More people talk about Shenmue than people played it.

Shenmue is an insane game that would be way to expensive to make now.. and only people on the internet really want it. Better first bring S1/2 to consoles.

Also MS need like a kickstarter App so we can fund games we want.

Indeed, Shenmue 1/2 HD are a must to open the game to new public. 

I've read Sega had Shenmue and Skies of arcadia already ready to be released in that format, somehow they never did.

Would you have preferred if they delayed the game for a few months to make sure it worked perfectly? 


Unless they beta tested it there would have been no way of knowing this would happen.  Its an honest mistake and im sure itll be where we want it soon enough.  In the mean time the campaigns are excellent

Why? Lots of games come out without being beta tested and they don't have this many problems. 

Yeah the campaigns are great. They alone provide almost 40 hours of content, so I don't all the complaints.

Maybe Soriku knows why, he is a big fan of SoA.

You can test a singleplayer game for bugs any time before release, but when you release a game where 100s of thousands of people are playing against each other it often times causes issues that were previously unseen.  That is why most of the time you see problems on online games, just not to this extent.  

In the end it was a mistake no doubt about it but im not going to crucify them for it either since the game its self is good as well as Halo 5 looking very good.  Best thing i can say is beta test and stress test your servers for now on
