    When an organisation based in Europe uses the American spelling of Harmonisation is it any wonder they cant get things right ?

    No apostrophe in "can't" or "what's," no capitalisation of "I," but your worst crime by far is your mangling of the phrase "hoist by my own petard." See me after class. :p

    If I remember correctly, first Shenmue was $80mil, thanks to low DC user base that title was doomed from the first day of release, not a bad game tho, but it wasn't killer app like GTA3(example) for PS2.
    Damn you Sega, I want another Jet Set Radio.

    Shenmue was certainly epic for the time (a year before GTA 3). I beat the first one probably 3 or 4 times and the second one (for the Xbox) twice. I would really love to see a third (plus HD re-releases of 1 and 2). There is a cult following still calling for a third to get the greenlight for the PS4. Doubt it will ever happen.

    Two years. Shenmue was released in December 1999 in Japan, nearly a full year before its western launch; GTA III came out at the end of November 2001.
