Although this game is scoffed by many action or FPS gamers, this game deserves to be played by everyone. Even if the "find this and go there at 11:30 to find out where that is" plot of the game turns you off, you should at least play this game to see all the great work put into the city of Yokosuka. And there is more to this game that doing tasks and exploring. The free-battle system is done well. There are dozens of different moves, each made to get you out of any situation. One thing I think could have been done better is the voices. Ryo seems to be emotionless at all times, and some of the other pedestrians remind me of some Monty Python movies, but all in all, if you are trying to ward off 70 gang members (which if you get far enough, you will have to do), you don't really notice or care about the voices. No matter what your favorite game style is, you should definately at least rent this game.. ~Colin Connors

Shenmue is far-most the best game for Dreamcast!

Shenmue rocks! It's the most realistic game for the Dreamcast yet. You can interact with almost every item in the game. The graphics are extraordinary! One of my favorite features is the "real-time." It changes from day to night just like in real life! Also, the weather changes from day to day! Some people may think Shenmue is a bit boring but if you like games where you can do almost anything, you'll love Shenmue!!!

SHENMUE ROCKS!!!!!

First of all, this game is simply amazing! Their is a huge amount of detail everywhere. It is so much playing this because of all the variety of gameplay. You've got arcade games, a point where you drive a motorcycle, QTEs, a Vitua Fighter battle system... The list goes on. The only drawback is all the people you have to talk to. If there was more action, it would've been better. But this is still an awesome game. GO BUY IT NOW!

Better than Pokeman and Digiman together!

I think this is the best RPG game ever. It's just like your in Japan! I beat the game and I have to get number two. I love this game. Shenmue 2 I hope it's better that the first. Warning: I suggest a stradegy guide because you have to do everything it tells you or you will never beat the game.

BEST DREAMCAST GAME EVER!

This game is by far the most interesting and interactive game I have ever played. So many worlds to see and it is as if I am actually there. The graphics are excellent and everything is done and painstaking detail. You can go from looking at a phone book to watching a cockroach crawl across a kitchen counter. I think that anyone and everyone who has a dreamcast should get this one. There's even another chapter on its way to stores.

Only on problem that I have found. Some rumors about the second disc not working properly, sadly is true. I had to send mine back and get it replaced. But don't let it get you down. They replaced it and I was able to fully experience Shenmue.

I Love This Game

This game is amazin' the story's great and the graphics are so realistic. I think this is the best game I've ever played on my Dreamcast. You get so involved in the game you forget you're even playing a game.

Best RPG Of all time.

This is definatly the best game I have ever played.The graphics are so real and the game has a very good story line. When I heard this game was coming out I thought there was no way it could live up to metal gear solid but it leaves that game in the dust. If there's one game on earth to buy it is definatly this one. Take my word for it...

fun and thats all
