This game is highly addictive. I'm not much of a yakuza fan but after playing this I am pretty keen on trying out yakuza 3 & 4.
The combat is pretty exciting, easy controls, variety of guns with opportunity to upgrade, contains four chapters with four playable characters.
Story mode alone takes approximately 12–18 hours dependant on skill. Sub-stories available that give bonus XP and items, weapons etc.
Camera angles can become annoying at times especially during heated situations, however they are tolerable.
An awesome buy.
