There's some talk about it the second one coming out on Xbox live along with some other Dreamcast games.

Project Berkley was apparently the developmental code name for the first one, so it's looking good. I'm definitely getting it. And Jet Set Radio, I really like that game.

I never owned a Dreamcast, so I never played the first game. But I did pick up the Xbox version of Shenmue 2.


It was a surprisingly good game. I remember being impressed by the interactivity with the city. Buying stuff from those toy machines and visiting the arcade never got old.

When I was stationed in Yokosuka, Japan, I lived Shenmue (the playing games in the arcade and buying toys from vending machines part).

I enjoyed the first two games when they came out, but since there will probably never be a conclusion to the story, Im kinda bummed on ever playing them.
