Mandalore Posted August 20, 2017 Posted August 20, 2017 Don't usually bother with special editions, this one looks pretty awesome though.

Happenstance Posted November 17, 2017 Posted November 17, 2017 I need to try and get a new PS3 soon so I can carry on my playthrough of the whole series. I can play 2 on PS2 if I cant be bothered to wait for Kiwami 2 and have 4 & 5 digitally so those can be played on my PS3 with the broken blu ray drive but I still have no way to play 3
Mandalore Posted February 2, 2018 Posted February 2, 2018 The game has been delayed, but there will be a demo. If the demo is as action packed as the start on Yakuza 0, it could do wonders for sales. 1
Happenstance Posted February 2, 2018 Posted February 2, 2018 That’s a shame that it got delayed but I should probably use that time to carry on playing the others. I only got about an hour into 3 before getting distracted by a newer game.
RedShell Posted February 28, 2018 Author Posted February 28, 2018 The demo went live yesterday, all 36GB of it! It is in actual fact the entire game data just with restrictions in place to limit where/what you can do, although in America SEGA somehow managed to severely fuck up and released the full game with no restrictions at all! It has apparently been pulled now, but looks like there's quite a few people enjoying the complete game already. Which begs the question, if the game is indeed complete, what's with this extra delay until April? Anyway, I spent an hour or so with the demo last night and while I'm definitely enjoying it, the general performance of the game is disappointing. Not only does it run at a much slower frame rate than Zero and Kiwami, there's some nasty stutter going on at times, plus horrendous screen tearing too. Not sure if it's a much better situation on the Pro, but I believe the only difference is a resolution bump to 1080p. The combat is also going to take some getting used to as despite using more or less the same control setup/inputs it feels very different in Yakuza 6, it's like they've added a load of additional physics to everything which makes it really weird after having spent so much time playing the previous games. Really hope it clicks though, as some of the new aspects (like fighting inside convenience stores) are fantastic! BTW, anyone that has played Zero and Kiwami be sure to check out New Serena in order to receive a couple of additional items for having save data from the previous games. 1
Happenstance Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 April seems like a very suspect month. Perhaps they wanted it in their next fiscal year?

Happenstance Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 No I hadn’t got around to getting it before it was taken down.

Was the European version also taken down? Don’t imagine it was, seeing as it’s actually just the demo as intended. What I downloaded is at least.

Happenstance Posted April 10, 2018 Posted April 10, 2018 Well Game Collection just took the money for Yakuza 6. Hoping they manage to get it to me this week so I can play it over the weekend before the release next Tuesday. 1

RedShell Posted April 12, 2018 Author Posted April 12, 2018 Cannot wait to get playing this next week! While I'm still somewhat disappointed by the performance of the game from the demo, I'm pretty sure it's still going to be an incredibly enjoyable experience overall. Just a shame it's likely to get completely lost among God of War though, not sure what SEGA were thinking with that "delay"... 1

I was tempted (many, many times ) but decided against it in the end as I'm trying to cut down on collecting stuff these days.

I had the premium edition preordered but I cancelled it a few months ago and just got the regular version. 1

Time travel, man. 2 minutes ago, Happenstance said: I expect that would have been the Japanese demo Yep. It was also slightly different content-wise to the version that got released recently, but just as huge in terms of file size unfortunately.
martinist Posted April 14, 2018 Posted April 14, 2018 In my drunken stupor last night I wake up to an e-mail from Amazon saying I bought a £50 bottle of Yamazaki reserve whisky I'm not canceling it. Seems like I have a use for those glasses now lol 4
Happenstance Posted April 16, 2018 Posted April 16, 2018 I didnt end up getting my copy early but it has at least been dispatched today so should be playing it tomorrow!
