The Dragon Walks the Streets Again – Yakuza Kiwami is Now Available in the Americas and Europe It’s time to bring it back to 2005 because Yakuza Kiwami, the HD remake of the PlayStation 2 classic Yakuza, is out now in the West!

The name of the city is “Eden”.” Register with us for the best in gamin...

While the great games, both exclusives, cross-platform titles and indies, go a long way in maintaining a healthy player base, both the Xbox and Steam on PC have done a better job of streamlining their platforms for the benefit of the players. Be it the refund policy, or backwards compatibility, there are areas where the Playstation needs to step up their game to really be for the players. Cross-Platform Play While Microsoft, Steam and even Nintendo have opened up their player bases to allow cross platform play across systems, Sony is stubbornly insistent on not allowing the same for the PSN network. While Sony’s ultimate reason f...
