Anyone else picking this up?
I quite enjoyed Y3, so hopefully this will be just as good.

And its only £29.86, on a certain site

I haven't got round to playing 3 yet. Hopefully they haven't taken content out of the game this time!

Noxia · 15 Mar 2011 at 09:43

By the time I get round to it the game will be £12. I did like 3 but it was too hard for me to Plat.
Edit: They haven't taken the content out for this one

Isn't this delayed because of what happened in japan?

Psycho Ned · 15 Mar 2011 at 11:55

No that was the spin off sequel coming out in Japan which doesn't have a western release date yet:

ah good to hear.

I played the demo all the way through and I'm not sure I 100% understand. Is there a story or anything? Because all I did was beat 7 shades of **** out of a bunch of people in a series of different disguises

Yes there is a very good big involving story, as with most Yakuza games, the demo was just giving you a taste of some of the fighting moves 7/10 From Edge, which is a very good score from them

Demo was a very bad representation of the game.

Phatjayunoi · 15 Mar 2011 at 15:28

The Yakuza 4 demo was only showing off the combat side of things.

Anyways, just got email confirmation that my pre-order is on the way.

I think the only content that was taken out is the Answer & Answer mini-game, but otherwise, everything else should remain intact.

Mr_Orange · 15 Mar 2011 at 15:36

Hmm, might be worth a look!

Another reason to get a PS3 when the price next drops.

gjrc · 15 Mar 2011 at 15:41

blueshift · 17 Mar 2011 at 12:28

Well i been playing it for a few hours now and its fantastic, excellent story, characters, the city looks beautiful, they have tightend up the combat, great stuff

I like the expansion of Kamurocho, especially with the new rooftop areas.

If I keep hearing interesting things about this; it could well become my first PS3 purchase in some time!
