RYU GA GOTOKU OF THE END announcement

[Sega Uranus]

I think it sounds pretty cool. It is a spinoff, and this is the only way you [spoiler:30700nmg]could bring back Goda.[/spoiler:30700nmg]

Now I just want to see the gameplay!

Same here. Wanna see Kazuma blow some brains out. If they ever put secret characters in, let it be G.

This game BETTER have a ton of The House of the Dead references. I am talking even like secret hidden bosses and unlockable characters. If not, I am fully calling shenanigans!

[Barry the Nomad]

Question: Does anybody think that this would be renamed "Yakuza of the Dead" for Western audiences were it to come over here? I ask because Yakuza of the End sounds very awkward, almost like a mistranslation. Might as well cash in on the name and sell it as a crossover for $$$. Bonus points if the game actually has HotD references. Ooooh, a cameo by G would be badass.

[Aki-at]

It could be, I've been calling it that for the past few days because The Yakuza of the Dead just sounds better.

Also when they showed it off at the conference, it had The House of the Dead music.

What... really?

[MadeManG74]

I always called it Yakuza: The End rather than Yakuza OF the end.

Yakuza of the Dead sounds great though.

someone who knows people inside SEGA should submit the name idea of "Yakuza of the Dead" to them

The only guy i talk to is so low down in the chain that he would have little influence on such a thing...

For those who missed the second Yakuzambies trailer:

I think this looks like brilliant fun. I hope when it comes to the US they call it The Yakuza of the Dead and pretend it is a The House of the Dead crossover!

At 2:13, a protestor is holding a "Loving Dead" sign.

I am not sure if it is related to the EX game or if it is just a group of people who want us to be nice to the zombies.  :lol: Considering how open to SEGA and general comedy the series is known for, it could easily be either!

[Sharky]

I think it is just a play on 'living dead' as I think the EX game is. But not related... Although I totally want cross over shit! Would be awesome.

[MadeManG74]

Yeah, Sega games could use more cross-overs. So far the only team that's really taken advantage of cross overs is AM2 (OutRun car in Afterburner, Afterburner plane in Fighters Megamix (in fact ALL of fighters megamix), Jeffy/Sonic in Daytona USA, MJQ Jazz Bar in VF5, Ghost Squad in Afterburner Climax ETC ETC ETC).

Would be great to see G make an appearance or at least get a mention, maybe some kind of nod to Dr Curien or the Mansion as well. Hell even just having some music from HOTD1 during some fights would be nifty.
