Pre order isn't up yet, i'm just repeating a email I recieved
EDIT: Wording seems like no pre order and it's just gonna show up on the store on release
Dunno why I let myself expect anything else from Sega Europe.

I want this game, but I'd feel really dirty pre-ordering a game that doesn't even have a release date.
Saejima is awesome. you'll see
Just finished Saejima's chapter, and now on Tanimura's
This is my first Yakuza game, but I'm pretty much caught up on the story as I've watched all of the "Reminisce" cutscenes.
I hope after I beat the game there is some kind of post-game option that lets me explore at my leisure and do any of the activities without restrictions. Such as the Dojo Training, Golf, Fishing, etc.
Soon enough I'll be ready for Yakuza 5 being all caught up with the plot.
There an eta when release date will be revealed?
Now that I have no idea where I am or what's happening I should go back and finish 4.
one week before TTK. do it
MGSV though. It will have all of my attention.
1 and 2 are set around Christmas, when did they get localized?Yakuza 5 is set around Christmas so I'm expecting either a December or January release.

given the recent goingson (PSN avatars, preorders) I don't think a September release is unrealistic for Y5September releases in the west.

The guy from SEGA seems to suggest that it won't be coming in September. See post 10 here:

He doesn't really pinpoint a more exact date, but just says the release date will be revealed in a few weeks.
Sep 22 would be a good date. avoid all the big releases in the next 2 weeks.

So we'll probably be getting a release date next week, or maybe the week after.
At this point, I think early to mid October is likely.
Hmm, I'm not sure...Yakuza 5 releasing during the same period as Disgaea 5, Dragon Quest Heroes, and Tales of Zestiria just seems unlikely. Sure, Yakuza 5 is a very different sort of game as the ones I mention, but I'd think it would on a week where there isn't a major release.
Late October is possible. Still MGSV just came out today and Super Mario Maker is next Friday, so either late September or late October is viable too, since as far as I'm aware MGSV and SMM are this months major releases, and I don't think an expansion pack for Destiny would be counted as a major release, unless for those picking up the game for the first time, so who knows.
Done my part
Now just give me a release date Sony/SEGA.
New* PS3 arrived today! (Old one YLOD a while ago). It's BC too, so maybe I'll replay the series in preparation of 5. I don't think there's an undub for Y1, is there?

on the ps2 disc? no. You'd either have to buy a JP copy or I guess look on youtube and see if someone subbed jp video footage?
You can play Yakuza 4 since it has a recap of the entire series from an option called Reminisce from the main menu. It pretty much covers all of the story stuff with fairly in depth narration for all of Yakuza 1, 2, and 3.
That is how I caught up with the series.
So from what I understand, Yakuza 4 took place in just the district of Kamurocho which was just section of Tokyo.
And Yakuza 5 has 5 sections / districts.
But the thing is how large are these districts compared to the one in Yakuza 4?, is the city really 5 times larger than Yakuza 4's?
Okay, just beat Yakuza 4. Now to do some of the post game content, but I'm pretty much caught up on the story and am ready to jump into Yakuza 5 whenever it unlocks on PSN.
Still no sign of pre-order from the EU PSN ....
Yakuza 5 has one section in five different cities across Japan. Tokyo's part will remain Kamurocho. Not sure how reliable it is, but I heard that Kamurocho and Osaka are the most eventful and interesting, with the other three cities being rather bare bones in terms of content and sidestories.
Still no sign of pre-order from the EU PSN ....
Pretty sure they've already stated there won't be a pre-order in EU, but that the game will be available at the same discount for the first week or so to PS Plus members only.Still no sign of pre-order from the EU PSN ....

Let me get this straight, the discount in the EU is only for PS+ members?
Yes. Probably a SoE decision.Let me get this straight, the discount in the EU is only for PS+ members?
