Wow, interesting, is there something new with FOTNS?
I mean, I guess if I think about it, ever since New FOTNS came out 13 years ago, ever since then there's always been something going on with the franchise every year since then.
I recall in Tokyo in 2013 there were tons of FOTNS pachinko machines, heavily advertised as well.
Amazing that this franchise just keeps going.

I saw this on FB this morning. Hype for this one, trailer looks great, just hope they bring it outside Japan.
Amaziiiinnnnng! Ryu ga Gotoku is one of my favorite modern franchises, especially Ishin and Kenzan. I'm sure this will be a good take on Hokuto no Ken. Speaking of which, my absolute favorite Hokuto game must be Seikimatsu Kyūseishu Densetsu for the PlayStation. I love this game, from start to finish. If you're into Hokuto's typical violence and drama, this is a must have.

hey friend no one here is japanese nor speak japanese soooooooo
i mean fuck did you go to the wiki page just to copypaste that name? it's got the tone over the u and everything
I have a universal Scandinavian keyboard, which makes typing macrons easy, as well as typing funky Scandinavian letters, like Æ, Ø and Å, so don't freak out if you happen to see me use those. On a serious note, as I said, this is my favorite Hokuto game [and one of my favorite PlayStation games, in fact], which is why I know the title so well, so no, I didn't paste it from its wiki page. I doubt it even has a western page, since it was a Japanese exclusive, which is a shame. I always thought it was a niche game, too.
On a side-note, it has one weird extra feature. The game makes use of extensive in-engine cutscenes, and once you beat it, you unlock the option of substituting any and all lines of spoken dialogue with anything else that's said in the game. There are hundreds of lines to choose from. This might not seem like too much fun unless you speak Japanese, but you can always choose a scene where people just stand around, and talk calmly, and change their lines to screams of agony.

Looks cool.
Kenshiro's voice seems off though, need more ATA.

The Ryu ga Gotoku Studio is on fire these days. Kiwami is awesome, Kiwami 2 got announced today on their live stream (it's funny that most of the heads at the studio actually look like Yakuza themselves), and Yakuza 6 looks like its going to be amazing; can't wait for those whisky glasses and stones 
Now with a FotN game by these guys, it's like this studio can do no wrong. Now, if someone could just get around to pressing some Yakuza 5 discs...

yes!. been my favourite character ever since i watched the legend of the dark king anime. completely removed him as the antagonist of the series and gave him more depth than ken. i can't think of many anti heroes like roah.
such a bad ass.

I wanted to like it, but
Spoiler:
Still, Raoh's a badass anime character. If you're going to be turned into a statue, why not go out with a cool pose?

raoh's character was heavily based on alexander the great and that's why we got that scene with his horse. alexander tamed the wiled horse who others claimed was unattainable. one account has it that he wrestled with it until the horse accepted alexander as his master. a lot of raoh's actions make a lot more sense when compared to alexander.
