yeah shenmue is getting pretty good now, even though it's just talking to a series of different people and walking around town, i couldn't stop doing it.

The cure is to keep talking to Tom at the Hot dog van..he'll make you stop playing.

Bleh.
The voice acting for the 'extras' on the street is utter shite... just listen to the guy who says "Sorry, I'm too tired to talk right now."

who says that
Nova
Is that a Caanoo in your pocket or are you just ha
There's some obligatory 'tough guy' on the streets of shenmue 1 who says "Kiss off, twit". That saying alone is worthy of some kid of award.
Also, the shenmue control system is crapola. Why not make it so you can move with the analogue slick and look around with the directional pad instead of the reverse?

I guess because looking around with the d-pad would be even more awkward than walking is.
I encountered two people who were 'tired', one at the construction site and one at the soba bar. The former actually sounded tired, but the other guy was on caffeine or some shit. His eyes were lit up.
It's really quite stupid/amusing that the Mahjongg guy 'stayed up all night playing mahjongg' EVERY SINGLE NIGHT so you can never play it. And the bike guy, Ono-san, comes up with a ridiculous series of excuses including having to fix a bike ASAP every time I ask him for help.

as for sonic rush i think it's got great art, pretty good music, fun gameplay except for the blind jumps and 'if you're not running right now, you'll die' bits, and the trick system makes the 'hold forward for ten seconds straight' parts more fun. i also like the fact you can choose from two different levels to play if you're unable to beat one, although i'm rapidly getting better at the game so this isn't an issue.
