Microsoft has announced that the retail version of Shenmue II for the Xbox will include the DVD of Shenmue: The Movie as a bonus. Shenmue: The Movie, which was originally shown in Japanese theaters, blends footage from the Dreamcast version of Shenmue together to deliver a movielike experience. Shenmue II continues the adventures of Ryo Hazuki as he attempts to track down the man responsible for his father's death.
Shenmue II is scheduled for release this November

I might have to rent an XBox to check this out. I wonder if they will have bad English Dubbing or just subtitle it all.

Here's the Shenmue movie trailer:

You know, they had something similar to this for the DC version. A bunch of FMV from Shenmue showing the story up to that point.

This will be good, becase some people (like me) don't know the full story for the first Shenmue game, and when they buy Shenmue 2, they will be filled in on all the details.
