Sounds like we're getting some new info July 10th:
edit: oh and I see this info was already posted above, nevermind.

So, someone on Reddit has offered a way better translation:
Basically, they mention Kenzan because the director has mentioned that maybe they will do a remake in the future. Personally, I'd be happy with just a remaster, not a remake (its already a great game, just gimme reduced load times for battles and 60FPS/1080p and I'm good) but apparently that wouldn't be good enough... Oh, and apparently they'd want to release it worldwide as well.
I get by story wise. I miss some of the finer points though, wwhich is why Im looking forward to Judgment tomorrow as it'll help clear up a few inconsistencies here and there in the plot.Something I been meaning to ask, shadowman16 do you speak Japanese or when you import these is it it for gameplay only and you just muddle through?
An Ishin Kiwami would be a complete waste of resources. Just translate the existing game and your set. Its already a good looking game that runs at 60FPS and has plenty of content. There's really no need to waste money and time remaking the game.
You can make either drone parts or extracts using them..At Judgment chapter 2, what do we do with all the items from the wasteland?
No. One time only deal.Do Yakuza 6's trouble missions where you need to calm Haruto extend past chapter 3? The motion controls were so unresponsive that I'm curious if there's a better way I should be holding my Dualshock.
Actor/ Comedian Hiroyuki Miyasako who was in Yakuza 6 has been suspended for taking money from organized crime-
Boxcelious rocks though ;) I really do enjoy both versions of the game in 3-5. Though 5 really did up its game in that regard, as it added stuff like VF2 and Taiko, and then of course 0 and 6 happened and got even better!Wasn't a big fan of that mini game when I played Yakuza 5 on the PS3 unfortuantely. I mean it was fun with Kiryu and Saejima, but having to repeat it with all characters got old really quick sadly. Neat idea though!
It's kinda rad to see how far we've come from having just an average shmup mini game inside Club Sega to full-fledged mini games, arcade emulations etc.
Actor/ Comedian Hiroyuki Miyasako who was in Yakuza 6 has been suspended for taking money from organized crime-
"In his public apology, Miyasako, who often appears on TV shows, said, "I deeply regret accepting the money, even if it was indirectly."
Broadcasters with variety programs featuring the suspended comedians have decided to either cut out scenes where they appear, substitute alternative episodes or put their shows on hiatus.
Public broadcaster NHK has refrained from airing programs with the comedians since a weekly magazine reported the issue earlier this month."
No one can answer this question for you. For my money, 3's finale from a gameplay standpoint is better than 0s. Likewise so did Ishin. And in terms of final boss battles, 5 still has pretty much the best aside from Ishin in terms of pure gameplay (not character choice though, that's a different discussion entirely). Judgments end is pretty damn solid as well.Just cleared Kiwami 2. While I did enjoy the finale (better than Kiwami 1) it wasn't as hype as the end of 0. Will this be a consistent thing going forward?
But that's just my opinion on the matter. Your millage will vary depending on how much you like each games story and characters. You may hate Yakuza 3 for example, its definitely a polarising game.
I think 3 works, though performance is spotty at best. 4 and 5 I've no clue about. I think Kenzan runs as well, and the translation for that is coming along well. Might take a few more years, but eventually PS3 emulation is gonna be fantastic.Wow, that translation looks clean, especially in emulator.
How do 3/4/5 handle on it? I kinda don't wanna pull out my old PS3 for the games, so I'm waiting for potential localization announcements (and maybe a PC release seeing as they're probably doing the series in numerical order there, skipping 6 there for now).
The game definitely feels like it has a structure similar to a TV show, which is one of the (many) reasons I enjoyed it so much. Both PSP games did this as well, and again the story was excellent partly because of this structure.Finally made it to chapter 2 in Judgment. The game is so good. Love how chapter 1 ended. It's pretty much the perfect set-up for the rest of the game's story. Kinda like the end of a pilot episode in a TV show (I think that's what they were aiming for). It took me about 6 hours to reach chapter 2, but that was because I did a lot of minigames, explored Kamurocho in detail etc. And chapter 2 pretty much starts with an explosion of new side content (drone racing is so much fun!). Very much looking forward to the rest of the game.
Did you ask him about the remasters?For those of you who speak French and/or Japanese, here is my Toshihiro Nagoshi interview. I tried to cover as much topics as I could (I wish I had more time) and I believe it's an interesting watch/read: http://www.gameblog.fr/interview_1209_yakuza-ps5-xbox-streaming-binary-domain-on-parle-de-tout-ave
Dude, fantastic interview with some awesome questions there. The Kamurocho question especially was a great read, I always wondered why they adopted a made up version of it. Also, that whole "scary people" answer is lol worthy. I know they've mentioned that side stories were inspirations from stuff they encountered while drinking... I mean researching so I wouldn't be surprised if Yakuza have covertly approached Nagoshi before either.For those of you who speak French and/or Japanese, here is my Toshihiro Nagoshi interview.

Some cool answers about potential Xbox ports in the future as well, though as I expected especially in Japan it looks like the games will remain Playstation games for the time being.
Oh, and the one thing that excites me most is Nagoshi's answer about AI and PS5. I want smarter AI for harder modes, if he can make that happen with new consoles I'll be really happy.
I asked Sato-san about Binary Domain last year and Nagoshi-san this year. I think I can stop bugging them about it now :-(.Awesome interview. I always wondered about the name change for Kamurocho. Sad to hear that Japanese media has entirely forgotten about Binary Domain, though.
