   A standalone split-off story for the main protagonists of the yakuza series most of youre favorite characters appear in this over the top zombie story. dead souls weighs in with a lot of content and extras like mini games. The main story will keep you busy for over 40 hours if you do all the sub missions for each playable character. the graphics of the game look the best yet in terms of the city itself. You do get a little framerate drop when there are massive hordes of zombies on-screen but this is rare. Another review said the camera and shooting mechanics were dodgy. but this isnt correct as you need too upgrade youre shooting ability by gaining xp levels. and the camera is player positioned so after a few hours its fine. with the fun mini games. slot machines, pachinko machines,roulette, poker, baccarat, blackjack, and a range of Japanese betting games that are fully explained plus leaderboards for an endless zombie mode. This game is just full of content. My only downpoint for this game is a point in the final boss battle were you have to throw grenades in the creatures mouth. but you cannot do this unless in exactly the correct spot. after 30 mins of trying i finally did it but it took two or three goes to find the correct spot as you cannot throw from were you would expect.Sorry if slightly vague but i didnt want to put a spoiler in. Overall great if you know and love the series and ok as a zombie shooter for people who have not played a yakuza game before.… Expand

   Had the good fortune of finding a cheap import retailer and I've been waiting to share my opinion. Dead souls does nothing in spectacular fashion, it belittles the series I have come to know and love, it makes no sense, the concept is basic and bare boned and the design is hardly inspired. That said, there is something about Dead Souls that makes it one of the most enjoyable entries in the series. Should you buy it at full price? Hell no! Trust me when I say this will be in all good bargain bins by the time Winter rolls in, and at a discount or rental price Dead Souls can turn out to be money well invested.… Expand

   Tokyo is under zombie attack and only the Japanese mafia can save it!!
   Good plot, but the game poorly executed.
   When it works, it works well and gunning down hordes of the hapless undead is chaotic fun like Dead Rising. But sadly this ddoesnt last, the clunky camera controls and extremely poor aiming system will leave you as easy meat. I'm really not enjoying this game at all, and just want to get to the end and file this away.
   As a zombie slaying game, Dead Rising 2 Off The Record is a much better game, and will probably cost you less money.
   As a Yakuza game, Yakuza 3 and 4 are a million times better than this.
   I love Yakuza, but this is a poor entry into the franchise.… Expand
