Here are some screenshots for the upcoming Shenmue City, that we have been posting like crazy rabbits about the past couple of days. As you can see, it isn’t a MMO, but a social game like those you find on facebook that all your friends update about every 2 hours.
Regardless, I like some of the ‘ideas’ behind it, but is sure as hell isn’t Shenmue 3 (Yu Suzuki, you always say it best). The game seems very text heavy, sucks for us on here that don’t know Japanese to save our lives. Hit the jump to see more screens.

Doesn't look that interesting, but i'm still gonna support it if theres a way I can. Hope it'll come in english
Does this game feature any gameplay from the original shenmue? Or is this just a cash in with Shenmue characters?
Eh..
I don't think it's a cash in. I rather think the idea was just to make something interesting but also entertaining from a franchise they might want to use in the future. I mean it has been so many years so they can't imadietly take a great step and spend millions on any shenmue game.
Virtua Fighter Kids capsule toys! I'm gonna catch em all!
I don't care WHAT this game is. It could be a text adventure for all I care I'm going to support the shit out of it and hope for a Shenmue Reboot.
Shenmue Reboot? Isn't that kind of what this is already? @_@ I thought you supported a Shenmue 3 instead?
Support this Shenmue spinoff for a possible.. future release of Shenmue III??? Strange thinking guys.
This looks worse than I imagined.. You can't go experimenting with titles like Shenmue.. Either you develop the real game or you never touch it. NEVER!
This is looking terrible.
…I want to play it really badly.
I'm dieing to play it
