So this is confirmed the Dreamcast version and not the XBOX version for Shenmue 2?
[Pioneering Dreamcast classics available for the first time on PC]

I am curious because some would say the XBOX version was better than the Dreamcast due to it's power/resolution. Yet the XBOX version also had a strange bloom or blur effect that the Dreamcast did not. Are we going to get the one or the other or the XBOX without the distracting bloom/blur effects? Or even better because it is PC and they are going to clean it up a little?

Also it should be noted that there were many, although minor, changes in the actual look of the game world, from a simple shelf removed here to a sign change there, to a complete texture swap, etc. Which version are we going to get or are they going to further change the world to how they see fit for the PC?

And in saying that, if they did that to Shenmue 2, how much of the game world would they change for Shenmue 1 for the better or for the worse?

You sure about that? That would be extra extra with hardly a point to it.

They've stated you can enable or disable the bloom effect.

Thats what I have read as well. On the one hand there are better visuals on the xbox Version most notably the watereffekts. Some small details in Hongkong like some shopsigns however are missing in the xbox version.

You can turn off that stupid bloom effect so it can be like the Dreamcast version with the Xbox effects etc.

As someone that owns both versions I can confirm that the Xbox version has a odd glow on everything, it's not a bad thing in my opinion, makes the environments look warmer, I guess some people didn't like that.

But you can turn if off on the HD release?

Not only that Sega also confirmed that you can change the resolution of the game from 1080p to 480p and play the game that way like you did if you had the component Video cables for Xbox or the VGA box for the Dreamcast. Not sure on how many would take advantage of this in this day and age but it's there.
