What's the OST that starts at 25:15? Can't find it for the life of me. I need your help guys.
Yakuza thread, I guess
Yakuza
God I loved yakuza 0 so much, Kiwami just didnt do it for me
Which ones are the better ps3 titles, should i just 345 or can i skip any
Same question. I've only played 0 and 1. Both were amazing. Need to play 2 though
I liked 4 because of the multiple characters thing but can see why it turned people off when the story got really, really stupid.
3 felt like it was just going through the motions and I didn't finish 5 so it might have picked up by the end but it just didn't grab me.
To expand on this a little more, I liked the idea of other protagonists since Kiryu keeps wanting out and getting dragged back in for contrived reasons. Akiyama, the friendly neighborhood loanshark, Tanemura, the bent cop looking out for himself and Chinese immigrants, and Taiga, the man locked away for decades that has no place in the modern world, all have hooks that could make for some decent stories.
Taiga was used in 5 but in the same kind of excuse way as Kiryu. I get it, Kiryu's a big draw for these games and I do like him.
Yeah i've read how shitty the stories were, dunno if I should just skip or slog through em with easy difficulty. I love the games but just recently finished 0 and kinda burnt out since I jumped into kiwami instantly
>Kiwami just didnt do it for me
Same but that’s because the original game was kind of shit
>the original game was kind of shit
How can you say that? It was the shit. I liked it more than GTA 3. It's one of the best PS2 games.
the track at 25:15 doesn't exist anywhere on the internet or OST as far as I can tell. I'm not even certain it's on the disc since it's a cutscene only track. There's a couple other tracks like this too, such as the one with kiryu and nishiki in the forest. I've been looking for these tracks ever since I finished the game and I'm still no closer to finding them.
not him, but i dislike it because of all the mundane backtracking, it know its a ps2 game coated with better graphics but that shit was annoying
4 has a video The Story So Far mode that recaps 3 you could probably find ripped onto youtube. 3 also suffers from being the first one on the PS3 and they were finding their legs.

That was Kenzan, which definitely was the devs figuring out how to get the game to work on the new console.

The best I could find. Why though? These are awesome. Why didn't they release them?
there's a lot of baffling OST release decisions this series has made over the years. The number of amazing tracks they leave unreleased each year is staggering. Hell, in 0 alone nearly all the substory music isn't officially released, along with any of the tracks playing in stores, or random BGM that plays around towns.

for example, this track is fucking amazing, but it was never released in yakuza 2's OST
does anyone know what track plays in 0 while Majima's in Mad Dog style
oh shit, thanks
I actually like the western credits music more than the original.
The opening is worse than Bubble though.
Do you guys think they purposely made Majima's section more dramatic to play, and his styles superior, as a major draw point for this game?
I can't understand shit to the business mode in yakuza 0, but I loved kiwami, 0, 3 and 4 (this last one was kind of boring with the last cop character)
I can never unsee "Leisure Suit Kiryu".
Is that kiryus minigame? that was so boring
majimes so terrific, can't even get past the first boss thing with kiryus
>Mash X to win
>can't get past boss
>Wasting money
Only mash when you have to
I thought Kiryu had better substories and more "hot-blooded" moments in the story. All the stuff with Nishiki and Tachibana was pretty memorable all in all I thought.
I think Cabaret Club > Real Estate and that Majima had better boss fights but that's all, and that's coming from someone who was more interested in the Majima side and doesn't mind that they're giving him all this backstory (I know a lot of people here don't like that, personally I prefer the Majima we have here and in 4, and I don't get the appeal of wacky memester Majima from 1/2/3/Kiwami 1 or why he was voted so high in that character poll for Ishin)
That cabaret club grind was the most fun i've had grinding in a video game for a while it was so satisfying
>worried about money
You can literally gain it all back from beating up goons in maybe two fights. Not even that, if you max out everything in the 2 hours it takes for the minigame, you'll be able to make nearly two billion ¥ every seven minutes from the real estate.
Majima's business minigame is more interactive, but the only one that you can legitimately lose in.
Yeah, it's involved enough to not be boring, not too long, and you have built-in sub-stories with the Platinum Hostesses too. They did a pretty good job of it, looks like Hokuto Ga Gotoku might have something similar to it which I'm looking forward to, these devs are mad men.
It's still wasting money. Japan is headed for the recession, user. You should save up.
Stop meme posting at me, idiot. Do you think I come into these threads to act like a child?
Sweet, it was really fun, from the music to figuring out the hand gestures(dunno if those were mentioned, but i forgot them and had to figure them out myself) everything was so satisfying
especially when a rich guy came in and asked for Ai, give me all that money old man, and extend your stay time!
Are these games any good, or are they like sleeping dogs? Because I've always wanted to play them but I think theyre all gaystation exclusive
You are acting like an autistic fuck desu, not exactly a step up.
Yakuza 0 is still my GOTY. Really wish they'd release background songs with the OST.
I heard they cut tons of shit/ just left it out from Kiwami 2 because they only did things with assets they could reuse from 6. Kinda sad
There's a whole playlist of the unreleased soundtracks from the game. Took me a while just to find this one

Well holy shit user. Thanks!
