SEGAbits says: "No joke, the game is on PSP and it seems (from screens) that it will end up looking better than Yakuza 2! Got to give it up to the team working on the game."
Yakuza's first venture to PSP has little to no chance of making it stateside, and now a sequel is in the works. Is the West missing out on anything? PlayStation LifeStlye's Heath Hindman has played through it and is ready to report in this import review of Kuryohyou: Ryu Ga Gotoku Shinshou, or "Black Panther: Yakuza New Chapter."

Sucks that this was basically a necessary evil of moving the series to PSP. Now there's a sequel announced and I wish it were on Vita so that this could be remedied and more non-story content could fit in. Aw well.
Sega should put this and the eventual part 2 in a bundle package for Vita sometime shortly after holiday 2012.
I hope it will come stateside, after playing Yakuza 3 and currently playing Yakuza 4 i gotta say i love the series.
Sega 2012! comeon

I got to give it up to Sega. They have been on a roll with the PSP. Valkyria Chronicles 2 and now a Yakuza game. I hope Sega will make a Panzer Dragoon Saga 2 & Jet Set Radio 3 game next. I hope to see many other great things from Sega for the PSP. If I am really lucky Sega might make a new Streets of Rage game.
If these are real time, it's fairly impressive.
Impressive indeed for a PSP game.

I am the only finding a striking ressemblance between the hero of the game , and the hero of Crows zero (manga and movie serie , both set in yakuza and gangs worlds ?)
