This game helped me through some rough times growing up. Hopefully it will live up to its name.

ShenMue 3 coming for PS4 and PC is bigger news, though, I think.

Well, they announced a kickstarter so funding is not secured and it might never appear. Also in terms of sales and amount of people who have been waiting for the game, I think FFVII beats Shenmue :P

Funding goal has been reached in less than 24 hours for ShenMue 3.

And Shenmue 3 beats FFVII anytime because it's a new game, not a remake. It's not about how many it sells. It bring closure. FFVII is great, but just more of the same thing.

"And Shenmue 3 beats FFVII anytime because it's a new game, not a remake". So you think the remake won't have any new content? Seriously? How about we wait until the games come out before declaring which is "better".

Man, so many hours over so many playthroughs of this game when I was a kid.

They really need Uematsu to compose the soundtrack or remaster the original.

In fact I'd be happy enough with the original.
