The demo thread (and OT and everything about 6 in general) should have a huge spoiler warning for the people who still want to go through the series, since it pretty much spoils the entire ending of 5 (from what I know, haven't played it yet).
Exactly. Anyone playing 5, or planning to play 5 before 6 should absolutely not touch the demo at all for fear of massive spoilers!
The Yakuza 6 demo will be the same as the Japanese one?
I assume so. The demo is very large, and it carries over data to the full game just like the Japanese version did. Since the demo is basically the first half of chapter 1 of 6, I assume its the same demo.
Awesome news on the Edge review as well. I'll have to read that when I get a chance, they've always been stingy on review scores so an 8 from them is nothing to sniff at. I actually do wonder how reviews for 6 will fair, bearing in mind the divided reception the game got in Japan from fans (me personally, I loved the game, bar one bit at the end).
Also, with FOTNS out very soon in Japan, Sega Japan have released two trailers showing off mini games:
Eden
Wasteland
It doesn't show all the mini games, stuff like the arena and the market are not shown, and the cabaret club management/bouncer stuff hasn't really been detailed all that much either (it certainly looks like 0's - I assumed originally you just acted as a bouncer. But this time you can get rid of aggressive customers with Hokuto Shinken (aka make jerks heads explode). I'd laugh so hard if they had FOTNS Obatarian pop up in this.
The whole Wasteland exploration has me intrigued as well - mainly because I love the thought of exploring it more and more and discovering collectables for Eden - I know its how you find the videogames for your collection, I wonder what else you get. Seems like there is some sort of Metroidvania progress in it - with different parts giving your jeep different power ups (ploughing through roadblocks for example).
