Me too, I haven't genuinely laughed so much at a videogame with such a serious central plot so much.

I love the way he's just there, throughout the rest of the following cutscene, gyrating away in the background, while Majima quizzes a hostess, and works out a business deal.

Absolutely fantastic deal. Anyone who doesn’t buy it at this price should be ashamed of themselves. Yakuza 0 is £9.99 and yakuza kiwami 2 is out next week too! On top of that we have shenmue 1 and 2 for more japanese cultural thrills. What a time to be a gamer.

That's the lowest I've seen them in one of the PSN sales. Anyone curious about the series should be jumping on 0 for just under a tenner. Phenomenal game.

I'm waiting on the PC version of Kiwami 2, hoping it doesn't take too long to come.

Cheers! I'm tempted to bite as that's a great price but now at least I know I can wait until pay day.

Oh man, just found the telephone club minigame. Bawled out loud laughing when, on my first go, I accidentally told a girl I liked grannies.

I really hope the translation team got a shitload of awards for this as the writing is strawberry floating superb.

I've had a few goes at it and the game is fun, but afterwards... Every time you get a "good" date you have a choice of two women and the correct one is seemingly completely random. Gave up after the fourth attempt in a row; not a single hit. It's not fun because there's no sense of fairness, it's just a 50/50 shot.

Hmm.

I got lucky on one of those and actually had a good date, which allowed me to get the trophy so yay.

So, without watching the above I just completed this quest...

while alone in my apartment. With all the lights off. With headphones on.
