So, the Western Yakuza 3 release is finally real. No more denials. It’s happening.
The game will release on the PlayStation 3 in March 2010 in Europe, although a specific date is to be confirmed. To celebrate the news, Sega’s released, quite frankly, the biggest load of media we’ve seen.
PR, fact sheet, screens, trailer. Thats what you shall get.
Go get. After the break.
This is unconfirmed at this time, but according to HKGolden, Famitsu has given Final Fantasy XIII a 39/40.
It got a 10/9/10/10 from the reviewers, although this is unconfirmed at this time. Famitsu does get released out of terrortories outside of Japan, like Hong Kong and China. But the magazine, which did use to launch on a Tuesday until earlier this year in August, now gets a Friday release.
We will have to see the issue in questions before confirming it. We’ll be here all this week for if and when they leak the scans of the review before the public release.
After initially being tight-lipped when GOONL!NE asked if the rumours were true of Yakuza coming to Europe and the US, SEGA have today confirmed to the PlayStation Blog that it will indeed be making it’s way over here.
Speaking to the Blog, Kevin Eva (Online Community Manager for SEGA) confirmed that will be fully localised with “full English subtitling, whilst maintaining the rich Japanese voice actors,” and a date of March 2010 Europe and Australia was given but none for the US at present.
SEGA have today released the boxart for Aliens vs. Predator, which is due to land on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 in February.

Those lovely folks over at the PlayStation Blog have confirmed that a new PS3 firmware is on the way “very soon.” This will enable the minis from the PSP to work on the PS3. You’ll also be able to transfer data from PS3 to PS3 now through the Ethernet port, handy for those of you who might be upgrading say from an original model PS3 to a slim one.
Transfers should be pretty rapid too with the PS3′s gigabit Ethernet port.Expect various bug fixes to come too, such as the controller syncing issue which on NeoGAF is supposed to be fixed too. European CTL MusterBuster confirmed via his that the update will hit tonight at 8 PM.
Full details after the jump.

Let’s get straight to the point here. BioShock rocked, hard. It was one of the stand-out titles from 2007 (and 2008 on PS3) and it’s story-driven gameplay has left a mark on minds of gamers ever since.
In 2 months time (yes, only 2 short months to go now!) 2K Games will be inviting us all back to Rapture, but the big question is, will it charm us all over again second time round?
