So, which are the Shenmues of today ?


Mirror's Edge (as written in teh article)


I don't see many creative games that didn't sell... In fact I only see unfairly sold games that refine a certain genre instead of developping it or creating a new one like :

Tales of Vesperia
Valkyrie Chronicles
Virtua Fighter

etc.


Does anyone see the shenmues of this gen ?

I can think of one if you are reffering to excellent original games that didn't sell.

Condemned - people need to play this game to see how far ahead of the curve it was in 2005. There is still nothing like this available on consoles.

Valkyrie Chronicles should also on the list looking at the reception, but i never played it so I can't comment.

If you are going to categorize everything...Shenmue was an adventure game at heart with sadbox elements and a clock. Nothing original there right? :)

 

Am i over-categorizing?

Condemned was an amazing game indeed. I never played its' sequel though.

 

So now we have Mirrors' Edge AND Condemned...

What else ?
