Quantcast


Dreamcast build of Shenmue III spotted? Nah. photo

Ah, pictures on the internet. You can't really trust them, can you? Sometimes wishful thinking (and a bit of Photoshop) can get the best of our imaginations. We could hope this picture (below the jump) is real. Unfortunately I don't think it is.

Apparently there was a Sega blog post that pointed to pictures of a Sega storage room. I can't find this blog, but we do have a link to Sega of America's Flickr account. In it, there's a picture of a bunch of spindles of Dreamcast builds, and Gemaga says that one is a build of Shenmue III. Sorry, I'm just not seeing it. Even the 2848x2136 image shows nothing of the sort. F*ckers.

It's not a total bust, though. For fun, browse through the Sega storeroom photos in our gallery below, which supposedly feature every Sega game ever made.

Hit the jump to see the offending 'shop. Send hate mail to Gemaga if you wish.

Wow, that's not even a good Photoshop. People just want to believe it is, apparently.

Also, Shenmue III would be nice. ;)

There's a few things that bug me about gaming fans on the internet. First is their hope for Shenmue 3, I don't think the first two were profitable and I doubt that another installment would change the trend.

The other is whenever a new console or big game is supposed to come out months after E3 and a gamer inevitably will post something to the effect "Maybe they'll announce that it's coming out the day after E3". I've seen similar posts for (but not limited to): 360, Wii, PS3, FFXIII, MGS4, GTA4. Sometimes I wish the Saturn just hadn't been made.

Um, the photos are real.

Whether or not that game is in one, I have no idea.

SHENMUE III FOR DREAMCAST CONFIRMED! 9/9/09!!

Sega Saturn was possibly the greatest console of ALL TIME. Dreamcast was also awesome, but the Saturn had an even better selection. I guess the reason it isn't as fondly remembered is because people didn't buy it after it was pronounced dead, unlike the Dreamcast.

oh yeah, and lol @ dude typing his photoshop rather than bother to make it look handwritten.
