Shenmue III has not been confirmed and if it has please show me some evidence..
Shenmue in-depth
The recent news of Shenmue Online (www.shenmue-online.com) has sparked within me a more in-depth analysis of Shenmue as part of gaming pehnomena. Misplaced Pages's NPOV policy may aid in this understanding. I plan to completely overhaul this page with information from various websites, most notably http://www.planetxbox.com/shenmuedojo/.
However, my question to others is this: is it worth it to add this information to Misplaced Pages? Information on electronic gaming is so ubuquitous online, so what will one more page on a videogame serve?
I think a single page summarising a popular or important videogame (Shenmue obviousy qualifyng there) deserves a place in the history books just as much as that as a book or music album. --DamienG 23:57, 30 Aug 2004 (UTC)
- The difference between Misplaced Pages and every other site filled with information on gaming is that our information is copyright free, in perpetuity. Also, as popular as gaming is, it's often very difficult to find good, hard information on games, especially if they're "old" (pre-1995), "foreign" (not American), or unpopular. Preserving the information here is a good choice when half the FAQ sites will charge you for their content, and the other half are written by Seanbaby clones. ~ FriedMilk 00:42, 2004 Aug 31 (UTC)
I think that for many of us gamers who have played Shenmue it is more than just a game. It is definitely deserving of more coverage here, especially with the leak of info about Shenmue III from http://games.kikizo.com/news/200508/141_p1.asp. The story comes from a reliable and respected writer from Kikizo.com. You can also view what many Shenmue fans are saying about this at http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~shenmuedojo/forum/viewtopic.php?t=25945&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0.

Personally, the article must be heavily expanded, by example: information about people involved in programming, music, about Project Berkley and other SEGA programmers like Toshihiro Nagoshi. There are some videogame programmers that must appear on Misplaced Pages and they aren't mentioned. - Anonymous guy

Why is Shenmue Online redirected to Shenmue? >x<ino 01:27, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
Change to Plot Summary
I have again edited the summary and this time made far less changes leaving most of the original text intact. However, there were some points that were completely incorrect before and their change was necessary. Other points I elaborated on.
Dreamcast version?
I tried playing this game but my dreamcast kept freezing up. The problem only occured on this game. Does the game not work on some models?

Better
I think this article really needs more work! And needs to be really clearier! Because there needs to be more details for the gameplay, because the gameplay is really big. Notes need to be available, explaining about the game set in 1980 ect
Timex
Anyone actually have support for the idea that Timex helped make the game? I suspect the "Thank You" credit cited in the article is simply for allowing Sega to use the Timex trademark, not for any material assistance. 05:20, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
Yes, I wrote that. And I am 100% sure Timex helped with the game. It didn't actually say "thank you", but I can remember SEGA dedicating a thanks to TIMEX, because they wrote the name down!

- Xino, how about citing your source in-line with the page? Unless this point is verifiable, it's best to leave it simply as "his watch is a Timex". RandyWang 12:01, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
- Furthermore, how would a corporation like Timex "help with the game"? Timex produce watches; this is a computer game. Call me ignorant, but I don't see how what experience Timex could lend Sega to help them develop this game... which is precisely why we need to find a source for this statement. RandyWang 12:07, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
RandyWang, you have pissed me off to many f*king time! Believe me, I have had it.
Have you played this damn game!? You don't even know a damn thing about a damn article, you go around trolling acting as if you all it all.
Unreal Championship 2: Liandri Conflict, you come in, saying I added my own opionion, corrected the prefix and sufix as well as the grammar. But the problem is, changing the information! The wrost of all, saying the website "Unreal Engine: Unreal Engine 2X for the game" is all fake. When you havn't even played the game yet, all can you know all this.
ApeXtreme, lord knows how you found the article involving me. You came, posting about the damn release date and such, not even know any damn thing about the system!
Now you are here. HAVE YOU PLAYED THIS GAME!?
The problem about you is that, you think you know about a certain thing, or you think you have experinece in it! But you havn't! Contribute on what you know! That is what Wiki is about! That is why anyone can edit an article. So people who know about that certain subject can correct us wiki editor!
Xino, how about citing your source in-line with the page? Unless this point is verifiableHOW DA HELL CAN I STATE A SOURCE FOR THAT!? The watch was Timex and Timex is a real company. Why in the hell do SEGA just wanna put someone's name in their game for free!? OWNED!
it's best to leave it simply as "his watch is a Timex"Why do we wanna do that!? What is the point of that? That is what those first class editors do, putting down something that doesn't really matter. For an example. Mortal Kombat Deadly Alliance. In the Trivia Section. I stated that the font used for Tempus SAN. Some idiot kept on reverting, and saying where is the proof. HOW DA F*K CAN I GET DA PROOF? You want me to email Midway? That is exaclty what you are doing! Saying Timex didn't help in the game! If you go to there website, do you think they will have a info on Shenmue? And the edit I did was weak, saying the font used was Tempus SAN, but why do visitors wanna know that, it isn't importance. The same goes for that "his watch is a Timex".
Furthermore, how would a corporation like Timex "help with the game"? Timex produce watches; this is a computer gameThat is why I said, you dont know nothing! You havnt even played the game! Timex f*king helped with the design of Ryo's watch! Also if you have played the game, you will notice that the watch as a built in light, in case Ryo is in the dark.
Please, this is the last time, you are really really really trying my anger. And making me want to flame you hard. I am trying to put my stress and anger away! Because I know some of you wiki's are jerks and such. But it an't worth it to flame them. The people I should be flaming are forums posters and fanboys. Please! Just stay out of my way. Or if you want to say thing regarding me, please know what you are talking about and know about that subject!

- Ok, first of all, SETTLE DOWN. You are arguing a point that is probably the single most insignificant piece of information you could possibly dig up about this game. The fact that Ryo's watch is a Timex, and whether or not Timex "helped with the game," is of zero practical value. Readers of the page learn nothing significant about the game from this nugget of information. Secondly, it's a bit of a stretch to say that Timex helped Sega make Shenmue. The second reference link lists Timex as a tie-in, which means that Timex paid Sega money to put their logo into the game. The first reference link doesn't say anything about Timex. I guess what I am saying is that this is an incredibly stupid detail to argue about. It is certainly NOT worth getting all angry over--there are much more relevant things in the world to apply your anger to. --waka 18:03, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
No! It is best to mind your own business, this is between me and him! I am the guy starting to prove a point here and make something out! So...what is Timex did pay SEGA. The point is I was still right! Second I got the stupid source! And third I was right all along!
The first reference was for Shemue 2 game, and the second was for Shenmue 1. In the ending of Shenmue 1, the crediting, says a special thanks or something to Timex. That is why I added that info, and I know that Timex company was real! So you trying to tell me, because in the second link, Timex wasn't at the credit, which means Timex didn't sponor SEGA. If they didn't how come Timex was in this game!?:/
It is certainly NOT worth getting all angry overThis is between me and him, you won't understand.
And for that other idiot reverted that edit. Don't act like a smart @ss! I know what you are trying to do. All you damn wiki's think you are so smart, you try to outlaw someone with your stupid cheap excuss. How da hell is that unecyclopedia? Like I said, don't act like a smart @ss! The gamer will notice something different about the game. About that, the game as Timex as Ryo's watch. Ofcousre it as to be said. By the way, I still got more Trivia & Notes to put in!
This article even lacks information. If I was contributing to this article, I would have filled it up! No details about the QTE, Arcade, Town, Games ect...:/
