Shenmue - RELEASED TODAY!

[Josh]

So, who got their copy?

I got mine from Amazon.com 😀

 

I think I am going to get it. I need to see what people think. It looks like Dragons Lair updated for the 2k though.

 

[GoldenGuppy]

Something's up w/ my COPY, I use the UTOPIA DISC to load it, because my DC's the JAPANESE version... and it freezes at 97 percent when it's loading, URG!! Anybody have any clues?

 

[FrontlineWarrior]

believe it or not kalisto released "a copy"

 

[beat mania]

I think Tom the hot dog guy rocks. At least he does in the Japanese version.

 

[Josh]

Man, I wouldn't trust copies for my life! 4 GD-ROM discs are basically impossbile to put on a regular CD!

 

[beat mania]

yeah, even if you get disc1 to work, I'd like to see you try disc2.

 

Here's an idea guys, buy the game you cheap bastards!!!

 

[PistachioByAzul]

Go buy the friggin game, it's a video game masterpiece.

BTW, yeah, Shen Mue can be stored on 4 CDs, but the sounds and movies would be downsampled or ripped altogether.

 

[Antisocial Virge]

3 cd's and they didn't rip or downsample anything. Most DC games never use the full GD-ROM

 

[PistachioByAzul]

Oh well, I bought it. Gotta support Sega and Yu Suzuki 🙂

 

[pg22]

Nothing, at all, was downsampled or ripped with the Kalisto release of Shenmue.

🙂

<< 3 cd's and they didn't rip or downsample anything. >>


Yep here's a clip from the Kalisto nfo:


<< Since ECHELON didn't do this one yet, we felt the need to fill the void. This release has absolutely nothing ripped out or downsampled! Never doubt the power of KALISTO >>


I can't wait to get disk 1 and try this out!

 

[PistachioByAzul]

Thought Kalisto stepped out of the Dreamcast scene...

 

[piku]

This Christmas is going to RULE!

 

[pg22]

Kalisto probably wanted to re-affirm themselves as |337 (lol 😉 ) and came outta nowhere with this one....

 

[8008S]

I'm actually gonna buy mine so that yu suzuki can sign it! 😀

 

[FrontlineWarrior]

forget shenmue it's all about THPS2!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[PistachioByAzul]

Yeah, Yu Suzuki in San Jose Saturday...hopefully I'll get a chance to go 🙂

 

[GoldenGuppy]

Something's up w/ my COPY not copy as in BURNT, but MY VERSION of the REAL SHENMUE 🙂.... I use the UTOPIA DISC to load it, because my DC's the JAPANESE version... and it freezes at 97 percent when it's loading, URG!! Anybody have any clues?

 

[pg22]

Well, I can't help you there, but from playing it for about 1.5 hours, all I can say is the control of your character in this game is absolutely atrocious. I'm hoping my d-pad is broken or something...but I can barely stand the way you move him around. What gets me is that I've never seen this mentioned before.....sigh 🙁

 

[beat mania]

Cuz the utopia disc suck. get a mod chip already.
