Developer: AM2
Publisher: Sega

When the original Shenmue came out, it boasted it could be the only game of it's kind to offer a living breathing world along with having the lead character go as he pleases and do as he pleases. Shenmue had a very ambitious beginning. When it came out the game did offer a living breathing world but the main character, Ryo couldn't really do as he pleased. The story was pretty linear. Then I learned this was a game after all. But in actuality Shenmue offered a very unique gaming experience that no other game before has tried before. And it did it pretty damn well.

Now the sequel to Shenmue is almost readying release in Japan in September, and November in the U.S. Shenmue 2 offers everything it's predecessor did but times 10. The graphics are better textured and the faces of the characters are even more detailed. There's also more interactivity with the characters. Now you can get to choose 4 different things to say and each will probably result in a different answer. Just that adds more depth to Shenmue 2's gaming experience. The surroundings are even bigger with more areas to explore. Four in fact. One being a rundown harbor, another a small Chinese community, and lush forest and a city with huge worn-out buildings. With all of these enhancements, Shenmue 2 should bring the magic once again.
