Shenmue 3, Shenmue 3, Shenmue 3.

Sega's keep giving little teasers saying Shenmue 3's not completely out the question, and as much as i'd love to see it the game does have limited appeal now, and i don't think Sega's got the money to make a $100m+ gamble like that, i mean Shenmue was used to help shift Dreamcasts like Mario, Gran Turismo and Halo are used now, so i think we should leave our dreams back before they were cast.
