Yakuza 5 gameplay ahoy! SEGA of Japan are hyping the hell out of the new Yakuza game and it’s certainly looking good. Check out a new gameplay trailer below:
Yakuza 5 launches in Japan on December 6th 2012. Still no word on a Western release.
We’ve spoken about Game Grumps before and how it’s a great YouTube series featuring 2 funny men playing video games. JonTron and Egoraptor have now decided to tackle what is easily the lowest point in the Sonic series; Sonic the Hedgehog 2006. Check out the first video in the series below (WARNING: bad language and adult themes are featured heavily):
Siliconera have unearthed a whole heap of comparison shots from Yakuza 1 & 2 HD Edition. The screens show the PS2 originals and then the HD versions to show up the graphical upgrade.
The previously announced DLC content for Hell Yeah! Wrath of the Dead Rabbit is now available to purchase.
The Pimp My Rabbit pack includes 50 new masks, 11 driller skins for Ash’s jet pack driller, and classic SEGA franchise and character skins for $2.99 / £1.99 / €2.49 / 240MSP / AUD$4.25.

A new trailer for Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed has appeared detailing all the different gamepaly modes available in the game. Check it out:
Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed drops on UK soil November 16th 2012 for X-Box 360 and PS3. The Wii-U version follows on November 30th and 3DS and PS Vita versions launch at a later date that is still unconfirmed.
Now SEGA have announced a firm date for a Western release of Platinum Games’ Anarchy Reigns the trailers have come rolling in! What follows is 3 character trailers for the game due 11th of January 2013 on X-Box 360 and PS3:
Platinum Games have revealed that the long delayed Western release of Anarchy Reigns on X-Box 360 and PS3 is finally happening in January 2013. The Americans get it on January 8th for $29.99 while the UK and Europe get it on January 11th for £19.99/€24.99. That’s right; we get a budget priced version!
Anarchy Reigns has been out in Japan since July 5th under the title Max Anarchy. The game had infamously gone gold complete with English language versions for the July 5th release date but SEGA decided against a summer launch and delayed it for unknown reasons.
SEGA of Japan are releasing Virtua Fighter 2, Sonic the Fighters, Virtua Striker, Fighting vipers and Cyber Troopers: Virtual-On for the Japanese XBLA and PSN services. Sonic the Fighters, Virtua Fighter and Fighting Vipers will be bundled together as a $15 3 game pack on PSN all with online versus modes. This pack will come out during Autumn 2012 while the others are due “winter 2013” but we think this might be a typo and it’s actually 2012.
More interestingly is the fact that Sonic the Fighters is an expanded version that makes Metal Sonic and Eggman playable as well as the dumped character Honey the Cat. Now that was unexpected!
Unfortunately there is no word on a Western release at this time.
The above trailer uploaded to SEGA of Japan’s YouTube Channel contains a series of video game sounds that make reference to Virtua Fighter 2, Fighting Vipers, Sonic the Fighters, Virtua Striker and Cyber Troopers: Virtual-On. The video is titled 2×5 and is more than likely referencing the SEGA Model 2 arcade board that these games were developed for.
The teaser ends with the message; “See you tomorrow!” Is this the rumoured XBLA/PSN re-releases of Virtua Fighter 2, Fighting Vipers and Sonic the Fighters? Hopefully we’ll find out “tomorrow”!
