Yakuza series are some of my favorite games, and they came into my life when I needed outside perspective and liberation from mundanity. Not enough people are aware of how good this series is, or what these games are even about. Tonight I seek to dispel the rumor that Yakuza is a "Japanese Grand Theft Auto" and bring to light some of the greatest characters in any video game I've ever played. Join me as I take a nostalgic stroll through the slick streets of the city that never sleeps: Kamurocho.
