This was my first Yakuza game, and it was a blast. This is a remake of the first game released on the PS2. The story is alright, although there were a couple problems with the pacing. The combat in this game is insanely addicting with the amount of options that you have and the combos that you can do. You can choose between 4 different styles of fighting and level them up as you play the game, essentially making the protagonist a one-man army. There are many activities to do, such as bowling, karaoke, racing with toys and many more. If you want to start playing the Yakuza games, I recommend playing Yakuza 0 before this, but you can start with this game.
