Ryu Ga Gotoku Ishin Scores are in from Famitsu:

Yakuza: Ishin (PS3) – 9/9/10/10 [38/40]
Yakuza: Ishin (PS4) – 9/10/10/10 [39/40]

Notably it’s a point lower than Yakuza 5 which got a perfect score. But this could be down to different reviewers or the scope of the game being smaller this time around.

With the PS4 version scoring a point higher, which I would imagine is due to the decreased loading time and crisper graphics.

Pretty great scores, for those who put stock in Famitsu. If anyone has scans of the ishin review from the magazine send it our way!
