The game reminds me of Shenmue, GTA and FF personally.

Its kind of sad that the game is not selling all that much in North America, its got great atmosphere and good story.

Sure there are a few issues but overall the good far out way the bad imo.

ANyone else a fan of this game?
Ive never been a huge fan of the series, but this really is a good game. Played it at my friends for about 5 hours and really enjoeyd it, going to buy it myself sometime very soon.

I think 1UP gave a review that I agree with for this game, though I havnt finished it yet. Im surprised there isnt more talk about it on here!
This is one of the most deeper console games this gen imo, there really is TONS to do.

I´m enjoying it so far,my only complaint is the lack of VA in many sequences of the game. It´s strange to start a dialogue with a VA cutscene and then go to a text only for the rest of the conversation.

Seems kinda niche. Not the concept, if that was niche GTAIV wouldn't have sold 2.7 copies per organic life form. The appearance of it is a turn off to many. It has good reviews though, AAE here, so in System Wars it's probably a decent weapon for Cows :P.

Loved part 1 and 2 (big fan of Shenmue, so no surprise). I was also not impressed by the demo but liked the full game. Some animations during freeroaming and the lack of voices in many scenes are a bit archaic, but the game really shines both technically (facial animations) and storywise during the main quest.

I own it, installed it, and it's sitting on my desk. I just need to finish Yakuza 2 before I pick up on this one! Still, I love this series- there's definitely some old-schoolness to it that could turn people off, but it's just such a crazy game loaded with things to do that I can't help but enjoy myself.

The game play wasn't fun to me. The fighting is not enjoyable.

The first one had English dubs lol but no one bought it so dont blame SEGA for not caring about it anymore.

Yeah I was thiiiiiiiis close to picking it up last night but I realized I am getting some game orders in today. If I have any spares I am selling them off and I will pick up Yakuza. Just Cause 2 is also on the list.
