Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio (Yakuza, Judgment, Binary Domain + more!) Discussion Thread

I'd be surprised if at least Y0 and two Kiwami entries don't show up on PC. Maybe they're waiting to touch up 3, 4 and 5 first for PS4 or something so they can sell an overpriced collection?

 

[karoliner]

That would be incline so chances of it happening are very low.

 

[Talby]

Baka PC gaijin too dishonorobu to pray superior Nippon steel Yakuza.

 

[Jugashvili]

Are any of these localized? Is there a Mandarin version?

 

[sullynathan]

Japanese are shameless in their remakes and rehashes

 

[Abu Antar]

I passed the test.

 

[Deflowerer]

Sucks that they removed the cigarette heat move from later games. Was so fucking badass!

Yakuza 6 delayed to April 17.

3 days before God of War. Not long after Ni No Kuni 2.

It's as if SEGA don't give a fuck.

 

[aweigh]

anyone here tried out any of the yakuza games on RPCS3? normally i would just download and try for myself (the performance/compat) but we're talking 20-30gbs here, plus additionally i don't know which yakuza game (for ps3) would even be worth 'trying out'.

thought i'd just ask here first.

You have to wonder how much of an overlap there is in those cases.

They don't. Yakuza 6 bombed.

 

[Abu Antar]

They don't have much overlap, but it's about releasing the game in a calm period.

There are many games releasing during that timeframe.

[sullynathan]

What's the best game in the franchise now? Yakuza 0, 5, ishin or 6?

 

[Abu Antar]

I like 4 the most. Haven't finished 5 and 0, though. I'd kill for Ishin and Kenzan localizations.

 

[Siveon]

Would 3 be a decent place to start? I could go 3->4->5->0->1 (remake) -> 2(remake).

I would like to wait for 3, 4 and 5 to get ported but I have them on PS3 already

 

[Abu Antar]

3 is an okay place to start. I played 1-2-3-4-5-0.

Be warned, though... 3 starts of very slow. Stick with it. 4 is great all around (imo). It's especially fun to play around with the different fighting styles. Also getting to know the new playable characters. 5 is great fun, but I have only played a little. 0, I have barely touched.

I haven't played the remakes. The originals are clunky. The first game hasn't aged well from a gameplay perspective. Both 1 or 2 are most defo worth a playthrough, though. 1 isn't very long and more straight to the point. 2 is a bit longer, but still not as long as the PS3 games. I quite liked that aspect, to be honest.

 

[Deflowerer]

Btw, with Yakuza 6 coming out in the west in April, there's also Kiwami 2 coming this year:

Hype as fuck! Been playing the series since the first Yakuza PS2 and really great to see the series going strong in west too.

 

[kalganoat]

Best is still 0. 0, Kiwami 1 and 2 are all worth playing. Skip the rest.

 

[CrimsonAngel]

Buh you suck

All of the Games are worth playing how ever right now if you only had 1 choice i would play 0 it is the most stand alone or Kiwami as it is remake of 1

You are retarded and have no taste at all if you think 3 to 6 are good

NO your retarded if you dont like 3-5 (i have yet to play 6) they are solid games and they might not be as good as 1,2 and 0, but they are still good games.

 

[Great Deceiver]

worth playing 1 and 2 on an emulator if I can't be arsed to buy a ps3 or ps4?

 

[Ivan]

wait for inevitable pc ports

One hasn't aged very well, but still worth it, in my opinion.
