The series *has* been annual since the start. The gap years are 2007 (due to the team having to learn the PS3 architecture), 2013 (PS4 learning time), and 2019 (I suspect that Y:LAD was going to release in this year but was pushed back for the late development genre shift).
I don't count 2022 since Lost Judgment's The Kaito Files DLC campaign released that year. Otherwise, there has been at least one Like A Dragon game released every single year since 2005.
Making this review series has made me very tired, by the by.

I can imagine. HG101's expectations on writers to cover entire series are, let's say a bit much for my tastes.

I had already played most of these so it wasn't a huge problem for me. We also had some old articles for the console locked and JP locked entries, and Kurt is going to cover the FotNS spin-off later (also PS4 only).
The only one that was a headache was 5, because it is absurdly big for the seventh gen entries. It rivals the full blown turn based JRPG of Yakuza: Like A Dragon in content and runtime (Infinite Wealth ended up towering over both). Until 5, most entries were about the size of a PS1 era Final Fantasy.

The main event, everyone! The introduction of everyone's favorite scruffy 40 year old boy! Ichiban Kasuga makes his entrance with a genre shift in the turn based RPG Yakuza: Like A Dragon, one of the best games in the entire franchise (if not the best)! www.hardcoregaming101.net/yakuza-like-a-dragon/Only two more articles left until Kurt gets around to the Fist of the North Star game sometime in the future.
