Let’s all congratulate Eric on being soon-to-be unemployed. And congratulate Brian on overcoming the first step in overcoming his obsessive gaming habits; he has admitted that he might have a problem. If that’s news to you, then here is a heads-up: The first Yakuza game is kind of cool. In a way. If you don’t want to find out about it the hard way, Brian will tell you all about it while he shakes his cane and tracks the evolution of the claw-arm game throughout the series. It’s riveting stuff that you won’t hear anywhere else in a 10-year radius. You’re welcome.
