Yakuza 0. 1/24/17 Less than a month to go. Let's make a difference.

Mine was delivered early, great opening so far. I mean its a yakuza game so its going to be amazing, but its really cool having a different setting.

I was surprised that I got some bonus items for having data from a previous yakuza game when I played it on my Japanese PSN account, since I have the historical yakuza that I bought from PSN on that account (Kenzan?). Unless it picked up cloud saves from PS3 games or something? This was with a European physical version of Yakuza 0.
Kenzan came out in 2008 for the Ps3. Did you mean Ishin which came out for both ps3 and PS4?
 
I guess my question was is there any known delay on the European release? As it seems to have disappeared off the pal PSN store as well unless I'm just being blind?!

It sold out on Amazon, more likely because Sega aren't pressing a large amount of copies and underestimated supply (but I'd like to think its actually going to surprise everyone and sell well!). You could try somewhere like Shopto to see if they have stock? As for PSN, it doesn't go up there until the 24th so your not seeing it because it was never there ;)

it's out of stock in most (all?) games retailers that I usually use.

edit : shopto have got stock at £43 and Game at £45.

my £38 preorder at TGC is looking quite sensible now!

Just preordered my first Yakuza game. I've always thought the series looked awesome.
Giantbomb's quicklook and Karak from ACG's review sold me.
I'm pumped.

I've just looked and the game is sold out on Amazon, TGC, SimplyGames and Base. Shopto, Game and 365 games still have it in stock.

Ah thanks for the explanation! I wrongly expected it to be up for pre-order on PSN! I'll have to have a look around as I refuse to give a penny to Game.

Sorry if this has been answered a million times already but is this a good starting point for someone who has only played the 1st one?

Really tempted to buy.
 
Canceled my Amazon preorder in favor of Best Buy pickup because I don't want to wait for it to come. I'm pretty excited this is just about finally here.

It should be fine. I have played/platted all console released Yakuza titles.

If you get hooked, the hardest climb for you will be adjusting to legacy control and combat schemes when picking up the earlier releases. I also have a fuzzy feeling that if Zero does well, we will see the release of Y1,2 and 3 on the PS4 sooner than later.

Just an hour in and I'm hugely invested again. After feeling letdown by Y5 this is exactly what I needed.

This should be the OT title:

Yakuza 0 |OT| Yes, this is a good starting point

:p
 
Could be a minor thing but do we have a hashtag? Im always posting imgs in my social network. Sure thing Im not the only one and a hashtag always drive some awareness

Really looking forward to playing this game. GAF sold me on it for sure. I originally had no intention on pre-ordering anything for January, but thanks to all these posts, I'm importing Yakuza 0 from the UK (costs less than pre-ordering in NA). Can't wait to start! I also have Yakuza 3 and 4 so if all goes well, I'll be playing those next!

I ordered from Base, which is an entertainment retailer in the UK. Excellent prices for me since the taxes and stuff get removed (you'll see during checkout). They already shipped my copy on Friday. Stuff arrives within a week from them, too.
 
I only played the game for like 5 hours this weekend , god dam nioh beta.
Gonna try commit more time to is this week, really got into the end of chapter 1!
 
Still waiting on Amazon uk to dispatch. They've shipped some games as late as the actual release date and it arrived on the same day so No idea whether I'm going to have issues come tuesday.
 
Screw it I pre-ordered the game. I know I'm not gonna have enough time to play the game at launch but I'm not gonna risk the game running out of stock when I finally have time.

Amazon already going for 3/3 late deliveries this year

When did they turn into such complete shit? I mean the only reason I'm using it is due to the prime card and $75 gift certificate I got from it.


They have been consistently trash for video game releases and I have no idea why people would choose them over BB


Bersaria and kingdom hearts don't even have a date for delivery da fuq

Really on the fence with this game. Debating between it and Re7. One question to anyone who's played it: how are the load times?
