Revealed: Sega`s cancelled Shenmue HD remake - with fully updated graphics
(N4G PC)

From Digital Foundry: `Shenmue - a game of discovery and adventure. It`s a timeless classic and one with a deep and fascinating history - which becomes even more compelling today. As we know, Sega tasked UK developer d3t with remastering Shenmue and its sequel for the current generation consoles and PC. What we received was a good game that brought classic Shenmue to today`s machines, albeit with visuals based almost exclusively on the original AM2 assets. But what we now know is that prior to completing this work, plans were afoot for something considerably more ambitious - a comprehensive remake with completely revamped artwork more in step with the capabilities of the host platforms. We`ve seen it and today, you will too.`
