If you haven’t played any games in the Yakuza franchise before, here is a look at the newest version of Yakuza scheduled to hit the Sony PS3 exclusively. The game looks complete to say the least, with a multitude of different things for the player to do and immerse themselves in the world of Japan, complete with gambling and karaoke.

My biggest gripe with this trailer is the lack of gangster related events. For a game that uses one of the most well known Japanese gang names in history, it lacks violence and action. Many are calling this Shenmue 3 because of the lack of gun play, but perhaps this is just to show the diversity of the title and interest those gamers that are looking for more than a Grand Theft Auto clone.

What will you be doing in Yakuza 3 if it hits North American shores? Fish, batting cages or picking up hot women in a club?
