For what it is worth I just woke up and saw that this all went down, so I just put in my two cents that no way should the official thing should be changed. Let's see what happens.

This has been going on for ages though Fred, surprised you've just noticed :p I guess it was allowed in principle since members can see a clear difference between a pinned topic and one that just has tags. Whatever is decided it would be nice if an alternative solution was allowed for the topics in the GH, even if its just saying "Official topic of Game X", without the brackets.

Well, I've noticed those tags but I had assumed that staffers were adding the tags. This one stood out as a member title from the "of only Audioboxer & Lingwo are playing" text being in a title. So I then checked the history and there was no evidence of a moderator editing the title. Without the text I would have continued to assume that staffers were renaming the threads. I now see that this thread was hardly the first of its kind.

The problem now is that we have different rules for inside and outside of GH but I suppose we'll have to find a way to live with that.

[Thread Title Un-Edited] (or re-edited?)

Gamers' Hangout is unique. :)

Actually some threads in the media section use [Official] as well, but with the members that frequent this area, yeah, it is. :laugh:

Seeing as we have some more popularity on the go :rofl: I've returned to a more mature title.

I added this to the forum rules (at the top of Gamers' Hangout):

Members may create [Official] game topics under the following conditions: 1) No previous Official topic may exist, 2) An effort is made to include details of the game including features, downloadable content, screen grabs, box art and/or trailers of the game. This feature is unique to Gamers' Hangout.

nice, i love that... im just betting that the good outcome from that is nowhere near as much fun

You escape, but then she jumps you again later on in the game and you have to escape again.

I have no idea if you can be violated the second time also, or if indeed you can be violated twice :laugh:

What was the sutff that was cut in the EU version or was it both the USA/EU version? I heard it was a bunch of fun stuff!

Both, I'll find a list to the cut content for you.

Start of chapter 11 :| Never wanted to smash the teeth out of the enemy in a game this much before!

I'm so tired, but things are really kicking off story wise.

I'll put it in spoiler tags just incase some people don't want to know

You get chased a few times throughout the game and then i think it is the third time, you get chased a lot in quick succession and then you find out she has i think 3 other brothers and they're all trying to break you two up so she can get back with her ex, who turns out to be a guy who was once a woman.

I'm still on chapter 10, just finished off the Hitman missions (well as far as it'll let me). Now i think i am going to continue the story as i can't find any more side missions.

Haven't come across that yet. I just blasted off to chapter 12 last night, but I have some time now to tie up some side missions before completing. However there will be some I won't be able to do until the Adventure mode or whatever it's called again you get to tidy up missed quests in once you've completed.

I'm only at about 60 completed out of 99.

Just finished the game tonight. I kind of expected a lot of the things to happen at the end but it was still brilliant. Game of 2010 for me so far.

Is it just me or is the voice acting in this game brilliant? Especially at a certain bit in chapter 11 ;)

You get a lot of text dialogue in the game but when you get a voiced cut scene, the voice acting is always top notch.

Game is now available for £22.95 at Zavvi using APRIL2 code!

http://www.zavvi.com...n/10071805.html

That is a very good price so lets hopefully more people buy it! (I may do but I really can't buy any at the moment due to work!)

Great price, I paid £29 at launch.

I'm on Chapter 12, been doing lots of sidemissions as this is my last chance to before going to the adventure mode. Trying to tie up as much as I can which means key hunting in Tokyo (I have all the keys from the resort).

Yeah the Japanese voice acting is great, it would be awesome to have everything voice acted but probably wouldn't fit the budget of this game due to the amount of text. English dub would suck, while they went all out for Yakuza 1 and got good actors for the English, there is no way they'd do that again after it tanked - Would probably be people off the street for Yakuza 2/3 if done in English :p

Payday on the 15th, if it's still that price I will be picking it up. Playing my way through WKC and have to say I'm now pleasantly surprised that it's kept my attention more than FF13 did and currently my game of choice out of the two.

I'm tempted to buy this game now :laugh:

Do you need to have played the previous games for storyline?

There's two recap videos of Yakuza 1/2 on the disc to help newcomers. They do unfortunately play out in the PS2s native res, so they're in a smaller box :/ Looks like they were quick additions to the western version as I doubt they'd be needed on the Japanese version.

As for the game, I dunno if you'll like it man, Action RPG influenced heavily by Japanese culture. I love the series, but hey, everyone knows what my gaming taste is like, <3 Demons Souls :rofl:

Well I'll watch/read some reviews to get a better idea on the gameplay and then decide. I don't mind watching the recap videos.

Fable is an Action-RPG & I love that, so there's always a chance..
