Oh yeah, there's a rumor from somewhere about Shenmue 3 on the X-Box 2. Don't know about this one though... or where it's really from...
Quote:Apparently Xbox 2 will be unveiled at the CES 2005, Just like Xbox was 3 years ago.http://www.yakyak.org/viewtopic.php?t=29903&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=15
As most of you probably know CES is the world's largest Consumer electronics show, And rumours going round are that Shenmue 3, and Bungie's next game alongside Perfect Dark 0 will be shown in trailer form.
That word has reached several european media publications and that Shenmue 3 is set to be unveiled by non-other than Yu Suzuki himself in 11 days time on the first day of CES 2005. It will be part of the XBox 2 presentation.
Bungie says that they will take some time away from Halo in order to persue another project, many sources saying that this game will be Phoenix/Breach, a game Bungie planned but then cancelled, then supposedly on track again. It was supposedly going to be a medieval type of game with a fantasy twist in it, but Bungie denies that Phoenix is still on.
As recently as October 2004, Craig Mullins, the artist for Bungie games including Marathon, released these artworks on his website.

Sounds more like a wishlist than anything else.
Xbox2 - OB1 - 3rd January 2005
HOLY COCK that better be true!! AAARRGGHH!! GAH, but it's too good to be true!!! Fucking Shenmue III!!! Stop toying with my emotions, stupid rumor sites!!!! STOP TOYING... WITH MY... *runs away sobbing like mad*
Xbox2 - A Black Falcon - 3rd January 2005
Calm down, OB1, it's probably a wishlist. Though there's a small chance it could be true... :evil:
Xbox2 - OB1 - 3rd January 2005
I hate you for posting that. I really do.
Xbox2 - Great Rumbler - 3rd January 2005
We'll know for sure in 11 days.
Xbox2 - Private Hudson - 4th January 2005
Perfect Dark 0 being shown in trailer form for XBox 2?
Well, I guess we better hope XBox 2 is successful enough to warrent Microsoft to make XBox 3, otherwise we might NEVER get to play Perfect Dark 0!
And what the fuck? "Bungie's next game"?? Well Jesus "Fucking" Christ, I wonder if that'll be Halo 3!? Or rather.. Halo ... 1.75!! hehe.... eheheh.. you see, I made a joke about Halo 2 being so similar.. to.. Halo 1... so Halo 3 would be just like...
Ok, let me try that again..
.. I wonder if they'll rename the next one to... Halow! HAH! That was.. so much...
...
...
I'm sorry. :(
Xbox2 - Dark Jaguar - 4th January 2005
You better be.
*looks at trailer*
This... is the greatest underwater display... ever...
Xbox2 - A Black Falcon - 4th January 2005
Bungie might not make Halo 3, it's not certain you know... I mean they will eventually, but it might not be their next game.
Xbox2 - OB1 - 4th January 2005
Their next game might be the finished version of Halo 2.
Xbox2 - A Black Falcon - 4th January 2005
Heh... :)
Xbox2 - Great Rumbler - 4th January 2005
Their next game might be a Halo game with good single player...but maybe not.
Xbox2 - A Black Falcon - 4th January 2005
It's nice that Bungie put co-op into Halo and Halo 2. Unfortunately, they forgot to make the game worth playing enough for people to want to PLAY it in co-op... :D
That said, there are a lot of Halo... though I don't know why... I mean, Halo/Halo 2 isn't AWFUL, but it is definitely not deserving of the levels of praise that the games have recieved.
Xbox2 - A Black Falcon - 4th January 2005
Color that rumor very unlikely.
Quote: Microsoft has never commented on the possibility that Xbox 2 will appear at the show, and insiders at the company have told GamesIndustry.biz that anyone expecting to see Xbox 2 in Las Vegas this week would be making "a wasted trip".
The likely venue for more information about Xbox 2 to be announced now looks like being the Game Developers Conference - which we mention with a sense of deja vu, since an announcement Xbox 2 was expected there last year as well, but ultimately turned out to be the launch of the XNA development platform instead.
VE3D.

If it was basically concenstrated as a pc game, I bet Halo 2 would have been a exspansion add on and not a sequeil.
Xbox2 - A Black Falcon - 5th January 2005
Yeah, probably an expansion. Possibly a 'stand-alone expansion', but a normal expansion is more likely... though a lot of sequels don't change much from the first ga,e. most popular PC games get expansions so Halo would have had one.
