Seriously, seems that Nagoshi was serious when he said he could make a Yakuza zombie game. The latest screens in the newst Famitsu is filled with the undead.
Is this SEGA’s answer to Dead Rising? You know how we Westerners love our zombies. Should be a interesting TGS, Nagoshi posing with zombie hookers.
[UPDATE: More scans, including some gun action gameplay screens!]

Valkyria 3 for psp? Yakuza with zombies? What looked like a great TGS line up is starting to sound like a real heartbreaker. PSO2 better be some incredible shit to behold.
Valkyria 3 for the PSP is a fucking retarded choice. WTF with Sega, 1 step forward 2 steps back all the fucking time.
A Yakuza spin off with Zombies however is totally fine with me and I'm very interested to see more.
Phantasy Star Online 2 and Virtua Fighter 5 HAD BETTER be there to make up for them pissing away a good VC3.
Glad to see that fans of Yakuza aren't calling this the game that "jumped the shark"… yet.
I'll call it.
SEGA is jumping the shark while wearing a big silly hat.
How is this not jumping the shark? This is akin to them giving sonic the hedgehog a handgun.
I have to agree, this might end up being the lowest rated Yakuza yet. But who knows, maybe the game is a brilliant spin off.
I think it sounds great. Nagoshi said he intended to make a game that could have spinoffs anywhere, even in space. Bring on Of the End!!!
Yakuza in space would have been so much more interesting. Now I really want that game instead. =(
Now I'm definitely buying Yakuza of The End
So now we know all about SEGA's TGS… we can skip the show now, there won't be anymore news.
This is so retardly stupid and Nagoshi has clearly lost his sanity. Reminds me of a Mega Drive SEGA game!
Day One!
This was totally out of left field, but this has potential to be the bee's knees.
Yakuza VS. Zombies
HEAVEN OR HELL
DUEL ONE
LET'S ROCK
If it's a spin off, I don't mind.
I love it and hate it at the same time.
I dunno, people freaked out when Call of Duty got zombies. As long as this is a spinoff and not part of the main series, I really do not mind. Very strange direction to go for sure, but well… The people who bitched about the series not trying new stuff got the biggest surprise, and then some.
Fuck yeah. Zombies go well with everything. I love spinoffs when they are done well. The more bizzarre, the awesomer.
Hey guys seems that the game will be released in 2012 with a new engine, so maybe OF THE END will not be a spin-off or otherwise next year we will not see a RYU-GA-GOTOKU game(yakuza 4 excluding).
^^
is this an information from the magazine ??
No I read the info in a comment by a user of Andriasang who says he saw it on a Famitsu scan.
