Re: Shenmue 1 & 2 HD out 2018 (PS4/XBONE/PC)
It's not a matter of affording, it's a matter of being able to enjoy the games in a better way. Sega has made a lot of strives recently to bring a lot of things to PC and they've enjoyed great sales because of it, It's pretty much the only IP Sega haven't brought to any other system which says to me that Sega must have some iron clad exclusive agreement with Sony or the engine code is a work of spaghetti that will only work on Sony's libraries/system.

Are those screens from the link meant to be the HD remasters?

Probably old shots? Wasn't there a rumor a few years back that this was being worked in back when JSR got an xbla release?
Glad I edited that before Pilon quoted it.

I didn't see it say HD remaster anywhere. I'm assuming this will be the same game running at higher res only. I'd say those screens are what we get.

Yeah there doesn't seem to be any remastering of the assets, which judging from the screens hasn't aged well.Deef wrote:I didn't see it say HD remaster anywhere. I'm assuming this will be the same game running at higher res only. I'd say those screens are what we get.

Don’t expect there to be any. Pretty confident that it’s just a resolution upgrade, English and Japanese audio and newer controller scheme plus the default one.

Re: Shenmue 1 & 2 HD out 2018 (PS4/XBONE/PC)
For those who backed 3... ensure that you do the email survey.. it ensures you get the physical copy you wanted... it is a terribly organised survey.. more like a shopping cart.. but push through till it gives you the choice of format.
Re: Shenmue 1 & 2 HD out 2018 (PS4/XBONE/PC)
Yeah, it was a wildly confusing survey. I ended up just getting a ps4 digital copy, the thought of the delivery going ass up after all this wait I couldn't handle. I did think I was meant to have the option of both digital and physical but who knows, I couldn't follow. I did the $110 (Think it was that) backer so maybe I screwed up options?

Re: Shenmue 1 & 2 HD out 2018 (PS4/XBONE/PC)
I did the $60 which was for a physical copy, and that's what I've chosen. I don't really care if I can't play a game on launch day. I've waited 15 years... what's another month if they fuck up the mailing.
But for $110 I'd sure be expecting a digital copy too.

A delay in shipping would be very Shenmue/Dreamcast like. It's in the warehouse!
Re: Shenmue 1 & 2 HD out 2018 (PS4/XBONE/PC)
I was more worried that it got lost and never arrived.

Re: Shenmue 1 & 2 HD out 2018 (PS4/XBONE/PC)
Check whatever email is your kickstarter one, maybe check your spam too as I only got my third reminder the rest spam. Don't ask my why the last one was OK'd..

Paid $110, which includes getting your name in the credits which the survey asked. But I chose steam digital download. I am going to buy it physical later.

Re: Shenmue 1 & 2 HD out 2018 (PS4/XBONE/PC)
Sweet, upgraded to PS4 physical copy. Pretty sure originally you got both if you backed the physical version on Kickstarter. Regardless, I wanted to back the physical version originally but back in 2015 I had just moved to GC and between jobs so could only back the digital version. Glad they gave us the option. Hopefully this extra money goes towards the next tier.

No one would've thought that 18 years ago we'd be looking forward to Shenmue 1&2 being re-released and if you were told that you would be asking where 3 is lol.

Wonder why no passport..
Re: Shenmue 1 & 2 HD out 2018 (PS4/XBONE/PC)
I dunno if I can get excited about this.
The games have aged extremely poorly and was pretty much a production of their time. Just looking at it today, I can't see it anything else but a clunky mess and really at point I'd prefer to play the Yakuza series which is far more streamlined.
Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the heck out of them back then during the DC days, but yeah, they haven't aged well.
