4.5/5

True to form, with added focus and polish that was a bit lacking in the last few titles. Breaking the faces of Japanese miscreants never looked, felt or sounded so good. The graphics are great, the music is solid, the 80’s vibe is charming, the story, while still ridiculous and fantastic, is much more coherent and focused. If you love that open-world, beat ’em up gameplay style and emotional, dramatic storytelling the series is known for you need look no further, as this game does it and does it well.

4/5

An immense adventure through the food, fun, sights, and lives of a virtual Japan. The storytelling fell off, but if you can get engaged in going places, having you characters sampling meals, playing Virtua Fighter 2, and doing practically everything you could want to do yourself in a vacation to Japan, you probably won’t even care by the time you’re done. As a game it could clearly use more polish in areas, but for a heavily story driven game to be packed with so much extra content is refreshing, and a rarity in today’s game market. Plus, the combat’s solid, and all the DLC is free.
