Yakuza 3 US Release Date Announced: Never

Examiner: "Earlier this evening, I was talking with a friend who works at Sega and we did some catching up and had a bit of small talk. Before our conversation ended, though, I asked him about the current status of Yakuza 3 coming stateside. He gave me a blunt answer."

Cmon mods do something about the garbage stories.
Ban these no name blogs and fake news sites.
Ban The examiner, HHG, and thegameracess. They provide nothing.

or maybe instead just ignore submissions to those websites since other members/browsers might actually like them? Although I agree, no one is forcing anyone to pay attention to "these" websites.

He listed his friend. Friend that works at sega? And can't say the name? sure. Be it false or true, its like the case that Yakuza 3 will never hit the states I mean, did Yakuza 2 REALLY sell only 40k here? If so, ofc Sega won't spend time and money bringing it over.

This is in fact great news!! Examiner doesn't know what the heck they are doing and everytime they say something it isn't right. So we have to assume that it will be the same with this case.

What this REALLY means that yakuza 3 WILL come to the us but later, just like 1 and 2 on the playstation 2.

"Earlier this evening, I was talking with a friend who works at Sega and we did some catching up and had a bit of small talk."

This coming from the same guy who made a blatant fake article today about Uncharted 2 having a mandatory install.

Did the same guy told you about the Epic ps3 exclusive, Matt? Cause that ended up as a lie as well.

on n4g people approve anything!

Im sure i can post a news about my dog who told me the spec of the ps4 and the xbox720 and it will be approved!

When you say hiphoplamer is approved for every of his flamebait news and false rumor... It just tell you how low the quality of the n4g news are.

But dont get me wrong, i really love n4g for all the other serious news :)

I think youll have to start studying NOW and youll be done right around the time when Yakuza 10 gets released. Nihongo isnt as easy as just picking up a reference book from your local Barnes and Noble store. You have to learn Hiragana,Katakana,Kanji and well Romanji(Optional). But anyways good luck. Ohh and i HOPE SO THIS IS ALL BS! Cause i want to play both previously released Ryu Ga Gotoku games.
