Next time I’m there, I’d like to head down to Osaka, and give it a go. Having only been to Tokyo before, is Osaka as visitor-friendly? Since even with my limited grasp of Japanese, Tokyo was easy to get around. Shopping and dining didn’t pose any issues, either.

It was on a bonus disc for a later re-release, so half right/half wrong?

It’s a remake of the first game, so it’s a good spot to start out at. Kiwami came out after Yakuza 0, so there are callbacks to that. But, you could play Kiwami first without any issues, and go into 0 after.

My local GameStop has one of the SF2 machines set up near the entrance. None of us that tried it could successfully get into gameplay. We just continually got kicked back to the selection menu.

I was hoping for a comment like this and I’m not disappointed. Take your star before Ellison tries to get it from you.

Sounds reasonable to me.

Curry Zen on Decatur and Spring Mountain is my jam here in Las Vegas. The shopping center it’s in is also home to a great ramen spot (Monta Ramen, though I prefer Ramen Sora, which is east of this spot) and a Japanese-style Italian restaurant (Trattoria Nakamura-Ya).

Same thing happened with the Neo Geo Mini, too. I use an iPhone charger to power that, but still, these types of products should always come with a power adaptor.

Yeah, here’s hoping Sony knows to get a good production run going on these. But I suspect they’ll still be hard to get until after the holiday season.

“Real fans”

I only just recently realized how goofy the physics in Yakuza 6 can be. It’s probably odd to enjoy it as much I do. Just another part of a game I’m really enjoying so far.

I have to reply, mainly for this being one of the best comments I’ve seen in a long time. Good stuff.

Heck, give me a game type that just nixes all weapons. Set it up like Slappers Only and let folks chop the hell out of each other.

A buddy of mine worked for Game Crazy back around the time Tekken 4 came out for PS2 (might have been Tekken 5). He had at least one or two customers asking for ‘Tea-ken’.

Someone in QA is getting ripped a new asshole right about now.

>Is it?

Yes. Yes, it is.

Might as well prep those BioWare eulogies now. I don’t know how good Anthem will be, but somehow, EA will still view it as a failure.

Anyone I knew that used Miitomo gave up on it a long time ago. I still log in, but haven’t done much with it, since no one is around.

Still, it’s sad to see it go.

I’ve always wondered about sport titles and their giant save files, too. It’s been that way since memory cards became the norm after the PlayStation’s introduction. If I recall correctly, games like Madden could fill up an entire card back then.

Let’s not kid ourselves here. Third-party publishers aren’t using the 32GB cards that are already available to them, so 64GB ones being delayed won’t make a difference. If 32GB game cards were being used more often, the patch download for a physical release like L.A. Noire wouldn’t be as big as it is. It’s 29GB for…
