I've owned Yakuza 4 on disc since release but people please give it a chance! The series is fucking amazing and the fact they give it away is crazy.

Sure.... if one of the PSVita or PS3 games has cross buy.

It's 2 PS3, 2 PS4, 2 PS Vita games, and if they ahppen to have cross buy, so be it.

Apotheon and Transistor are the PS4 games this month. Rogue legacy is one of the vita games that happens to be cross buy.

At one point, we had 5 PS+ games in a month all with vita compatability. It doesn't mean you should expect >2 games for any specific consoles as anything regular

Literally every indie I have paid money for on PS4 was eventually given away in PS+ before I actually played it... Lesson learned is to only buy when I am ready to dig in.

If you CAN play 1-3 though, it's obviously the better way to experience the story. The recap is serviceable at best.

Heh agreed, Yakuza 3 always gives me the feels and manly tears....
Also Y2 had the Dragon of Kansai

Rogue Legacy?!!?!?!? I'm a slightly older gamer, 29 and believe i remember the old school days but seriously I don't get these retro-crappy graphics types of games....if I really wanted to play a game like that i'd go to that dosbox website and play some random early 90s platformer with those graphics. I dont understand the hype for this game at all. Am I missing something?

Rogue Legacy is probably one of my favorite games from last year, across all platforms.

As a 29 year old gamer, I would think you've been around long enough to be able to not bind graphics with fun factor. If not, your loss.

I want to play Yakuza 4 but I can't without playing 1, 2 and 3!

Yes you can. I did it and I loved it. The story is pretty much self-contained. There are characters from previous entries coming back and references to some events of previous entries, but they are far between and won't substract from the experience in my opinion.

Getting obsessed with playing the first 3 entries before getting to the 4th will probably stop you from even playing any of them at all. Even if you managed to get all of them (and 1 and 2 would require a PS2, since the HD remasters never came West), I would not recommend playing 4 Yakuza games in a row (That is 300+ hours with some gameplay overlapping). I advise at least one or two months of cooldown between entries. You don't want a Yakuza overdose :).

I don't agree at all. The revelations and impact in the sequels is better with knowledge from past games. Plus, the sidestories with NPCs actually carry over. It's pretty entertaining. There is no need to skip any if they are able to play the previous ones. No rush.

Yakuza 4 may be awesome aswell. Too bad I dont have a PS3 anymore! Finished both Yakuza 1 and 3, and this game is amazing!
