Jason from psnation.com asks Yakuza fans to participate in a new letter-writing campaign to Sega.
Every single Yakuza game has over-the-top action and high-octane fights, and these are our picks for the most badass moments from the Yakuza games.
Carve your burning fist through this list featuring the best beat'em ups you can experience on the PlayStation 3.
With RGG in the mainstream spotlight, about to complete their first simultaneous worldwide release, let's take a look back and rank the Yakuza games.
I just could not get into like a dragon I love Yakuza series but when they went with turn based combat it just was not for me. I hope future entries go back to its original roots or at least every now and then have a game where is real Time brawler combat
We do have judgement so at least there are other similar games being made by same developers
I’m sorry but no way is like a dragon better than Yakuza 0, 4,5, or 6. It’s different with a lighter hearted tone a lot of times. Plenty of slapstick and jokes. It literally feels like a DLC compared to the main Yakuza games. Unless you simply don’t like action games maybe… but going through the underground arenas, fighting the mini bosses randomly on the streets on different games for money or exp (like the guy in the gold suit for example). Not to mention the mini games, which Like a dragon has some too, but not as good as most other Yakuzas. Maybe it’s because I’ve been playing Yakuza from the beginning. It’s like the metal gear rpg/card collector that was on PSP or Vita. It was a cool game and a lot of fun, but it wasn’t a METAL GEAR. It was fun for what it was. I don’t believe this person actually played through all the Yakuzas. Probably gamepassed like a dragon and dabbled in the others to get an idea.
There are a few I haven't played so I am replaying and playing through them now on GP.
I did like Like a Dragon, it kept the feel of the games, but I got bored of the combat about halfway in. It was the easiest RPG I've ever played.
If I remember correctly - Eri, lower defence move for all. Ichiban - Mega bat. Every fight over in seconds.
I'm currently playing Yakuza 0 and so far it's the best game I played this year.
.
I'm all in for localizations of Yakuza 5, Ishin, and the HD Collections.
It's unfortunate that Adam Boyes & Gio Corsi's Third Party Relations for bringing up MOST WANTED games to PlayStation console didn't realized (yet)...
I mean, Yakuza series and a Shenmue came as one of the most wanted games to localized/come from #buildingthelist Twitter poll and yet, a Grim Fandango remaster announced before it...?
Did Adam & Gio had talked to SEGA & Nagoshi while they travel to Japan awhile back?

Pisses me off so much that we haven't got Yakuza 5 yet. I loved 1-4 so much. Hell I even bought dead souls to support sega not because I wanted that game .
As much as I loved Yakuza 3 and 4, I'd rather see a localized version of Yakuza Ishin. I'm not saying that I wouldn't buy Yakuza 5 if it ever came out in the west, as I totally would! The way I see it, Ishin is the closest thing we have to an Assassin's Creed set in feudal Japan. That is, ofcourse, if you take away the parkour and add tons of crazy mini games that'll make any western dweller scratch his nuts while tilting his head to the side like a dog trying to understand his master.
Could they possibly lose more money by localizing these games, than if they don't? I don't know how expensive a process like that is, but surely, it can't be THAT costy? They did it with Yakuza 3, 4 and Dead Souls, so stopping there would be a crime!
For how long fans have to put with these requests, Y5 will flop and then Y6 will be released in Japan, looking as good as before, rinse repeat the begging and false hopes.
As far as i remember, i already signed two-three petition (one from Opt. Rainfall cmiiw) to bring Y5 (and Valkyria Chronicles III) to the west. But until this day, there's no sign that Sega listening to the fans request :/ . So...i dunno if i want to do this again...
