!" appeal of games like Ico. The projected fanbase of a new Shenmue is much larger than the amount of sales the games had. I was reading that the originals had to have been purchased twice by each and every Dreamcast owner to begin turning a profit. If a new Shenmue is being developed, it's a safe bet that either the production costs will be extremely low, or it will be released on all platforms. I'm excited (and hopeful) for the game either way.

Knowing Sega, it will be on handhelds and not be localized for NA. Valkyria Chronicles anyone?

This would make my Millennium, i would forgive Sega for every crappy game they have released if this happens.

SilleGamer4571d ago (Edited 4571d ago )

A new Shenmue title would be nice.

Sega know that there is a market for Shenmue 3.

Just make the announcement! :)

sinncross4571d ago

Man, if true, they so need a Shenmue HD release for PS3 before this releases.

Long. Live. Play!

WhiteLightning4571d ago

I would like a HD release....never got a chance to play them when they were out. At this point I'd rather wait to see if they do a HD version of them.

Sega Please Release Shenmue3 along with Shenmue1 and Shenmue2 before we Die .............

SilleGamer4571d ago

A HD compilation comprising Shenmue 1 & 2 would be very a welcome and enticing purchase.

Hopefully there is one in the works.

bumnut4571d ago

Why for PS3? Did the original Shenmue games come out on PS?

I played them on Dreamcast and Xbox, but I don't know if they came out on PS.

xX_Altair_Xx4571d ago (Edited 4571d ago )

They didnt; but they failed on Xbox and Shenmue would have to be released on a console that at least has a presence in Japan since that's where most sales would come from. So either multi, or Sony/Nintendo exclusive.

bumnut4571d ago

Thanks for the response, it was a genuine question and I get 8 (and counting!) disagrees!

tarbis4570d ago

You know people here. That's why it's called N4G - not 4 genius.

xX_Altair_Xx4571d ago

It's only been 10 years; take your time guys!!!

Shenmue 1+2 among my best of all time; still got my DC and both games :)

Never say never, I really didn't expect to ever see Space Marine 2 and 12 years later its almost here.
So there is still hope for all these games.

Chocoburger68d ago

I've completed 5 of the games on the list, but the author forgot to include Advent Rising. It was supposed to be a trilogy, but it bombed hard, and the two sequels never got made. It was Mass Effect, a console generation before Mass Effect.

The game is buggy and unpolished, it needed a few more months of development, but the potential was there. At the end of the game, you have all these super abilities, I remember the stomp attack that created a shockwave being especially powerful.

shinoff218368d ago

I personally think days gone will recieve some sort of sequel at some point. I'm personally also hoping it's not the rumored multiplayer online stuff. I'd think most that enjoyed it would rather thisnto.

Knightofelemia68d ago

Sony needs to dust off Sly Cooper and Days Gone so needs a sequel two of my favorite Sony titles. Bulletstorm I love great game wish it also got a sequel. And I wish Namco would finally give Enslaved a sequel another great game.

Dragon's Dogma and XCOM 2 are the best deals. The rest of the games are still overpriced. I would say 8.99 is good for AC: Origins, but you need to put $10 more into MTs to avoid the grind that slows down the story. So, the game is actually 18.99.

It's not on this list, but Pathfinder: Kingmaker is only $9.99. This is a deal if you have a current gen. consoles, as it runs poorly on prev. gen.

hangdang680d ago

I beat AC origins without grinding or spending any money on MTX?

anast680d ago

I had to grind for side missions. So, did many other people.

HeliosHex680d ago

Has anyone been able to login in to the ps store on ps5 I haven't been able to in days and my network is good.

RedDevils680d ago

Reset or shutdown your PS5. I always can go login to PS5, in fact just a moment ago.

HeliosHex679d ago

Hey thanks again. Although the shutdown/reset didn't work i found that resetting the mdm and hub did the trick. I use a Lan network instead of wifi. In case anyone has a similar setup and problem.

RedDevils679d ago

I forgot to mention about the router reset, that usually do the trick when it come to network problems happen with iphone/android. btw np
