Yakuza 3 Remastered

This is the type of this ♥♥♥♥ they counter to "stop killing games" "uh, actually, you can still buy and play the game, it is just very hard to find and buy."

I truly cannot strees how good and beatiful (in PS3 standards) of a game this is, I'm genuinely mad they took down this version for individual sale because god d*mn what a beauty it is.

major improvement over kiwami 1 and 2 love the okinawa setting, its very refreshing and unique after 3 games of just kamurocho/sotenbori. the tropical laid-back vibe is a perfect contrast to kiryus over the top action in the big city. the combat has a nice weight and sense of choice to it. enemies and bosses block just as much as they did in the previous two games, but now you have a single unified style that feels good to play with and isn't held back by the directionless vision and flimsiness of the dragon engine. its not perfect, bosses are mostly assenine slogs, but its fun when it works. soundtrack is full of house/techno music. finally moved away from the sonic unleashed battle themes main story is great up until the halfway point or so. it became difficult to understand what im supposed to be paying attention to, which bad guy is supposed to be tense and tough. pacing can get rough too, with silly major breakers inbetween supposedly tense and urgent scenes. overall a good time even if not the most polished or refined.
