What the F***!?

New rewards tiers... plus the fan-initiated #30onthe3rd campaign, for everyone to raise their existing pledges by $30.

Well, that did the trick... Hum, we seem to be pretty close to hitting another KS goal even as we speak.

No one seems to want to play a game of lucky hit.

Seriously though, they raised 200K out of about 250K raised so far today on the PS4 physical copy.

A Yu Suzuki twitter Q&A is going on right now, if you've got a question you want to ask, use #Youaskyu.

Q: Were there any gameplay elements for Shenmue 1 and 2 that had to be cut due to budget constraints?
 A: Yes. I wanted the ramen noodles to get soggy and yucky, but couldn't. I wanted to get that real.
 
 ...

Suzuki is insane.

I LOVE IT!

Suzuki is the best.

Everyone else are just pretenders.

It just ended, but I should've asked if Mr. Suzuki knows his English himself or if it's always given to him by someone else or translated. I also tried to ask what the point of the Coca-Cola sponsorship was in JP Shenmue Chapter 1, but I came in too late.

Really happy to see such rapid progress made today, there's hope yet!

Is there a round up for the Q and A? I'm sad that I missed it.

*sigh* oh Kotaku. You're really are a joke.

That stupid article criticizing the Placeholder art for the physical PS4 copy?

You can't have the game just in Japanese


Why Not . To me its just needles expense having western voice actors: more so when the western dub of Shenmue 1 and II was along with Grandia and Castlevania SOTN was one  of the worst I've ever heard.


Much better and cheaper to just leave the voice acting and translate the text instead.

One of the best 3D shooting games available
