As you know, Yakuza 3 had some of its content cut in order to be released here in America. The content was got for our benefit though. As you can see in the latest Mega64 video, the American version is just as good as the Japanese version.
We are not missing out at all. Bold italic emphasis!
Hamza Aziz, Destructoid's Community Director, has been here since day one. He was born when a tiger coughed up a hairball into a pool of ooze. He was one of the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles before budget cuts. Hamza works as a previews editor and manages a team in San Francisco. To date he has given away tens of thousands of dollars in prizes to readers. What a dick. Actually, Hamza is as kind as he is hairy.

Unfortunately I'm sure someone at Sega would watch this and not even get it. I think they're that oblivious. Still a great game, but to quote the video. "Chairman, whyyyy?!" Also reminded me of Wesker. CHRISSSSSS!
What is this "Okinawa" they speak of? It's making my head hurt.
Good video and all, but it seems to have some continuity problems. Glad to see that one guy eats McDonald's, though. I identify with that. I don't understand why he eats it with drum sticks - I guess he thinks it looks cool.
THESE GAIJIN RUINED MY GAME!! I want the authentic Japanese experience of having a purple aura, hitting a guy with a lamp, then doing a Suda51 style supplex on him. You know... Like in Japan.
Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
Definitely a better version. Sega is doing the right thing.
CHRIIIIIISSSSS
Those are called giant toothpicks.
