Judgement is also a reasonable title in the same vein if you can get it for cheap. IMO Judgement is a proof of concept game which is why it doesn't follow the Yakuza moniker and is a little raw.

My buddy who is a huge fan of the series played it and said he enjoyed it as its own stand alone game. But if you compare every detail to Yakuza like some people do, he agrees you'll be disappointed. It's kinda like Mass Effect Andromeda vs the Mass Effect series. Quite a good game on its own merits, but no where close to the polish and level of the originals.


Quite a bit older is Sleeping Dogs. I love that game too for how goofy it is. Somehow for Shenmue though, I couldn't get into that series. I don't know why.
