PS3 - Yakuza 3 - More On Yakuza 3 And Its Idyllic Summer Getaway Kotaku: A third, proper Yakuza game? For the PS3? Exciting stuff. So let's go over a few of the game's finer details. While we already know the game will be an immediate sequel to the second, featuring the same characters and the same storyline, what we didn't know was that the game's going to be taking a pleasant break from the streets of faux-Tokyo. While the game will still be based around Kamurocho, it'll be adding a "second city": island getaway Okinawa (or, at least, a fictional take on Okinawa).

PS3 - Yakuza 3 - Yakuza 3 Announced (No, Not Again, A New Yakuza 3) In the latest issue of Famitsu, it was announced that SEGA's toasted Toshihiro Nagoshi has been working on Ryu ga Gotoku 3 (Yakuza 3). This isn't to be confused with Edo-era PS3 exclusive Ryu ga Gotoku Kenzan!, which is actually the third Yakuza game in the franchise, but not actually Yakuza 3. Confused? According to the article, Kenzan! was a spin-off, and this newly announced game is actually the third one in the series, m'kay. Work began on the game commenced after development on Kenzan! finished, and the story picks up where Yakuza 2 left off. Well, that makes sense at least.

According to Neogaf post the game have a release date set for spring Spring 2009 and it's exclusive for PS3.

8 Jan, 2008 We know we shouldn't wish our lives away or anything, but after watching the latest Yakuza 3 movie to be posted on the game's Japanese site, it's kind of hard not to. The 17th Century setting looks lush and the sword-focused combat elegantly brutal. And it's got a sexy little mini-game that is sure to catch the eye of any gamer that appreciates pretty ladies. Check out the footage below for yourself (the lady-gazing starts at 1.40). We're not sure women in ancient Japan wore ... » Read More

PS3 - Yakuza 3 - Japan's Favorite Crotch Model Makes Appearance in Next Yakuza Japan's favorite crotch-shot model, Yinling of Joy Toy, will be making an appearance in the upcoming third installment of Yakuza.

If you don't follow Japanese soft-porn celebrities, Yinling is a Taiwanese-born swimsuit model well-known in Japan primarily for her signature low-squat and legs-spread pose.

Skilled as she as at this job, she also moonlights as a "talent," which is defined as someone who appears on Japanese variety shows regularly enough to be known for doing such. Yes, I know that's extremely circular and makes no sense, but often enough neither do the existence of most "talents."
