Gamersyde has got its claws into the first moving footage of Yakuza 3, a Tokyo gangster brawler exclusive to PlayStation 3. There's no direct feed, sadly.

If there's one thing the trailer makes clear, it's that the code powering this puppy is top notch. Yakuza 3 rolls out a sky-high level of detail without the slightest bit of slowdown or tearing.

The trailer shows off some of the subgames, which include more conventional options like pool, kareoke and darts plus dodgy dating and girly makeover shenanigans. There's a sizeable amount of combat in there too, of course, which looks to be just as painfully cinematic as that of the PlayStation 2 titles.

Yakuza 3 comes out in Japan in Spring 2009.

    Best game I've seen from TGS so far, just wish Sega would commit to an English release not so long after the Japanese.

    Everyone is entitled to their opinion but I love Yakuza and this just looks too good...

    Don't care too much about the minigames, but the action and story are great!

    And this game is a huge hit in Japan for Sony so good thing altogether...
