What’s worse is that they’ve designed it in a way where this mini-game happens after either a string of continuous fights or a difficult boss fight. While this has been considerably improved with Yakuza 4 and completely perfected in Judgment, it all started with Yakuza 3. This difficulty spikes extend to the much unplayable chase sequences. The boss fights against Rikiya and Tamashiro feel like final boss fights as they pull off combo strings at max damage while you struggle to chip away at their life bar with your slow and basic combos. Fighting is awkward and it doesn’t help that there are massive difficulty spikes especially during the early areas of the game. That being said, while it’s serviceable, it’s not good. The combat is still in the process of evolving from the PS2 combat to the now improved final version of the game. My memory of playing that game has been limited and while many of the good memories remained, much of the forgotten bad memories have been relived with this remastered version.
While “cultural differences” have been cited in its localization process as to why it’s edited, what I enjoyed years down the line with Yakuza Kiwami and Yakuza 0 have been omitted in Yakuza 3. When it released stateside on the PS3 in 2009, most of the content has been heavily edited and most of the Okinawa sandbox have been removed. Out of all the Yakuza titles, Yakuza 3 is the one that’s been unfairly left behind due to its awkward position. Okay I really wanna eat in this hot dog joint (Rips shirt off) Yakuza 3 – Best kept a memory That way, if you’re thinking of purchasing each game separately, you have a guide.
Performance-wise, nothing much has changed save for reduction in frame rate dips thanks to the new hardware.Įach game is unique in their own way, so I will go into detail with each game and give each game a separate rating before giving a final verdict on the whole collection. Graphics are given the same treatment as any backwards compatible game, but they’re definitely better than the PS4. Since these games haven’t been optimized for the Series X, expect the load times to be just a little better than Xbox One or the PS4, but only by about five to ten seconds. Did these remastered titles age well enough to garner another play through? We’ll see with each individual title on the list. However, just like a childhood crush that you haven’t seen for years suddenly shows up on your social media outlet and you noticed that they didn’t really age so well. In my case, I spent that time revisiting The Yakuza Remastered Collection. Valentine’s Day is coming and surely it’s the time to spend with someone that you love.
