While Japanese players will be lucky enough to play Yakuza 4 in March, the rest of the world can at least - finally - get Yakuza 3. The game will be released on March 9 in North America and March 12 in Europe. Here are a few images to get you in the mood.

And the game switches to lame graphics in gameplay, so...
Best stylised anime hair? probably FFXIII.
Best hair that anyone meet into going down the street? probably Dead to rights: Redemption.
Although the story isn't as good as the 2nd game, this game by far destroys GTA. Glad you guys can now enjoy it.
Anyways, this is awesome, I hope they bring us Yakuza 4, and 5 and 6 to the US. Considering the piss poor advertising SEGA is doing once again, I wouldn't be surprised for a LOOOOONG wait.

Nice to see english version :D White knight chronicles english version will be better than Japanese version. So hopefully Yazuka3 will also be little improved version.
Yakuza is pretty much combat and story centric if you ask me while GTA is more like...dick-around-centric and where Yakuza has you upgrading your combat skills in a brawler like action oriented combat, GTA has a lot of cars and a machine gun that you can't aim to save your life. GTA is a big ass sandbox game and Yakuza is a brawler with a few RPG elements and a wee bit of exploration.
anyways another must buy, watches wallet and sighs...

As good as Yakuza is its nowhere near as great as shenmue.
Yup been having problems with the website crashing also, both on firefox and chrome.
Yakuza wraps jRPG conventions in a modern day presentation, with hardcore brawler combat instead of traditional, turn based encounters.
Comparisons are, and always were, bizarre. Then again, people seem keen on comparing God of War to Bayonetta too, so I suppose bizarreness doesn't stop anyone.
I think it's more about picking what game does what you admire than them actually holding up to comparison.
