Currently on my channel: 龍が如く6 Inochi no Uta / Yakuza 6 playthrough

Yes, I am playing the Japanese retail version on my channel. I'll leave a link to the videos here.

This first video consists of some trial version gameplay. At this point, I'm already some 40 minutes into the story, which mostly a recap of events of Yakuza 5; Kiryuu getting injured and jailed while Haruka quits the idol industry and returns to the Okinawa orphanage.

This second video of the series starts off where the trial version ended. Kiryuu Kazuma is now in Kamurocho looking clues for the whereabouts of both Akiyama and Haruka.

Taking some time getting to know next gen Kamurocho while looking for clues. Things have changed.

There happens to be a scuffle between Chinese mafia and Tojo Clan. Obviously Kiryuu is pulled in the middle of this conflict.

Kiryuu saves a man from the Chinese gangsters and in turn gets a lead of Akiyama's whereabouts.

I had an unfortunate thing happen to me and my PS4 happened to uninstall the whole 36 gb file. No worries however, I continue this series shortly but so far these 5 videos will do.

PS Plus August 2016 montly gem: Yakuza 5

August monthly game for PS3 supreme is Yakuza 5. This action adventure of the Japanese underworld is uniquely appealing and astounding. The story continues somewhat where Yakuza 4 ended as a crisis between leading crime families is unraveling. A known set of characters with some new surprising additions will encounter more surprises and coincidences than anybody could envision.

The story starts with Kazuma Kiryu in a sleepy town of Fukuoka where this brawler tries his best to leave his former life behind only to find his past thrown against his path once again. 

Yakuza 5 is a story-driven street fighting game in a open world urban environment with several enticing mini games to boot. The splendor of Japanese cities, fantastic story and robust action scenes are to be mentioned. The only major issues with the game are the repetitive fighting, mission and achievement system, some story pacing elements and pointless mini-games. It is worthwhile to mention that this game requires a lot space of PS3 HDD.

If not interested in playing this game yet, remember to add this title to your purchases for later enjoyment.
