Neocrisis: Here are some new screens for Ryu ga Gotoku Of the End coming to PS3.
Joystiq: Daisuke Sato, director of Binary Domain and Yakuza 3, wouldn't say whether or not Sega had any plans to release the team's previous shooter, the very weird Yakuza: Of the End, in America and Europe.
But he offered a hypothetical that suggested that, at least, the thought has come up.
Why wouldn't they localize this? It seems to cater more to a western audience than the previous Yakuza games did, so after going to all that effort to not bother makes no sense.
except it's a fun spin offgame that only cater to yakuza fans ... wih arent numerous yet in the west .
It's hardly a good shooter , and a rather stiff and outdated zombie game with its particular brand of humor .
With what's already out there , it aain only resonate within fans of the original serie ... so i can see with they'd hesitate
.
Hopefully we would get the announcements later and released it March 2012, at least...
GameXplain: "We stay alive to fend off the unfed undead in the import version of Yakuza of the End during this latest installment of Game & Watch."
hahaha game is looking so much fun. i hope sega keeps their track record going and releases this in the west.
I heard this was the last Yakuza game on the PS3, then the devs will move on to Sega's next console.
..like I said, I heard this on the Internetz

Come on Sega, bring this game over! Might as well give us Kenzen! too while you're at it.
yah i think thats why i became such a huge fan of the yakuza series. it was about as close as ill ever get to playing shenmue 3. there are a lot of similarities but also a lot of differences. both are some of my favorite games though.
it was the ps2 years right....hopefully they get a yakuza hd upgrade for the whole series....doubt it though.

yah there are 2 on ps2 (yakuza and yakuza 2) then 3 and 4 are on the ps3. plus the various spin offs that never made it to the west. thats why im hoping yakuza of the end makes it to us, but with the other releases im pretty confident they will. i was one hoping for an hd release as well though, with trophy support. would be pretty sweet.
The latest magazine leaks in Japan, including new details about The Third Birthday, Dissidia Duodecim Final Fantasy, Microsoft's TGS Press Conference and more.
Ya, it would look awesome on the PS3. Still, this is good news. Hope its officially revealed at TGS this year. Cant wait! (hoping for a PSN release as well)
NA release please!!!
