• Shenmue

  On a November day when the snow turned to rain, Ryu Hazuki arrives home just in time to see his father killed by Lan Di, a man Ryu's father obviously knew very well. Ryu attempts to stop Lan Di but is effortlessly beaten to within an inch of his life. After recovering from his injuries Ryu sets out to track down his father's murderer as well as uncover his family's secrets and the mystery of the Phoenix and Dragon mirrors sought by Lan Di. Shenmue is a superb game that incorporates elements of life simulation, adventure, and fighting with light role-playing. But the jewel of the Dreamcast crown faced a rude awakening on its release... The boys from Arcade Attack reflect on Shenmue and why it's so special.
