Yakuza 5: Person Who Fulfills Dreams

In the image I posted, look at his left ear, the hair just below that ear, and then the jawline right next to both. I'll admit, they're pretty close, but the model just doesn't stack up to QD's.

[Diresu]

Don't really play those games for the graphics, and quite frankly the same holds true for ND and QD games. They are a bonus.

Same holds for every game really.

But wasn't the debate specifically about graphics?

And that is their position on the debate. I was just trying to give some credit to a team that is usually overlooked in the west. I didn't mean for this to become a debate.

And relative to the other games in the series 5 is a big improvement, so to me it's exciting, but everyone knows I am a bit biased when it comes to this series

One of the few games that integrates side activities into the game perfectly. And so much of it too!

Absolutely love this series. Platinume'd Y3, urge to get Y4 Platinum slowly rising.

[D3adcell]

Is taiko fully playable though?

[Diresu]

Damnit, this better come state side.

Japanese Demo is up

[solidsnakejej]

Famitsu gave the game a 40 but I'm not sure how much weight that holds anymore.

[Diresu]

-sigh- I really should avoid watching these.

Famitsu Review

Yakuza 5 (PS3) – 10/10/10/10

[AC!D]

Are there no other more reliable sites or mags in Japan?

[Diresu]

Are there no other more reliable sites or mags in Japan?

For the most part, no.

[curryking1]

You know what's fun? Kiryu beating up the entire of the Yakuza. So yea I hope this gets localized too.

However, I'm never going to like Japanese pop dance style. It's like watching pylons. Seriously. Learn to dance properly.

[AC!D]

I saw that the HD collection was released in Japan. Does anyone know if we are getting it or is it going AWOL like Valkyria Chronicles 3?

They haven't anything about a western release not even a hint of it, their financial situation suggest it's not likely as their focusing on a handful of retail games. If any release were to happen I would guess it'd be digital.

[AC!D]

At the very least they should go digital since both are already localized. It would be stupid not to.

[Diresu]

If Y5 is the first main series game to not get localized I will be pissed, as it's the biggest upgrade to the series to date.
