you know, you could get shenmue II on teh x box for nine dollars at gamestop, right?

Fuck it. I bought a Euro copy of Shenmue II for the Dreamcast about 7 years ago. I knew that it was coming out for Xbox, but didn't want to shell out 200 bucks for the system and the game. It was worth fifty bucks, but there was no way in hell I was going to buy an Xbox just to play the sequel of one of my most favorite Dreamcast games.

In further response: I guess I misspoke, I should have said "the only real way to play Shenmue II in the 'States." I still am having a hard time adjusting to playing Sonic on Nintendo. Plus, it originally was set for a Dreamcast release. Then, the bastards cancelled it and ported it to the more successful Xbox. Don't get me started on this one. I was pissed. Until I found the Euro version. Now I'm only pissed that there's not going to be a third one.
