I'm having a really hard time summing this video game up to be quite honest.

Beautiful, gameplay-focused, unrelenting storm of incredible gameplay.

Also, Melina is my wife.

As for my quest to make it through the entire Yakuza series, I think I like 2 better than 1, but not as much as 0.

I really liked the leveling system, and honestly, I think it's the best one yet. But the minigame selection is the weakest yet. I like the battling, and how quick and snappy it is. But I think this is the worst batch of heat actions so far... So while there are lots of positives, there are some negatives.

As for the story... I didn't start to connect to this story up until the end, but I think this had one of the more satisfying and campy endings yet.

This is still a fun ass game though. Classic Yakuza as always and I hope 3 is just as good.
