Sega has released some extremely impressive hi-res pictures from their upcoming non-RPG, Shen Mue. The quality is simply stunning -- these are pictures capable of being rendered on the fly by the Dreamcast's hardware, easily matching the quality of similar CG movies on Sony's PlayStation. The third picture, in particular, shows off the QTE battle system in the game, while the last four pictures display the transition from day into night.

We've resized and recompressed the pictures to fit them all in under 100k in size. For the full-sized renderings (many over 1 meg in size!), head on over to this site.
