So a friend of mine just came back from a trip to Japan, where he, by my request, bought Yakuza 3 for me.
Now I suspected that since the previous Yakuza games had english subtitles, that this one would too.

If it does then my hour of starring at the option screen with my dictonary hasn't given results.

In addition the entire screen turns black and white when I start the game, leading me to believe there is either something wrong with the TV, Which I find unlikely since the colors are back when I exit the game. Or my 40GB PS3 is having difficulty handling it in comparison to my friend 60GB.

So now I'm stuck trying to fix the color in the game and figure out if learning Japanese will take less time then Sega releasing a DLC which included English subtitles in the game as a online petition wants.
