Would you want Yakuza: Dead Souls to be ported to the PC?

[Darb Yelur]

I know it's an incredibly silly zombie game but I've never gotten to play it, lol. I hope they port it one day.

[Yuga-Suggah]

Yes and no. I think the game is kinda silly and it has A LOT of references to older Yakuza games if you know where to look.

There are two major problems with Dead Souls. Its not the greatest game of the series and its really only for die hard Yakuza fans. The other problem is that the game's frame rate is awful especially during explosions and large mobs. This happens a lot.

This... would not be an issue on hardware that isn't a toaster like a PS3.

[Mhmmm]

Not sure if the controls would work on PC... they would need to rework them, but yes, I would love to have that game on PC! Story was cool, you got to play Ryuji (and Majima) and the performance on PS3 was awful...

I am not sure if the fps problem in Dead Souls is a hardware isssue or not. Yakuza is a somewhat buggy series that does a very good job at hiding its bugs rather than fixing them. You can ussually find more bugs during the new engine games(Yakuza 1, Yakuza 3, Dead Souls, Yakuza 6).

I could be completely wrong, but I feel like the point of Dead Souls was to test the waters on different styles of gameplay to be used for a different game(Binary Domain). If thats true, maybe its the coding of explosions that cause slowdown. I honestly don't know.

[Ganryuu]

why the hell would somebody wants this abomination. why not kenzan / ishin instead with english language.

[Sugoi]

I wouldn't really mind. It's a fun game held back by running absolutely horribly on PS3.

That said, it's definitely the least polished game in the series and probably the least fun overall, even if Majima's section is 300% gold.

[Nerka99]

If they would rework controls... honestly it was horrible.

[Serovath]

in the future maybe but rather they focus on the main series, kiwami 2, 3- 5 remaster and 6.

then fist of north star. then we'll see bout the rest. :)

[Ethan Hunt]

Just watching this almost had me ROTFL! So yeah, I wouldn't mind trying it out.

Kenzan & Ishin would be much better

[Dome]

dead souls is kind of a crap game.

[CorporateHammer]

I would buy Dead Souls on PC in an instant. The PS3 was far from a toaster, more like a complicated machine that very few, aside from Naughty Dog, even tried to master. Everyone wanted that "I'm gonna die in 6 months Sbox but I gotta have it anyway live" "here's my monthly fee and I'll gladly recycle my console"........

How about letting SEGA take care of it one by one ? Heard about these paranoid denuvo hating pirates but anyways hope it sells so well they port the rest.

[スキム]

No. I played it on ps3, i'm a huge yakuza fan, played it during my 1st playtrough of all games (played it after 4th) . framerates aside (its not that big of an issue for me tbh) it sucks. Hard. I mean it, Youre not missing out on anything.

[Duckilous]

How about we get the other main Yakuza games first before we have a not-as-great spin-off title?

Though it would be nice to see that game ported that will run much more better on greater hardware and perhaps with better controls too.
