Shenmue 1 & 2 Pack for PS4 and Xbox One Possibly Leaked By Multiple Retailers

This morning DualShockers put out an article saying that mulitple retailers in Europe had leaked a Bayonetta/Vanquish Pack for Xbox One and PS4:

Basically, a number of European retailers have added listings for this multipack which adds to its validity.

Either way, a couple of hours later, DualShockers then announced that the same had happened with a Shenmue 1 and 2 pack:

They have reached out to Sega for a comment, but even if they don't reply, I'm sure we will see an announcement of the Bayonetta/Vanquish pack very soon as its release date (according to the leak) is October/November. If that happens, it adds more credibility to the leak.

Let's wait and see, and hope that this is true!

If this is true, I hope there's a PC version!

I still have Shenmue and a Dream cast ready to finally at it for the first time but I just haven't got round to it yet!

I'd absolutely pick this up if it were true.

I'm surprised more people aren't talking about this! You bunch of philistines!

It's clearly a case of not if, but when. SEGA definitely have something up their sleeve!

I loved Shenmue back on the dreamcast but I can't imagine it has aged well at all. "Have you seen any sailors?" "Do you know where sailors hang out?".

Just stop by the arcade..... And forget the rest

Please no more teasing Sega and co. I need this in my life.

I don't think it's aged that well either. It was great for its time and had some really nice moments but overall it felt more like a tech demo with a lot of pointless elements tacked on. I appreciate it for what it tried to do, but still. Highly ambitious but also highly flawed.

I watched let's plays of it and wouldn't want to play it myself after all that time. Yakuza has far surpassed it in terms of sheer fun factor and scope but I hope part III turns out great.

Yeh as much as I think I would like to see this its probably best we dont. Some things are best left as awsome memories.

I'd like the opportunity to play them again, as I no longer own a Dreamcast. No one complained when they remastered the original Turok games and released them on Steam!

It makes perfect sense, especially with Shenmue 3 on the horizon.

I think you'd be right. It seemed amazing being able to walk around the small town free-romaing and go in the arcade. Can do that on most games now. I'd maybe play it for the nostalgia though

Shenmue 1 was novel when it was on the Dreamcast but only really because of the graphics/speech at the time. I always thought it was more of a tech demo than a fully fledged game. I didn't realise it had such a following! Personally I have no interest in going back to play it again now!

I still have my Dreamcast and a copy of shenmue in fact

The DC copies are worth a bit now. I remember being shocked when i sold mine that i got about the same as i paid for it many years later!

I'm similar the the guys above. Initial thoughts are this is excellent i'd love to play it again but the reality is i probably wouldn't. Spending about 30 mins moving crates around with a forklift isn't my idea of fun now i'm not a teenager with nothing better to do with my life!
