    I was sold on the Dreamcast because of Shenmue alone back January 2002 when I finally saw the game running in front of me at a store while vacationing with my family. I had never bought a Sega console before that and I remember thinking "ok, so I'll stick with Sega this time around", as the PS2 was brand-new and way more expensive than the Dreamcast, it had fewer games by then, and it would *never* have frikkin' Shenmue! Well, as soon as I got back home and went online on the family's desktop computer (you see kids, this is how things worked back then), I was met with the barrage of news announcing the end of the system and that Sega would pull out from the console race. I was devastated for sure, and the 6th gen was the first one from which I eventually owned all consoles (at least the ones that mattered) but in hindsight, I would not like to have lived a life where that little story didn't happen. Playing Shenmue 1 & 2, Sonic Adventure 2 and Soul Calibur with my brother back in the day are and forever will be some of my most cherished and beloved gaming memories, and I'm glad that nothing except Alzheimer can take that away from me.

    If you play the game on xmas it snows and there's a Santa clause. The only other game I remember doing that was commander blood on pc in 1995. Shenmue is clearly one of the best games of all time. It was years ahead of its time and you felt like a real person in an open world without limitations getting lost in its free feeling world and at the same time having an ultimate goal. 👍

    To say piracy was what brough down the dreamcast is not understanding the different issues it had to face, from competition with ps2 (the cheapest DVD in the market) and difficulties about programming games on it.
    It wasn’t the rain deer

      Badre Bally I have played through Yakuza 1 and 2 and am making my way through 3 right now. Ever time I turn one of these games on it reminds me of what made Shenmue so special. For Yakuza they took Shenmue and took all the cool and special stuff out. What's left is a pretty good Action Adventure, but really nothing special.

    • @moonie9000
      @moonie9000 Před 7 lety +2

      Yakuza and Shenmue only have a few things in common. The setting (Japan, for Shenmue 1), the basic genre (martial arts), minigames, and city exploration. They are not at all similar in terms of atmosphere, level of detail, plot mood, pacing, attention to detail, scope of soundtrack, and the feel of the gameplay itself. Shenmue's combat is more gritty and tactical, it has a spiritual feel to it, it has a slow build up, it has adventure / investigation moments, and it's an absolute labour of love packed with hidden details. Yakuza is great, but it's not Shenmue.

    Nicely Ryo is in Project X Zone 2 as a playable character. When you do part 2 add that. One thing you did miss on this is the Shenmue Windows Theme disc and more importantly the "What's Shenmue" dreamcast demo game which has it's own standalone mini-story. Chapter 2 also was skipped over as that's a comic that appears on the Xbox version of Shenmue 2. Beyond this, I think maybe a complete Shenmue History would do well to talk about how you can carry over items between the first two games and how back in the day there was even a save converter so people in the USA that imported Shenmue 2 from Pal territories could convert their saves to continue the adventure. That was a really cool feature. Beyond this, the fourth disc of Shenmue 1 was worth talking about. Granted this video is old but no doubt next year you'll be wanting to cover the ports of Shenmue 1 & 2 and Shenmue 3 which was just pushed to 2019. Shenmue 3 was my first kickstarter. I'm glad Yu Suzuki is finally getting to finish his masterpiece series.

      Garry Irwin aparently it was only on the xbox version (although I may be wrong) seriously has to be up there with some of the weirder cameos in gaming lol, I believe Jet from Jet Set Radio was also in the game lol

    haha, that reaction tho..
    I don't wanna get too hyped for shenmue 3 because if it somehow doesn't come out I'd be genuinely gutted. I think Sega should do the remasters to just get them out there into people's hands. the fans would appreciate it and I believe they'd gain more fans who are willing to get shenmue 3.

    Great vid on Shenmue! Anyone with the slightest interest in games need to know why Shenmue was (and still is) so great.
    The stuff about Dreamcast is off though - the Xbox wasn't a rival, it came out long after the Dreamcast was killed off by Sega self destructing. Surely part of the reason Shenmue was able to be great was the Dreamcast hardware.

    • @slopesgameroom

    16:19 Ohh SEGA you big tease. This is not teasing players and fans this is true. November 19, 2019 is the release date of Shenmue, two days have past while I am typing this. Some stores and players sell and bought the game early before November 19, like 1 week early before the promised release date. And this is a MASSIVE HIT! Even the new generation of players liked it!

    Shenmue.... damn good open world game..... I STILL have my Dreamcast down in a box in the basement.... I think I gotta replay the 2 games again..... maxing up the moves... getting all the clues, collecting the action figures etc.... making a good amount of money. Damn you Mr Suzuki! I've been waiting for tooooooooo long! Now give me the good game!!! ;)

    Damn it brought tears to see this i was so hyped up when i heard of a 16 chapter game for sega i just couldn't wait to play it and sadly it never came it only got 2 chapters and a online spin off ,I really hope that shenmue 3 can at least end the story

    • @koerel
      @koerel Před 6 lety

      chris Plissken 16 chapters didn't mean 16 games. Shenmue 1 is chapter 1. Chapter 2 was supposed to be the time between Shenmue 1 and 2 and Shenmue 2 consists of chapters 3-6, or something like that.

  • @ValensBellator
    @ValensBellator Před 8 lety

    Haha did anyone catch around 5:08 in the commercial that the Nintendo 64 is listed under "delayed" as the console did indeed face a lot of delays? That was clever lol
    I can't quite make out what it says next to Sony Playstation, but I imagine it was referencing the uncertain launch date of that one as well at the time. I can't recall how many times (this might actually be a decent subject for a video as I don't really recall seeing one on it), but I think I remember at LEAST two delays for the N64, and maybe three or more.
    Love that 1 second jab at Nintendo on the departures screen lol, Sega always had the most amusing commercials.
    Sadly, in retrospect having all those Saturns listed under "departure" from the moment of launch seems like an ominous premonition as opposed to an announcement heh

    • @slopesgameroom
      @slopesgameroom  Před 8 lety +1

    I'm not sure if you were just kidding or not, but an interception in American football is just catching a ball that the other team has thrown.

    This fucking game caused me as much heart ache as I got joy from this game. When I got to the end of the first game and had to literally get a job moving boxes with a forklift to gain enough money to get an airplane ticket so I can go to where the guy who killed my father was and just as I got there the game ended I wanted to smash my console. I couldn't believe it but I heard the sequel was coming my anger subsided... Until Sega announces the Dreamcast will be no more! WTF!! Sure I could of tried to get the Japan version but I was young and knew not how to get it. I was devastated. Then years have passed and I got over it and was enjoying my next console the og Xbox and I seen Shenmue 2 and I couldn't believe my eyes! Then I delved right back into that world loving the shit out of it and just as I forgot the pain the game once caused me and was getting to the end and finally will avenge my father's death.... The fucking game ended again!!! So I wait.... and wait..... and wait for the third game... And here I am about 15 years later a broken man who lacks the ability to love. Lost and unfulfilled in life because of this fucking game.

  • @Roboshi2007
    @Roboshi2007 Před 8 lety +1

    I think your timeline of sega's rivalry is a bit off, as the Dreamcast was long dead before the gamecube was out. Otherwise Sonic Adventure 2 wouldn't have been a launch title for the GC.

      It is possible a lot of people who pirated on the Dreamcast never saw the Reindeer. It was not long before copied games autobooted.
