Yakuza: Kiwami as well.


1 out of 7 games (and I'm probably forgetting a few) is still pretty damn far from "at this rate".

The events leading up to the fruition of the Yakuza series is very interesting. Sony was the only one that bought into the series' potential.

"At the beginning of the project we spoke to all the platform holders including Sony and Microsoft," he said, "Every platform holder was negative about this prospect, but we kept on pushing because we believed in the potential, and as we kept going one platform holder that showed interest and saw the prospects of this title was Sony.

That's how we started working with them, and that's probably not going to change."

From Eurogamer. The article is old, but I would say it's still relevant to today.

I can't say I played much of their newer games, but I absolutely loved Yakuza 1.
