Didn't the first shenmu cost 30 million USD to make?

roughly around there if not more, but if you still have a dc you best play it. Greatest RPG during that period.

Shenmu is one of the best games that i have ever played on Dreamcast because it has a very great gameplay and its graphics are very well done.

Yes, that's about right. It is a shame that SEGA released Dreamcast right when the transition from PS1 to PS2 was in place. They lost a lot of money, and never finished Shenmue, which was supposed to be a trilogy. Shame. I still find Shenmue one of the best games I ever played.

Shenmu was utterly amazing, but as said above, they released it at the wrong time, everybody knows the hype was on the PS2 at that time, it was "revolutionary" graphics in that era

It is kind of sad cause Shenmue supposed to be a trilogy, and sega had to cancel it due to complete bankrupcy so the game was never really finished. I still agree it was bloody amazing.

Id most definitely be first in line to buy another shenmue game, i wish they atleast now think of probably making one, i mean with current technology it shouldnt be too costly.

Yeah but they think the newer generations never played the old Shenmue and they would need to introduce the prequel, so they will need to remake the whole game for the next gen consoles and that is a massive risk.

Well if they decide to make a new Shenmue game, i will be very happy to be the first one to get it for my Playstation 3 because i am a very big fan of that game and i used to play it on Dreamcast for some very long consecutive hours.

Yea, I remember when I first played Shenmue I was like "THIS IS THE BET GAME THAT EVER CAME OUT ON ANY CONSOLE".
When you look at the graphics and you roll back and notice it is from 2000s and actual story, gameplay, the collectibles from the coin machines... everything was *_*. I'm still interested to see is there any good Dreamcast emulator.
