Impressive effort with a few noticeable problems holding it back. Won't astound everyone, but is worth your time and cash. How we score: The Destructoid Reviews Guide...
Abstract: For those of you introduced and hooked on SEGA's Yakuza series with the recent release of Yakuza 0, you don't have long to wait for the next entry. Yakuza Kiwami, a remake of the PS2 original, hits store shelves next week, and slides in some nice continui...
Abstract: In 2005, a legend was born on the PlayStation 2 – the legend of Kazuma Kiryu, the Dragon of Dojima, in his video game debut with Yakuza. Now, 11 years after that release, a new generation of players will be able to experience the incomparable action and d...
