Been playing Yakuza 3 almost non-stop, this game is just amazing.
I liked the first two a lot, but I'm enjoying this one considerably more. Maybe it's just because I'm taking my time with this one and it doesn't feel particularly 'old', but I'm just loving it.
There is so, so much content and stuff to do it's almost ridiculous, the amount of side quests and challenges is staggering. I'm particularly loving the weapons system (Kali Sticks and Nunchucks in particular) and MODDING them as well! I'm currently looking for Maple Wood to make The Patriarch's Bat (Majima's specialty apparantly). I absolutely got hooked on doing the HLA Hitmen missions too, these are just great fun. One other thing, how do I unlock more fights in the coliseum? I only have the first two so far. I was hoping I could enter a tag tournament with Rikiya, but it didn't let me.
Just a fantastic game, I can't get enough of it.
In addition I've been playing Dead Rising 2, which is brilliant fun as well, but... just not as good as Yakuza 3. It is still really good though, the weapon modding in this game is also really great fun. Making Beer Hats and Leaf-Blower/Jewelery shotguns is awesome. I love the fact that they kept the strict time limits too, which gives it all that sense of urgency and fear if you are trying to follow the main story. The best part is the AI has improved, so leading survivors isn't as much of a chore (Especially when you arm them all with firearms!). Psycho's are still almost unfair-hard though.
