Shenmue...a game I've been trying to play for about 3 years now, but several broken Dreamcasts/Bad Discs have prevented me from playing it. Tonight though, I was able to finally play it, and I gotta say, it's pretty good. Here are some reasons why it's good:
-It's VERY interactive. You can check just about everything in this game.
-It's comprised of 3 Discs, so I know it's quite lengthy.
-The graphics are just gorgeous.

It also seems to feel like an interactive mystery rather than a Video Game. It's very atmospheric, and with no music while you explore, it feels real. I mean, come on. Do you really hear music while you walk around in real life? Of course, there is the bad:
-Voice Acting could be slightly better. (This does not bother me, but it may bother others).
-Control is somewhat clunky.
-It may feel tedious at times.
So far, I like what I see, but can it hold my attention? We'll find out soon enough. As soon as I play more, I'll write a full review.
Thanks for reading!

"Have you seen any sailors?"
I spent more time playing in the arcade than i did actually playing the game...

I spent days and days of in game time trying to beat Space Harrier.

I think I played more once I found out that the locations are pretty much exactly how those sections of Japan look (or looked, rather).
I hate the controls, too, and not in a "wow-the-controls-suck-but-I-can't-stop" Deadly Premonition kind of way.

Like a real mystery, Ryo has to keep hot on the trail. Otherwise, he resigns from his quest to avenge his father... Too bad you can't use pop cans and capsule toys as currency for that boat ticket.
