Kiryu Kazuma is one brutal bastard. As you'll see in the video below, there's nothing he enjoys more than beating men into comas with bikes, billboard signs and whatever else he can get his criminal claws on. But then again, he has to, because Yakuza 3's take on Tokyo is the most hostile in-game city ever.

Commuters who'd rather kick the crap out of you than make their 9 o'clock bullet train. Street thugs who want to rob you blind. Seemingly innocent senior citizens that want to pummel you silly rather than pick up their pensions. Everyone's out to get you. Thankfully, there's no argument that can't be solved with a good, hard plastic cone to the cranium.

If you're hungry for more Yakuza 3 action, why nottake a gander at ourSuper Review?
