Yeah, this is difficult if you consider this necessary for 100%
I only felt it was necessary in THPS2 cause getting all gaps unlocked a character.

Also I always thought most of the Hawk games were easy. Project 8 spiked in difficulty so much. I never got 100% in it.

This. The IRS website offers free software if you make under a certain amount.

If you are past that limit then you can just manually fill out your tax forms on their site which is what I've done for years cause it's free. After you've filled out your forms, the IRS system checks it and will tell you whether you filled them out correctly or not before it actually submits them so you don't need to worry about screwing up.

I personally enjoyed K2 a bit more than 0, if only because the new engine is SO GOOD. The combat is brutal, and people didn't like going back to just one fighting system but I really liked it. The music and story are not as good (I mean, come on, 0 was just amazing in that regard) but I like the non-loading screen cities and the fighting. Plus, it still has the Hostess Club!
Yeah I didn't like the one fighting style in K2. Made the fighting seem really repetitive. Also the frame rate was lower than 0 and K1. I'm not one to normally care too much about that stuff but it was just really jarring since 0 and K1 were so smooth.

TheoryzC posted...
Are the games like Sleeping Dogs?

Sleeping Dogs is a GTA clone and a damn good one. Yakuza games aren't anything like GTA. You aren't riding around in cars, killing people, or getting chased by the cops. Also the city is very small. You can walk from one end of the map to the other in a minute or so. What the Yakuza cities lack in size they make up for in density. You can walk into the majority of the stores and resturants.

as a matter of fact, yes. Although shots of other liquors dont bother me like that, I can only handle tequila if its in a mixed drink.
Follow up question. Does other liquor you drink have the same proof as the tequila you shot?

Most people don't like the taste of tequila or how strong it is so they only drink it in shot form. Then people get super fucking drunk and the illusion around tequila making people wild is perpetuated.

I'm weird and love the taste of a nice glass of chilled 1800 Silver. If more people drank tequila like they would a nice glass of scotch(which I also love), that illusion I mentioned earlier would be much less a thing.

Also wasn't trying to call you out man. For all I know, your stomach just doesn't agree with tequila.

will I be disappointed with 1 and 2 after 0?
Recently I've started leaning towards CyricZ's opinion that people should play 0 first. Only to make sure they fall in love with the series. As long as you go into Kiwami 1 with the expectation that it'll feel watered down in comparision then you'll still have a great time with it.

I will say. Nearly all of the games are exactly the same. You play as badass Kiryu in the same 1-2 cities with a serious crime drama for a main story and wacky side stories. Each game just had different levels of side content to explore within the cities. If you love 0, you'll love the other games.

What order should I play the games in?
Start with either Kiwami or 0.

Kiwami is a remake of Yakuza 1 on the PS2. Because of this, it's the oldest and lacking in content compared to the rest of the games.

0 is the prequel and is considered the best game in the series.

I started with Kiwami first because I didn't want to play the best game in the series then go to the most bare bones game. It's your call either way.

From there you can play in order. Kiwami 2(remake of 2) 3, 4, 5, and 6.

I never did anything with him. >_>
Mr. Shakedown is a dude that randomly roams the cities and fights you. He's super tough and if you lose to him, he takes all your money and adds it to whatever he's already carrying. If you can win the next time, you get your money back.

Exploit info from CyricZ's guide
"The interesting thing about him is not just that he keeps coming back with more money, but if you have the CP award called "Mr. Shakedown's Deep Pockets", you'll get 1.5 times anything you pull off of him. This makes his normal 1 billion in the late game turn into 1.5 billion, but you can go further with that idea. If you wish to balloon your money to new heights, go out and purposely lose to Mr. Shakedown, then find him later and apply as many multipliers as possible. Defeat him and you'll rake in a mad stack. This mostly only works for Kiryu, as he's the one to get that reward. Repeat this with the same amount of money and you can turn 5 billion into 7.5 billion, then 11 billion, then 16.5 billion, and so on upwards until you feel like stopping."

you don't need to play the original two since Kiwami and Kiwami 2 are remakes that add extra content.

but anyway, they're story-heavy games with super long cutscenes and a lot of twists, where the main plot is often a really serious, gritty crime-drama, but the side-quests are super hilarious and absurd. you'd think it shouldn't work, but it does.

and as far as gameplay goes, they're JRPG/brawler hybrids, with a lot of side-content (batting cages, arcade machines, hostess clubs, etc.)
Nailed it. Only thing I would expand on is the side content. Some of it is so deep you'll spend hours just playing that. Hostess club is a prime example of this.

Bart fumbles a game-winning catch in the little league finals, and the entire town starts harassing him.

There have been plots where the whole town turns against Bart, even as far back as season one. What makes this one stick out is that everyone in Springfield - every child, as well as every adult - starts dropping the heaviest shit on Bart. People drive up in their cars and insult Bart to his face, his fumble is torn apart in the news and everybody at school is pissed off that Bart missed the catch. It gets to the point that Bart has a nervous breakdown about the fumble and gets admitted to hospital, and then he climbs out onto a perch in an attempt to kill himself. Moe says something like "do a flip", and Bart jumps. Obviously he survives, but that's still super fucked up.

Marge rightfully flips her shit at the entire town for driving a 10 year old boy to suicide, and out of guilt they decide to stage a rematch so that Bart can make his catch. They set up the same scenario for about 12 hours until Bart makes his catch.

Weak ending, but it's the bulk of the episode and the suicide attempt that really puts a sour taste in my mouth.
Oh damn I remember that episode. Really odd chain of events.

Somewhat agree. I didn't like the fact that I went through the entire game with someone and in the end I find out it had been multiple people. The stranger Co-op concept was incredible though. Both of you communicating only through chirps. I had a number of Journey sessions where I went through the entire game with one person and I felt this strong connection with them. After the games ended, messages would be exchanged. Never experienced something so personal within an online game.
