GOGO FROM KILL BILL!!!
WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO ASSASSIN, GOGO FROM KILL BILL!!!
Kill Bill's Chiaki Kuriyama to Feature in New PS3 Yakuza Game Actress lends voice and likeness for new heroine role.
[STORY BY ING ENTERTAINMENT – PS3 SECTION]
Kill Bill's Chiaki Kuriyama last made headlines in the gaming world as she starred in commercials promoting the Japanese Xbox 360 version of Resident Evil 5.
Her next game-related gig is just a bit more substantial. Sega unveiled the cast of its new PlayStation 3 Yakuza game today, and Chiaki is serving as the heroine!
This is the Yakuza game that Sega Japan has been teasing for over half a year now. It's the game that follows part 4 (the PSP game, due for Japanese release later this month, is a spinoff). Sega recently gave the game a final Japanese name: Ryu ga Gotoku: Of The End. (Ryu ga Gotoku is what the series is called over there).
Chiaki will portray heroine Misuzu Asaki.
Here's a look at Chiaki in the recording studio and Misuzu in the game:
Look similar? There's a good reason for that. Just like it did for Yakuza 4, Sega is using 3D scanning technology to map the voice actors to the in-game characters.
The Misuzu screenshot actually represents our first in-game look at Of the End. Sega also provided screens showing Tetsuo Nikaido, Tomoaki Nagahama, DD, Oya-san and Daigo Dojima. Except for Daigo, these are all new characters. Daigo has been in the series since Yakuza 2.
Strangely, Sega has yet to share screenshots of the game's playable cast, which includes Goro Majima, Kiryu Kazuma, Shun Akiyama and Ryuji Goda.
Sega also hasn't shared gameplay or story details. But there should be an information flood next week at the Tokyo Game Show, where the game is expected to see its full debut.
AND NOW THE INFAMOUS GOGO FIGHT SCENE IN KILL BILL
