I'm a little disappointed that Kiryu doesn't have his trademark white suit with the red undershirt, but then again it'd make sense since he's apparently a taxi driver on here lol.


I think it's a good move, they're using a completely new graphics engine and have spent more development time than usual on this installment, so a new appearance for the star seals the deal of this being a mini 'evolution' of the series. 

He also looks trendy now.

I cant fucking wait! I just hope it gets localized, always the only thing i worry about when it comes to Yakuza games. Also finally taking place outside of Kamurocho! I was honestly starting get tired of the place. BRING IT SEGA... to north america =P



Certainly sounds fresh and different. Looked up some videos too.

Ill pick up Y3 and see how I feel about it.

One advice, don't expect much from graphics. That, is, it's going to have terrible visuals.

 

But other than that, everything about this game is amazing.

Hostess maker will make or break the game for me.  That's what made Yakuza 4 so manly.

Akiyama made Yakuza 4 girly, he was added to please increasing female Yakuza fan base in japan. So its not suprising you like him

The only awsome one besides Kiryu-chan was Saejima-san.


They did  good job with Akiyama's character regardless of his target audience. Akiyama is a very likable character and to hold his origin of creation against him is very hypocritical since you're a Raiden (MGS2) fan, and Raiden was created for the EXACT reason - to tend to the female crowd.

Hostess maker was the only thing I hated about the game. I platinumed Yakuza 4 and in order to unlock all hostesses you have to bring all hostesses to no.1, and I found it soooooo repetitive.


I put a good 80 hours in the game last Summer. I could never get the last Trophy. I think it was defeating all bosses in under 17 minutes. I crack under pressure (time limit) which is why I hate racing games.
