ESPECIALLY AS YOU BOUGHT MERCHANDISE
But when you manage to get both Saturn games and can go back to the house and play them endlessly
I was at this for ages yesterday! Got a boom box, a Metal Sonic figure and a random 5th prize figure. Want the Saturn games + Sega music cassettes so bad D:
Speaking of Space Harrier + Hang-On, I am right in saying there are small figures of the cabinets right? I've won the Darts + QTE Title ones, yet even after beating the high score on Space Harrier I didn't get one. I'm sure I saw silhouettes for both in the gacha menu

Sadly not, it seemed odd buying a game and not seeing the “Xbox One X Enhanced” logo at the top, I’m going to start playing it fully once I have finished Life is Strange:Before the Storm
Was worried about starting this after all the reported glitches and how it may have agreed badly. 6 hours in now and I couldn't be happier. It's just wonderful.
Was watching Jazzem's stream of it and a small part of me did want to try the game, but that review has also confirmed some of my concerns. Interesting to watch because it's a curio, but a game I would probably get pretty bored of before long.
That said it's cool that Shenmue is finally getting a port because of its following. I'm sure a good number of people will enjoy the nostalgia trip. A proper remake that deals with the game's faults or modernises it would be nice too, but it's good that the original is now a lot more easily accessible.
It's a game that makes a lot of sacrifices games don't really make anymore. There's a lot of mundane parts but they go a long way to enhancing the moments where exciting things to occur. The experience could have been better balanced but the attention to detail that went into every little thing for the sake of making it more lifelike is something I can't help but show a great amount of respect towards.
Back when it first came out, nothing like it had ever been seen before, it was genuinely groundbreaking. Even now the attention to detail is staggering (every character has his/her daily routine, the game guidebook released in 2000 also included their likes/dislikes, friends, home locations within the game world, birthdays, ages, and even more, some of this you don't even get in games today).
Sure, the graphics have aged and the controls are clunky, but the atmosphere is still there, and as someone who played through this game more times than any other (and so once knew every little tiny detail of it), i'm having an absolute blast.
