mountain dew insimination      So much going on with this franchise that warrants mentioning...
I remember the first being touted as game experience that would revolutionize video games forever. It turned out to be a SHITLOAD of mini-games (even the combat system was a mini-game).
However the most bizarre memory I have was getting a defective disc that froze Ryo-San in the "forklift operator mode" of the game. Ryo was supposed to save up enough to make up the deficit needed to get to Hong Kong, culminating with a giant 100 man throwdown to end the first chapter of the game with a bang. The only problem was...I worked and worked...for weeks...and the final showdown never came even when I had enough fucking yen. It was like being doomed to a virtual life of forklifting crates for eternity.

Camonk      They really captured the essence of Hong Kong right there. Just tons of dudes taking your picture with old ass cameras and shit. It's really a great city.

fluffy      Nice to see Shenmue 2 was even more realistic than the first one.

boner      I like when you go around asking everybody in Hong Kong if they know a kid named "Wong" and they all immediately know who you are talking about.
