    Anyone else ever play Shenmue?

    I'm just curious. A coworker of mine brought it up a few minutes ago.

    I used to be frickin' obsessed with that game. And the second one. What sucks is there was supposed to be one more game that finished out the series, but it was cancelled.

    Actually, I just googled Shenmue 3 and it seems to have turned up quite a few results.

    Looks like there's rumors of a PS3 release, perhaps. I can't visit gaming websites at work so i'm not sure what it says.

    Btw, was there ever any actual reason to master his moves? I'm pretty sure I only mastered his jab or something because it took FOREVER.

    i did play both of the shenmue, i read taht the 3rd project was cancelled and not looking like it will ever happen, but that i read last year.

    i download the demo of space marine but too busy to try it out yet, maybe today or tomorrow.

    i think shenmue, mostly shenmue 2 was one of the best games, because you get to learn martial arts and have your own style really. and you can race with forklift and fight gangsters.

    i think you just learn the different moves to look bad ass when you fight the gangsters. i seem to remember at first i didnt understand it but then there was a trick to getting the training times or something to learn moves faster, but it has been so long.

    forklift racing was fun

    and the arcade play space harrier old old game.

    the second one was pretty much the same just with more up to date graphics and more involvement.

    i only have xbox360 now.
