Yakuza 3 is set to release stateside on March 9th. Goozernation asks will gamers buy Yakuza 3 when God of War III and Final Fantasy XIII are also available? The Yakuza series are good games, why haven't they sold well in the West? What could Sega do to make sure this game can succeed in the United States? Will gamers ever see Shenmune III?
The Opening Levels that hooked gamers from the outset.
While FFVII ranks highly, there's more to the series than one game. Here's Chit Hot's picks for the seven best Final Fantasy characters.
Cultured Vultures: These 15 unresolved video cliffhangers could be solved in the future, though if we’re really honest with ourselves, we all know there’s no chance in hell of that happening.
Never say never, I really didn't expect to ever see Space Marine 2 and 12 years later its almost here.
So there is still hope for all these games.
I've completed 5 of the games on the list, but the author forgot to include Advent Rising. It was supposed to be a trilogy, but it bombed hard, and the two sequels never got made. It was Mass Effect, a console generation before Mass Effect.
The game is buggy and unpolished, it needed a few more months of development, but the potential was there. At the end of the game, you have all these super abilities, I remember the stomp attack that created a shockwave being especially powerful.
I personally think days gone will recieve some sort of sequel at some point. I'm personally also hoping it's not the rumored multiplayer online stuff. I'd think most that enjoyed it would rather thisnto.
Sony needs to dust off Sly Cooper and Days Gone so needs a sequel two of my favorite Sony titles. Bulletstorm I love great game wish it also got a sequel. And I wish Namco would finally give Enslaved a sequel another great game.
i like the cagematches, the whole jap style of this game, the tekken fighting, so yes i see this ga,e selling 5 million first day jk, maybe 300k, then 5 million in a lifetime, this game is big in japan.
I like the series, I'm just worried that it won't sell here due to the other games coming out at the same time.
It's Sega, of course it won't. This company is usually the one that dissappoints me the most when it comes towards there corporate decisions. They just don't know how to market a game properly nor how to keep a fanbase towards there products when it comes towards new IP's.
Just keep on riding Mario's back.
They released it at a horrible time. I've never played Yakuza, but would like to. Problem is, I already have a backlog of games i want to play like Bioshock 2, FF13, God of War 3 and the Collection, Borderlands, Heavy Rain and a few others. Yakuza will unfortunately have to wait.
it def wont sell with a 60 dollar price tag.
id buy it for 40. 20 would be wonderful.
