Can people please stop doing this. Some fucking costumes would make you skip out on this game that appears to actually be releasing as if by some fucking miracle!?
If I see you in any thread complaining about games not coming over or whatever I will swing a goddam bicycle at you, son.
That goes for anyone here that "won't be buying" because of the boxart. You'll all make my list as well.
SecretBonusPoint said:
Did you even read that? Its more than costumes it actual content, just because its finally getting released doesnt mean they can start screwing us over by removing parts of the game for only those who preorder. (if thats what are actually doing I dont know, clarification is needed)
And yes the boxart is disgraceful its a five minute photoshop job people should be complaining about it so that maybe it can be improved.
What is worse than someone who complains is a person that has blind loyalty to a company.

Charging for DLC that was free in Japan might be part of the economics of localizing a game that sells 500k in Japan and 20k in NA.web01 said:
You're free to complain, naturally, but if you don't buy Y3, and they don't localize Y4, you don't get to complain about that.
web01 said:
Who said anything about loyalty to a company? A lot of us are fucking ecstatic that we have the opportunity to play this game, period. If boxart, some bullshit costumes and a throw away multiplayer challenge mode are really going to sway your buying decision that much, I'm going to go out on a limb and say you didn't really want it that much to begin with.

Yes you won't find me complaining in any thread ever! Especially not about Sega games!
And on the matter of buying games, I do so when I want to play the fucking game? I could not give less of a shit that I will miss out on some outfits for virtual whores post completion of the game and some awful tacked on 2 player mini-games, so the idea that someone would skip Yakuza 3 because of this and because the cover-art doesnt give them an erection is preposterous to me.

Also, I didn't call you a system warrior. You grew out of your Sony bootlicking a long time ago.

Whether or not it's a successful trend is absolutely open for debate, but it's a trend nonetheless.

You sure you're not like...bleeding by now? This can't be healthy.
I hate all the systems equally now. Having a game store does that I guess. =/

I would say it's absolutely not a successful trend (as shown in the other post too) :lol In Army of Two's case, they moved away from it.
Of course, maybe Bayonetta would end up more successful if they had a close up of half of her tit on the box or something.
As for Yakuza 3, maybe they could have taken the original JP artwork and took the cig out of his mouth or something (since that's probably a "no no" despite it being M rated). I honestly don't care about the half face thing, but the way they have it looks so...haphazardly slapped on there. :lol

Why is RubyEclipse never available to comment on truly awful things? I don't really understand how 2 separate territorys of the company thought this shitty boxart would be a great idea.
Oh well, will have to get a custom one done or something.

I think that's the worst box art I've ever seen. I literally can't believe they put it where his chin is getting cutoff by the ESRB rating. They must literally have NO BUDGET for this localization.
Still buying it and can't wait, though, of course...going to be awesome.

How much you're willing to pay the guy to do it largely determines the quality and effort of the guy that does it.Kagari said:
The game isn't budget price but you have to believe SEGA is budgeting this thing with the awareness that it might sell 22k copies. Because honestly, it probably will.

aside from the bad cover i finally got to preorder yesterday. i really cant wait.
Segata Sanshiro said:
Sega should ask gaf to make it a cover for free, cheaper and I'm pretty sure that it would be better than than.
In any case, I don't care, had to play the last two in Japanese and I intend to buy this. The only dealbreaker was having the original voices and it´s going to have them, so they can get my money, with terrible cover even. Will be nice playing without a FAQ and a dialogue translation.
