Yeah, I'm new to this. Only recently bought a DC. Seriously though, what's it like? What type of game is it? RPG?

Well it's considered a FREE in the genre listing, but that's just some PR hype.

It's one of the best games on any console and would most likely be considered an adventure title with rpg/action/figthing/puzzle elements.

They really are, especially for a system that came out on 9.9.99...

I would have to say that Shenmue is the best looking game that I have ever played with respect to the characters and scenery. It is one of the best games that I have played on any system. Some people thought it was borring, but I think it is because it wasn't set in a super fantastic universe but rather than a normal, actually believable setting. It is like real life. It is a great adventure game with some puzzle, fighting, and racing elements with a story about revenge and mystery.

I really hated how people thought it was boring. I kind of got angry about how you could skip to the parts in Shenmue 2. It was supposed to be realistic and time travel isn't very realisitic.

Either way, Shenmue 2 was great, but I still prefer the original for some reason.

Really great game. I was hooked on it for three days straight until I beat it. It had a kind of weak, no wait, NO ending, but it's because it's only Chapter 1 in a series of Shenmue games. I really need Shenmue II.....

Took me two days to beat the game a few minutes over 50 hours to beat it. I pretty much played it all day and didn't leave my room. I also beat it a second time and got half-way through on a third. I was so amazed by the game...

Is Shenmue II pretty good? I saw it at Gamestop awhile back, I've been meaning to get it now that I just got Utopia v1.2.

Most people agree that it's much better then the original, which is true, but I enjoyed the original much more...
