I am not sure what you think but it seems strange to leave out Shenmue 1 and start the series on Shenmue 2, Shenmue 3 is also in the making but Shenmue 1 was the prequel to all of Ryu's adventures and I for one would love to see this game appear on the Xbox!
Maybe a double sided DVD with just a straight port of Shenmue 1 with enhanced graphics would work. I know you have talked about this before but with the launch of Shenmue 2 only a few months away and with hands on at E3 of this game I think it is about time we got to know the full story of what will be included on the disc.
Shenmue 2 is the start of Ryu's journey and Shenmue 1 was just a prequel to this. At the moment I am in 2 minds on wether or not to purchase a dreamcast just so I can play and complete Shenmue 1, but if it is included on the Xbox version then I won't bother.
Has anyone got any news on Shenmue 2 and what it will include as I am sure we all want to find out the story behind it?

Ive actually been wondering if they will port Shenmue 1 onto the Box, it does seem a bit pointless starting from the second game in the series, we shall see
;)
Whether this is still the case I'm not sure.
If Shenmue 2 sells well I'm sure Shenmue 1 will be released.
Having played both installments, I would say that there's nothing wrong with playing Shenmue 2 first - doing so would in no way diminish your enjoyment of Shenmue 1.
