Should I set up a petition to get Sega to release Shenmue 3 on DC, on www. petitiononline.com? If I started it now, it would have loads of signatures by say, March (I don't know when Shenmue 3 is coming out). Even if we had to wait till after it had been brought out on the other consoles for our release, we musn't let Sega neglect its loyal fans.

YI - do what is right without hesitation. Unless we get Shenmue 3 on DC, Sega will not have obeyed YI (one of the four wude. If you don't know, play Shenmue 2).

What do people think?

I think we all know that Shenmue 3 will never get a DC release. But I do hope that there may be a possibility of a multi-format release.

I said elsewhere that I have played and completed the first two on the DC, and I feel that I have wasted all that time and effort because it will be impossible for me to finish the story if it is an X-Box exclusive, just like many other Shenmue fans.

Production of Dreamcast consoles and games ended ages ago. Sega aren't going to put more money into a console that no one can buy anymore are they!

Well, Ive signed it, I know there is little, if no chance, that it will appear on DC, but I hope to see a multi-format release.

Only 7 signatures since yesterday though, Liam, I think we need to make more people aware of this petition.

Shenmue 3 is NOT comming to Dreamcast.... WHY?

Because Microsoft have the rights to the game!!!!!! So its ONLY going to come out on their console. To be honest I would want Shenmue 3 on XBox cos I wanna see the game really pushed, I wanna see the XBox pushed. Im hoping when or IF Shenmue 3 is released on XBox I think it should be the best graphical looking game on XBox. Shenmue 3 on DC would have sooo much slow down and fade in, it would ruin the series. I believe that Shenmue 3 was to be intended for Segas next console until DC failed. But as I said, MS own the rights to that game, so the petition (I am afraid to say) is completely pointless, no matter how many signatures you get.

There is more chance of Halo comming to Dreamcast than Shenmue 3. We have to be realistic here! Shenmue 3 aint comming to DC I am afraid to say.

Sorry, forgot to say in my last message that I'll have the petition up either on Friday evening, or by Sunday evening. Then I'll post on FOG chat.

Interesting point there. I never thought of it that way. But in terms of Sega getting back on their feet, a multiformat release would be worth their while.

I don't think Shenmue III should be multi-format, but I'd have nothing against it appearing on the Dreamcast aswell-as one-other console.

Shenmue games are special and unique... A truly fantastic experience.
I fear that by making it multi-format, like so-many-other games, it would only ruin it in the long-run.

But no matter what console it does come-out on, I'll have it in-time!
