Weirdly enough if you search for Yakuza on the EU PS Store there actually is an entry for Yakuza 5 but it's disc-only

Mid November.
Thanks. so that's 3 November releases for me. P4D, FO4 and this.
3 different platforms as well haha. I can't wait though, loved the JP version, can't wait to play it again in English (and do more side stuff, I only did the main story stuff in the JP ver)

I don't have enough room in my HDD to download.
Yakuza 4 is available on the PS Store, if digital is your thing.
I just wish Sega released a digital Yakuza 3 also... :/

They must have seen that Trails in the Sky SC finally got a release date and realized that they need to keep up.

perhaps someone should make a separate thread?
This, can anyone recommend a new internal drive? Currently have a 120 GB PS3 slim.

Before you upgrade your HDD you will need two things.
A USB back up drive to back up everything you want to save to portable storage using the PS3 Back Up Utility.
A usb flash drive which contains the current PS3 firmware revision on it that matches your PS3.
When you replace the HDD the PS3 will ask you for a flash drive with the current firmware on it. Once that is out of the way. You can then use your back up storage and do the Back Up Utility and restore your backed up data.
This drive will work - http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00C9TEC0Y/?tag=neogaf0e-20

People change their minds, especially kids. I'm not arguing with the fact that this was just a way to get in on the idol thing, but I certainly didn't know what I wanted to do with my life when I was at the age Haruka was in Y2.
She got an offer she couldn't refuse.

In some alternate universe people have been enjoying the physical, special steelbook edition of Yakuza 5 for the past year :'(
I want to live in that world.

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
I am currently using a Scorpio black laptop HDD 500GB / 7200rpm. Couldn't be more happier. The difference wasn't 'huge' moving from the stock PS3 HDD to the 7200rpm, but it was definitely a noticeable one in terms of how quickly the home icons etc come up and games load up.

A matter of weeks as the reviews are now out.
Announcement likely at PSX.

I wonder if this will make the 2015 release date.
I'm at that point where if it's announced that it will be delayed to 2016, I'd be disappointed but not surprised

Can't even pre-order in Sweden. The stor says that the game is "disc only".
You can't pre-order if you're outside of NA.
Yeah you can't preorder anywhere outside the US as far as I know. We get the discount for the first week is onsale.
I reckon/hope they do something at PSX where they talk about the third party initiative and good ol Gio Corsi comes on and talks about Yakuza 5 and then goes 'Available NOOOOOOW!'

In Europe the only discount you're getting with this game is if you've got a PS+ subscription. Otherwise, you're better off using your American account (or creating one if you don't have one yet) and taking advantage of the pre-order discount they've got going on.

no.
Mid-November, I... oh.
At this point it's probably going to be a PSX "available now" thing.
They removed mid-november from their blog post...
Urg I didn't realise that. I'm not a regular PS+ subscriber as I rarely play online. That's a disappointment.
Never bought from the US store before I guess I could look into it...
PSX announcement, or its cancelled.
