According to another thread they don't seem to have entirely ceased Judgment advertising, so who knows, it seems like it might still come out. I really wanna play it, but Sega seems to at the very least want to replace the actor (which seems ludicrous, as well as ludicrously expensive).

They did replace the actor that played Tanimura in Yakuza 4 for the remaster for similar (though more likely false and he was set up by some "friends") reasons, though this was of course long after the game originally came out. So it really would be pretty expensive to have to pull it and do a replacement on short notice plus it delaying it past when all the advertising was happening.

Between the celebrity stars and the marketing push and how people really were getting excited for it it seems crazy to just kill the game and throw all of the logistics and work involved in that entirely out though, I'm sure it will eventually come out.

As far as I can tell a big part of the series appeal has always been the juxtaposition of a super-serious and melodramatic main plot with completely wackadoo sidequests.

An enormous number of the sidequests involve you doing something extremely awkward, like stealthily buying a porno mag for a kid, while the main character remains stoic and (debatably) insightful throughout.

It's a loving trip.

I'm just not nailing the wire work and can't get the revs right. I watched a Nero combo YouTube that was very informative so I'm looking forward to firing the game up again tomorrow. I'm a style machine with Dante and having too much poo poo at my command is now a huge bonus, Nero just hasn't clicked in. Doesn't help that I didn't understand the breakers for the first 6 missions and never used them because I thought they'd break on use :suicide:

Also yeah all over the button switch. I tried moving the gun but I don't like having my attacks off the face buttons and don't feel inconvenienced using square to shoot.

Also love the enemies the game throws at you as soon as you hit SoS. Real poo poo.

found the trick with the revs is to just spam it while you hack, the 3rd level of that is good for a crowd cleaner. i actually unlocked one of his later moves, i forget the name, but its a move while in mid-air he charges forward and down to a target and its hosed up my combos alot, its weird.

i didnt find out the breakers had special charge moves until late game lol.

I can't even imagine how much that would cost Sony. Also, I can't imagine how many sales Take 2 would lose not having Rockstar games on other platforms, not to mention the sports stuff.

She leaned forward. "We are going to assassinate the bad men of Hollywood."


This seems about as likely as the equally plausible but persistent rumor that Microsoft would buy CDPR. Doesn't make sense when Take Two's got their own distribution and more money than God.

Straight up if Rockstar games are exclusive to a console, I will be buying that console. It would be a smart business decision but I don’t see it happening or at least happening in that way.
