Shenmue III[edit]

This article was already deleted on February: [1] and the situation has not improved since then. There have been no concrete evidence that the development of this game has begun. Mika1h 12:08, 3 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - I know the article as it stands is quite awful, but the second series of the BBC Scotland show VideoGaiden is currently days away from starting, and one of the main recurring features this year will be a campaign to get Shenmue III produced. This campaign is gaining quite a bit of publicity on numerous forums, and the show has not even started yet. Perhaps we should wait to see the result of this campaign, first? --Dreaded Walrus 14:01, 3 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Unfortunately the article is comprised entirely of speculation. The Kikizo article, the only source referenced, is old and obsolete. ˉˉ^anetode╦╩ 16:52, 3 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Keep as a notable and highly anticipated upcoming console game. Surely sources such as GameSpy and Kikizo are not considered dodgy. Yamaguchi先生 04:31, 4 November 2006

Shenmue Dojo is a fansite hosted by Gamespy. Gamespy editors got nothing do with the site. As for the Kikizo article, as pointed above, is old and obsolete. --Mika1h 08:41, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Article can be recreated if/when Shenmue III is officially announced. --Alan Au 09:28, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep per the mention in EGM. --- RockMFR 19:18, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, "inevitable" sequels are generally not noteworthy until officially confirmed. Garrett^Talk 03:59, 5 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
