Topic	SHINE's Top 10 Favorite Games of 2018 (also Top 10 Unplayed/Top 5 Old games)
ninkendo 12/28/18 11:43:11 PM #27:	Top 5 Old Games 1. Yakuza 0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FBtgI8lJ9r4" data-time=" I spent most of the middle part of my 2018 catching up on the entire Yakuza series. I had played Yakuza 1 and 2 on PS2 back in 2017, then this year I played 3, 4, 5, 0 and Kiwami doing complete playthroughs of all of them and obtaining the platinums. The got incrementally better with each release BUT THEN 0 JUST LEAPFROGGED ALL OF THEM. The amount of quality of life improvements was staggering while still retaining the feel of the older games in the series. I was always a Kiryu guy (mainly because he's the one that's playable in all of them), but they finally let Majima come out to play in 0 and he not only steals the show, but you get to see his descent into madness that makes him the character we already knew from Yakuza 1-5. In a post metal gear world I feel Yakuza is the closest we'll ever get to capturing the right mix of serious action and ridiculous japanese humor that seamlessly switches back and forth between the two without seeming awkward or goofy. 2017 was a gauntlet of games that could have won Game of the Year in any other year. In my own top 10 last year I feel the top 7 or so I could have given GotY if they had come out in 2016. If I had actually play Yakuza 0 last year when it came out I would have been comfortable putting it in that same group of games and it probably would have been #4 or #5 in that list. Go play it! --- https://imgur.com/LhGP5E6 https://card.psnprofiles.com/2/CaptainRockman.png <cite>ninkendo posted [p:914857106] in SHINE's To... [t:77340533]...</cite> <quote>Top 5 Old Games 1.
