Oh really? How many times have you spent chasing a guy across rooftops because he's been out stealing women's panties?

3 games at once. A skilled gamer, he is

Can I just say that this game has some of the greatest side missions ever?

Can't wait for Shenmue!

​thanks, I actually ordered from Amazon yesterday. order is on its way today.

damn it! I really want this game, but previous instalments haven't sold well and the price has dropped not long after launch. Due to this I have been watching the release of this carefully, ...... a lot of places have sold out now, and there's no sign of a price drop

A Sega Japan console game? In 2017? :confused:

Its amazing how much traction this series is getting after how well received 0 is. Its so unique, with so much to do with a great story.

He's wearing the suit that Kazuma Kiryu wears in the yakuza games, it's called cosplay.
Go home casual gamer, candy crush is waiting for you. :laughing:

He (Angry Joe) appears to be am insufferable imbecile, I want to cut off my ears within seconds of his appalling review and tragic suit (am I supposed to be impressed with his YouTube funded lifestyle?). He has no redeeming qualities but but perhaps he appeals to a younger audience who aspire to be *****?

Heat. Love love love Yakuza.

TLoU and Gravity Rush are my favourite Sony franchises... Love both of those games.

I wouldn't go so far as to dismiss the PS4 (even at launch). Sure, the library was arguably anaemic. But it was always going to be an investment, unlike the Wii U where the software releases have dried up and where they were always over-rated in the first place. And where the hardware just collects dust in many peoples' houses where it didn't even get two years of use.

At the same time, you can always use your PS4 for Netflix and Amazon Prime Video etc, as well as Blu Ray. And that's without even considering PS Plus subscription games and the flood of HIGH QUALITY releases which we are getting now, where a lot of games are REALLY CHEAP in comparison to the RIDICULOUSLY OVER-PRICED £60 Nintendo developed games.

I'm going to buy my PS5 Day One. Because I have faith in Sony. And because the PS4 (irrespective of its semi-high launch price) has more than proved its worth in terms of being a multi-purpose gaming device.

At the same time, I know that £50-60 can afford me a lot more entertainment from more wholesome sources. For example, I recently bought 2 books from a charity shop - for the princely sum of £1. Given the time required to read them, as well as the value I will get out of the investment (educating oneself, exercising the mind, increasing one's creativity etc), I know that they'll prove to offer far more value than anything that Nintendo can ever concoct up.

Pfft... £60 for a glorified mobile phone game? I don't think so...

That shouldn't be too hard considering Naughty Dog games have crap storylines.

I want to get one too, but not going to HK anytime soon. HK psn points are difficult and expensive to get, play asia or ebay is not cheap either for Chinese version.

I get strong Shenmue vibes from this release. Anyone who wants another Shenmue, should probably get this..

I bought it in HK when I was there last christmas. Got it about HKD350.Still haven't got time to play it though haha.

It is different. I'm a massive fan of Naughty Dog in general Tlou is brilliant. Into Mafia/family/gangs then this is perfect.

glad i'm chinese I've even got yakuza 6 Trad. chinese from Hong Kong for about 35 quid :P

Im playing 3 to 5 now and the story is so good. Probably the best series SEGA has done in years

That sounds decent :smiley:
From what I've heard there are some hilarious moments as well!

Oh really? How many times have you spent chasing a guy across rooftops because he's been out stealing women's panties?

What a brilliant game. Love the series prior via Import but bringing it to the west is fantastic. It's like Shenmue meets Sleeping dogs.

The story telling is one of the best in any game from the last say 5 years. Combat is good and overall intriguing.

Loads of things to do on the side like arcade games, Outrun is one of them.

This is an exclusive worth owning that will go under the radar. Bring on Yakuza 6!

Exactly. Why anyone would want a Switch with barely any good games while PS4 is getting flooded with games to play is beyond me. I was a near PS4 launch buyer and it was painful just waiting for a good game to play with massive droughts of nothing. I wont ever buy a system near launch again and that includes PS5 whenever that releases.

For those that have played this, how are you finding it?

Can I just say that this game has some of the greatest side missions ever?

Glad I'm not the only one who appreciates Angry Joe. Honesty is so rare in reviews these days!

Can't wait for Shenmue!

​That's great.

Reminder that AngryJoe's first console was an Xbox360 ;]

It looks great, wish Sega would reconsider a PC/Steam version. I'm sure it would have an audience.

If you want it right now, argos had some stock in certain stores for £39.99

Best racing INCLUDING Mario Kart! Outrun has a fantastic summer vibe about it, only enhanced by the music and best thing about outrun is you can have a blast all by yourself where as Mario Kart really needs multiple players to shine...

This "support the developer/artist" thing has ruined my life. Its always good to support them, but spend wisely and don't be brainwashed like i was.

Just playing this right now. Absolute gem so far. Can't believe I slept on this franchise for so long!

Pretty sure the pre-order discount won't work well considering its been out a week

Haha glad to have had a part in the spreading word on what games to play or avoid

And yes, Joe has chosen xbox over PS in the past. That's why all of his past kinect videos are filled with comic frustrating burning rage, because he really wanted the thing to work but it just didn't work. He recently did a big rant on how microsoft really screwed up by canceling Scalebound, their only exclusive this year.

Anyone knows whether its the slim version comparing to Japan release

Hi luffydude. It's actually thanks to you I came across angryjoe.
You posted his review of a **** game I posted a deal about.
Been watching all the old vids and am now subscribed.
Top 10 worst games of the year videos have me in tears :laughing:

Cheers pal, I didn't even know I get a free twitch sub with my Prime
Although im probably gonna sub a smaller channel. Joe is a behemoth already

Was about to post the Angry Joe review in here but guess people in this site are well informed :smiley:

It really looks like a great game that I will love but will probably wait until it drops to £30

If you can get past the first 1m30secs (in the knowledge that's it's a in-game joke that will reveal itself in the video) it's a great review on the game

Angry Joe is pretty clued up and his recommendations are rarely very wrong. This got 8/10

Yakuza 0 Angry Review YouTube

The angry Joe review? Lol

Worth it for the free turkey alone.

Wanting to play some of the old school Sega games that are in the arcade in this game....bit like in Shenmue...Super Hang on, Outrun and there is another I forget the name of right now

Great game, worth the money.

Found a guy dancing in a club by himself whilst only wearing a nappy. Wasted far too much time on him!

Back in stock Jan 31st

Come on Sega, localise Ishin now, you know you want to!

Why is it classed as a pre order? I've been playing since last week. Very fun game.

This has been really well reviewed and looks like a game I would love to play. Had I more money and less games on to to play list, I would love to buy this to give Sega and the underrated Yakuza series some much deserved support, after all why should Nintendo get all the attention with their overpriced Switch.

Would urge anyone on the fence to give it a try, looks a fantastic open world game with great attention to detail and retro Sega references....

It's a niche title... It probably won't be sub-£20. But I'm going to wait for the day when it is...

Waiting until Black Friday 2017.
