I have just discovered these games. I bought Yakuza 3 last week, not knowing what to expect. I was in for a surprise. I immediatly fell in love with it. I could not stop playing. I went back and bought the fourth one. Since then, I even managed to find the first and second one for the PS2. My collection is now complete and I only paid 60$ for all the games.
Yakuza 3 is the best game I have played in a long time. The story and characters are better than most of the movies or books I have read. It makes you feel like you really are in Japan. I cared so much for the characters that I actually chocked up on a few scenes. And as weird as it may seem, the voice acting, in japanese, is one of the main reason I enjoyed this game as much. Their is so much to do that I actually finished the main story in 25 hours with a 10% total completion of the things I could do.
Yakuza 1 froze on me (it seems to be a known issue) so I went for the second one. Again, even if it's a PS2 game, amazing. I have so much gaming to do in this serie. That's awesome. And now, Yakuza Dead Souls is coming. YES!
