Yeah I am like that as well lol, TBH the challenges don’t tell you what weapons are in your inventory. If it gets too hard you probably have weapons on you.
Yeah one could argue Yakuza 1 may have turned potential fans away just because of the VA. Shenmue had bad VA but it was funny enough to keep a sense of nostalgia about it. Sadly Yakuza 1 VA is just awful, but the game and story are GDLK.
^Majima was Mark Hamill wasn’t he? And Michael Rosenbaum was the main foil (can’t remember his name now). Oh, and Michael Madsen as Futo Shimano right? Damn, they had some decent names doing the VA, shame it didn’t turn out all that well…
In any event I’ll have to give Yakuza 3/4 a shot in Ultimate skill mode again, I thought that would have just been the regualr game with some minor difficulty spikes, but it seems like theres a slew of new content to be found.
Example of ultimate skill in Yakuza 4. This is the semi-zombie mission so I can assume Dead Souls was inspired by this. [media=youtube]yTpcXrbdn_g[/media]
[details=Spoiler] There are 4 guns scattered around the parking lot. Zombies don’t die using physical attacks, thus finding the 4 guns is the only way to beat the mission. They have chase missions,battle,conditions and survival missions.
xD I love this series’ sense of humor, but I still don’t think I’ll get Dead Souls. I’m a bit squeamish about this kind of gory zombie violence stuff. =x
DS looks like a good title, it’s the 1st Yakuza I am gonna pass on though. I wonder how it will do sales wise cause RE:ORC comes out in the same month?
Yakuza: Black Panther 2 for the PSP has the chance to be one of the best Yakuza games; not only do you get to beat the living crap out of arrogant Japanese hoods and bums-
You also collect and take care of cats-
Fuck your weeaboo Barbie’s dollhouse/dress-up shit, this is some real manly stuff right there!
I remember hearing about an English patch/hack for the Black Panther games on PSP, any truth to that? I’m almost tempted to get a PSP to play those games if I can play in english.
Cool to see the playthrough of Yakuza as well, I’m still not 100% on the controls, but If they have the content and fun of the previous games it should be a winner.
Well Dead Souls is out over here but I only find US copies, and I want an EU, since I have 3 and 4 EU and while whatever bonus I would get wouldn’t be a big deal I kind of want to keep it consistent by getting an EU version.
Oh wells I might find one in the next few days.
Playing Yakuza 3 ATM, and at long last [spoiler=]I completed Rikiya’s tattoo ;.; I never did that in my first playthrough because I couldn’t find the tattoo shop (which is actually behind the Karaoke, and because I thought I can hang out with Rikiya in Kamuro in later events in the game…but then… ;.;[/spoiler]
Ah well was hoping to get DS for my b-day (today) but I’m cool with what that substory =)
