Mike Hayes: “Never say never” to Shenmue 3


SEGA loves teasing our poor little hearts regarding Shenmue releases. But things are turning positive, Shenmue franchise turned from a dead franchise to one with new releases. It started this year with Ryo appearing in Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing and now the newly announced Shenmue City. But what about Shenmue 3?

“While at present we have no plans for the franchise [on next-gen consoles], the response to CVG’s question has certainly shown the Shenmue legacy ignites a lot of passion among fans. Never say never…” Mike Hayes

I really hope he didn’t mean that he doesn’t have plans for the franchise to return next generation, because that would just piss me off. I think the Shenmue fans have been waiting long enough for their game, now deliver. YS NET is open, get them some good programmers and get this thing cracking.

E3 around the corner, start your Shenmue 3 rumors


If you have been a SEGA fan for a long time, you know that around this time you will hear a ton of outlandish E3 rumors. Seems that time again, spanish site Meristation.com (once again) is saying Shenmue 3 will be at E3. They did this last year! So its no doubt they are doing it again this year, only its a Playstation Move exclusive now. Also it will use Unreal 3 tech.

Just posting this to not get anyone excited. Most of this stuff is posted to get hits. The site has a history of misinformation.
