I have three words: Must Find Sailors 0
Shenmue is a very divisive game for many gamers who have played it. On one hand, you have a group of people who declare that the game’s slow, methodical pace makes it a chore to play. On the other hand, you have a group of people who proudly declare it’s methodical pace as the entire reason the game is so engrossing – that it really helps draw the player in with a daunting level of realism. Regardless of what opinion you may have on the game, there’s no denying that Shenmue tried to do a lot of...

Shenmue for the Dreamcast was a revolution in gaming at the time of its release in 2000 .

Best Game Ever Made 0
Shenmue's emotive, epic story laid the foundation of how I feel about games and why I play them. The music and story immerse you so much you really feel you are Ryo Hazuki. The game play doesn't fail to disappoint either, having you play out quick timed events and free battle using a modified virtua fighter engine to kick some serious ass. Shenmue will always be my favorite game....
