Code for the safe on Serena roof: KP56VFA9MX2B7LH

Where to locate bento for dude on floor in Onomichi: the convenience store in Kamorucho by the batting centre. (And it's the pork bento set you're after.)

Finished it. Loved it. Thought elements were better in previous versions of the game. But loved Hiroshima and the cast of characters throughout.

I just uncovered the Onomichi code. How many more hours of main story do you think I've got left?

My biggest gripe with 6 is how shallow the basic combat is. Maybe I'm remembering wrong, but with each game since 3 combat has gotten simpler and simpler, with some games removing the majority of combos entirely in favour of heat moves. I don't mind heat moves but it'd be nice if we had more than 2 combos.

I read something before release which said downloading the demo was a great way of reserving space on HDD for the full game. (That and the fact people who got the very first release of the demo got the whole game.) So yeah, maybe.

I’d say another 1-2 hours or so. All in all i spent 35 hours on the game.

Agree with the combat. The upgrade system is the weakest out of all the games. As it’s so easy to spend your points on trying to max out your stats and ignore the battle skills etc.

Finished. vague spoilers/tongue-in-cheek whinging.

Score upon first set of credits rolling: 9/10

Score after second set of credits rolled with everything having been explained away, and nothing left to the player's imagination: 7/10

Not really, but strawberry floating hell that would have been an amazing way to end things.


Game time was 42 hours.

The state of the head on the Premium Adventure mode Ono Michi costume :lol:

Completed it last night and dam that was an emotional ending, I completed the game just over 30 odd hours and I'm now going back to complete all the side stories.

Also got the gold trophy for completing the game on Legendary difficulty by making an extra save just before the final battle and loading that save after completing the game and changing the difficultly to legendary for the final battle.

No, when he shows up is somewhat random, but he appears once you've beaten Sodachi and Saigo enough times that they send you a text. Beat them again and Amon will then turn up challenge you. Showed up for me *ages* after Saigo sent me the text and I beat him.

I actually just fought him last night, the battle wasn't too bad, too me a couple of tries but in the end running up to him and kicking him was the best strategy though those bloody drones can piss off.

Good on yous guys for beating it but the drones made it too cheap a fight for me to bother persisting with. It's actually the first time I've fought the guy in Yakuza and I'm kind of thankful if the other ones were set up in a similar way. (i.e. completely un-Yakuza like.)

I have this on its way from Boomerang would downloading the demo help speed up the install time?

Um. ...no. I think? Although the demo is the same size as the full game, it just reserves the space for the full game. I don't think it installs any data beyond the demo.
