Shenmue 2

Ok I got shenmue 2 a while back and I haven't found an arcade or a place where I can practice my moves. WTF! Does Ryo have a saturn in this version because I won space harrier in the first one and I want to play it. The storyline in this game is better than the first also the envoirments are much larger, but all the little things seem to be missing. Anyone else feel this way?

What's really missing from Shenmue II is a sequel!

Seriously though, I didn't find any place for free practice either. I never bothered with the mini games, so I dunno about that. One thing I hated was earning money. Either haul crates (boring) or play plinko (also boring). Great story though. It's too bad Suzuki didn't use more of the tried and true conventions of the adventure genre, he has a great story to tell that's hindered by a clunky interface.

Yeah, taking the training out really pissed me off. It really changed the game, and among other big reasons, I didn't like the second game as much.
