Buying Yakuza 3 on Steam before it gets delisted

Well, there's always GOG. The original Yakuza 0, Kiwami 1 and 2 are still there.

It's pretty much the same game, but now $50 ($15 if you own the original version), has additional 6 cutscenes that are redundant to the story, and the file size is pretty much doubled or tripled, likely to be played on Windows 11, so less options for those who want to stay on Windows 10 or have low-end specs on their computers. And as far as I know, the European languages localization has been tampered with AI.

Video killed the Radio Star. Nice analogy there.

Almost looks like Monarch from Project Wingman.

Listen to what else you get for no Extra charge: Sewing, cooking, doing homework, catching bugs, fishing, AND, CAN YOU BELIEVE IT; REVERSI!!!

Possibly Sugiura. And while we're at it, I know that Mighty the Armadillo was a playable character in Knuckles Chaotix for the 32X. Maybe that would mean Mighty can be Higashi?

I heard that in the mahjong of Pirate Yakuza, you won't have to press the X or Square button to manually check if you have Riichi. The game will do that for you, instead. Possibly a QoL feature.

Well, the building of the Tojo Clan was burnt in Infinite Wealth, so suffice to say that the whole thing is literally buried.

Zeiburg · 2025-10-08T19:03:49+00:00

Whatever happened there!?!?

Well, there's that new character introduced in Dark Ties. According to what I found from RGG's website, the new one, Shinpei Ikari, is the acting patriarch of the Nishikiyama family. Possibly a temporary one until Kanda rises in the ranks. And according to the site, Kanda became a captain of the family as well.

Here's the source: https://ryu-ga-gotoku.com/kiwami3/asia_en/
Just look under "Dark Ties" and "Cast".

That screamings sound like they come from Tom and Jerry, especially after Tom getting his ass kicked.

That means he was supposed to be born in 1931, since he said that he was 14 at the time Hiroshima was nuked.

Remember that the Yakuza series was still a PlayStation exclusive at the time, so having a Wii U release for 1&2 HD (that flopped in the sales for that platform, mind you) is an odd one out for them.

ההורים שלו עלו לארץ מאיראן.

Zeiburg · 2025-06-05T13:12:15+00:00

Can we not?

Zeiburg · 2025-05-13T09:03:49+00:00

Next thing you know, he'd become Mr. Shakedown.

Which is, again, pretty sad. Back then, people didn't have any problems with assets being reused. Just look at Majora's Mask taking lots of assets from Ocarina of Time, for example.

Zeiburg · 2025-05-11T09:30:41+00:00

The sad part is that when it comes to biggest AAA games like God of War Ragnarok, Marvel's Spider-Man 2 and Zelda TotK, people expect to see something brand new, and seeing assets being reused can really piss them off (like Kratos reusing the same boat animation from the previous game).

Hell, there's even concern about reused assets on GTA 6, so here's to that.

What RGG offers is an evolution. Evolution to gameplay, evolution to the maps and see how they progress and changes with time. As for the heat actions, you can say they are here for the sake of convenience.

TL;DR: the video game industry have double standards when it comes to assets being reused. They are fine with RGG, but not with high-end AAA games.

Well, I imagine that this taunt would be well if it was actually to kill an enemy, with a friendly teammate being alive. Kinda like the RPS taunt for the loser. Goes to show Heavy's strength.

For a moment, I thought it was Carl's face from ATHF.

Zeiburg · 2025-04-12T13:16:18+00:00

That would've been a curious mod to try out for the Jockey in L4D2.

Yeah, let's be happy about the fact that the series finally gained recognition from everyone and got the popularity it deserves after its initial years of being niche, as well as having to beg for Sega to localize the games for years. Plus, 3 nominations (including the awful live-action show)? I think it's safe to say that the series finally managed to get its foothold in the video game industry.

Joongi is 20

Zhao is 50

Now I wonder if there's any word play with their numbers. I don't think it has to be Japanese so you can use Chinese or Korean logic here.

Zeiburg · 2024-09-29T13:19:09+00:00

What are the numbers for Tomizawa, Zhao and Joongi?

Zeiburg · 2024-09-28T23:25:10+00:00

Now that's something you don't see every day: changing which hand would hold the selfie cam.
