Free Japanese Binary Domain DLC on Xbox 360 is region free

Posted by George on Mar 15th, 2012


So if you didn’t know, Japanese consumers have been treated to free DLC for Binary Domain. We English speakers haven’t received such luxury. But you know what? I really want this DLC, since it lets you play as Yakuza characters in mulitplayer. Sadly, I own the Playstation 3 version and I tried downloading the DLC from the Japanese PSN store.  Guess what? Nothing.

 
Though the Xbox 360 version will work with the Japanese DLC. Isn’t it ironic that it doesn’t work on the Playstation 3 after they boasted so much about it being region free?  Thanks to Sanus, who wrote about the Xbox 360 DLC being region free. The DLC adds Goro Majima as the ‘Crusher’ class with a shotgun, Shun Akiyama as the ‘Gunner’ with a submachine gun, and Ryuji Goda is the ‘Defender’ with a heavy machinegun. Kazuma Kiryu sadly isn’t free DLC, it was a pre-order bonus in Japan. More screenshots of the DLC can be found here.

Goro Majima’s story in Yakuza of the End…

Posted by George on Mar 13th, 2011



It seems that poor Majima will be playing the ‘bitten hero’ in the latest Yakuza installment. After his eyes start to turn red, he starts to worry about himself becoming one of the undead. He tells Kazuma and Misuzu Asaki that he can no longer travel with the pair due to being bitten.

He then takes refuge with Daigo Dojima in a shopping mall in Kamuroco Hills. It’s a zombie game, of course there will be a mall somewhere! They then get rescued by homeless people (bum power) and run into the Florist of Sai. Where his journey takes him you will have to play the game to find out.

Also, this is how I also hold my shotgun for press renders.

SEGA launches teaser site for Goro Majima’s Yakuza game

Posted by George on Jul 1st, 2010



Goro Majima, a man known for destruction and being a bit bat shit crazy. Well, in the next Yakuza game, you will be able to step into his very pointy shoes. SEGA have now confirmed that this PS3 game will be coming soon, at least information, at TGS 2010.

The game will have fundamental changes. The game will keep the level of drama, adventure and fighting from previous games. Also revealed, the ‘new hostess’ contest that everyone thought was for the PSP Yakuza game, was actually for this one. So hostess will return with Majima’s charm.

New Yakuza game to appear at TGS

Posted by George on Jun 29th, 2010


Some new details on an unannounced Yakuza game have emerged online, stating that they don’t know yet if it will be a numbered title. The information coming from Famitsu suggest that it will star, our favorite bad guy, Goro Majima!

• The main character is Goro Majima
• The story will be something that could not be done for anyone but Majima
• The keyword and concept for the game are “Destruction”
• Game systems will see changes at the most fundamental levels
• Details on the game will be announced at September’s Tokyo Game Show

It should be interesting playing as Majima, seeing as he is the most intresting character in the Yakuza series. No platform has been announced yet, but its safe to assume it will be on the Playstation 3. Maybe they will shock us and make it a Nintendo 3DS title?
