    PC version would be nice considering PC has helped Sega massively in the last few years.

    A couple of games out next week that I want, a new tales game and the digimon game but was thinking of picking this up instead.

    Amazon doesn't have a list price for this!
    Is it digital only?

    Been playing the series for a long while and I was very excited for this one. Don't need reviews to tell me it's worth interest... least of all from "sim city can't work offline" polygon. But I don't have a PS4 so I might be skipping it unless they make a PC version down the line. I've always wanted Yakuza's amazing mini-japan playgrounds on my main machine.

    You're not likely to get a PC version, it wouldnt be coming out in english at all if Sony hadn't stepped in to help get it localized

    I'll pick this up in a few months once it drops a bit in price.

    Just finished Yakuza 4 and currently downloading Yakuza 5.
    Both must have been PS+ games at some stage, don't remember buying them.

    It sold 500k copies in Asia, is that not a bit crap?

    The more vids I see of this on YouTube, the more tempted I am to get it. Pity it doesn't have a demo as I'd like to get a feel of how it plays.

    Not on any PAL store for preorder or pre-load, very strange altogether. Argos UK will be selling it for 40 pounds so might be cheap enough in the Irish stores next week.

    Thing that irks me about the series is I'm sick to death of all the cutscenes. It's borderline overkill.
    I know it's part of it's charm but i just couldn't be arsed anymore.
    Been enjoying Yakuza 5 but I just spend half the time pressing the start button to get through them

    Gamestop have it, €65 though. It's on the PS store for €60.

    I've never played this series. Is it another GTA clone?

    There's no stock in the country!

    The CA app still searches all stores, and not a single one has a unit to sell.

    Unless it all sold out :)

    It's closer to Shenmue than GTA. It's open world, but there's no driving or shooting. The combat is hand-to-hand focused with some melee weapons thrown in. Side events include karaoke, hostess bars, and Sega arcade games. The series is worth a look if you like Japanese culture.

    I checked the stock in london argos as well and it says due in between 3-5 days. Gamestop didn't have any copies either, I wonder if there was just a delay with physical copies in the country? Anyone seen a copy around?

    Got it for E43 on Amazon, will not get a chance to play it till next week though, glad it is being well received but it is shame more people do not play the series as there is not a bad game in the main cannon.

    It's listed as in stock on Gamestops website (Dublin CC which I realise you might not be near). I'm sure you can get delivered if you wanted.

    Ah my plan is to clear Resi 7 and trade in for this so I could do with a few days delay anyway, just hope it comes in eventually :)

    Maybe eBay is the best bet at this stage.

    Very few copies starting to pop up in Argos and some allow you to order for collection. Still can't find the game on the website but the link from check argos finds it ok.

    I got it yesterday. Really enjoying it so far. It's the first one I've played so can't compare it to others in the series. Quite a lot of watching dialogue and cut scenes but plays out like a movie. Graphics are impressive too.
