  • As it seems so dated, you might want to hold out until Yakuza 3 is released. It’s bound to fill you in on the story of the second instalment anyway. Well, that is if you can wait for about a year for it to be translated into English. 8.2/10Print thi...

  • Abstract:  It just goes to show that the PS2 is still capable of releasing amazing games that can compete with the next-generation crowd and Yakuza 2 certainly proves that point. Not only is this a brilliant sequel to an excellent crime drama but it’s simply a bi...

  • Intriguing story; great cinematic presentation; surprisingly brutal combat.
  • Combat can get tedious; cameras are poor; the overall world feels rather cramped.
  • Yakuza 2 presents an interesting problem. For a game that has a lot going for it, it also has quite a few elements that are technically subpar. The camera is a bear to wrestle with, combat can be tedious, and it just lacks any sort of overall polish. W...

  • Abstract:  Theres something alluring about the notion of a criminal with a conscience and a deep-seated sense of honor, who swears oaths of loyalty to a clan and who would sacrifice his life for what he believes in. Yakuza 2 taps into this allure with good resul...

  • Fastpaced, fun brawling action, Lengthy, entertaining story, Outstanding voice acting, Beautiful, bustling environments.
  • Activities other than fighting are not very interesting, Game frequently provides no sense of how to progress, Poorly implemented quicktime events.
  • An entertaining story and a strong sense of visual style help make this brawling adventure worthwhile. ...

  • Abstract:  Yakuza 2 has the unfortunate status of being a late sequel to a niche title (the first Yakuza released in the U.S. two years ago, and the Japanese version of this sequel is actually two years old as well), because it's a very good game that's somewhat ...

  • Une ambiance visuelle et sonore toujours au top, Des combats riches en possibilités, Les personnages très travaillés, Une histoire intéressante avec de nombreux rebondissements, Une bonne durée de vie
  • Une caméra toujours un peu capricieuse dans certains combats, Le jeu est intégralement en anglais, Toujours un peu perdu dans le scénario au début
  • Très bonne suite de Yakuza, pour ma part, il est au même niveau de qualité que le premier avec une histoire toujours très mature et intéressante à suivre. J'ai particulièrement apprécié la nouvelle aire de jeu dans le Kansaï, proposant ainsi des décors et...

  • Abstract:  Yakuza 2 är ett spel där handlingen och slagsmålen står i centrum. Sega talar om att man kan vandra i en påtagligt levande värld - stämmer det? I Yakuza 2 spelar du som Kazuma Kiryu. För ett år sedan lämnade han sin högt uppsatta position i Tojoklanen,...
