Awesome / Yakuza 3

• Kiryu becomes an internationally known badass. So much so that the CIA shuttles him around in a prototype spy plane to help track down an intelligence unit gone rogue.
• At the climax of the game, Kiryu, Mine and a currently comatose Daigo Dojima are cornered on a rooftop by Richardson and his henchmen. Things look bad, and then Daigo rolls off his hospital cart, picks up Mine's gun and takes out two of the goons before shooting Richardson, proclaiming "I can't afford to die just yet".
• The Final Boss Yoshitaka Mine having the honor of giving the series its first Dynamic Intro which would become a beloved staple of the series going forward.
  • One of the fight-exclusive QTEs has the two trading blows, but repeated successes allows Kiryu to No-Sell several direct blows altogether. Once Kiryu goes in for a final, heavy blow to end the scuffle, Mine then catches him off with a jab to the face — to which one final success has Kiryu so proverbially Made of Iron that Mine reels like he just punched solid steel, before getting dropkicked right in the face.
• Nakahara, the aged, out of shape patriarch of the Ryudo Family, FLIPS A BULL BY THE HORNS. WHILE RECOVERING FROM A GUNSHOT WOUND. Holy crap! It certainly makes you wonder just how strong he was when he was at his prime, if he can still pull feats off like this in the state he's in now. Not to be outdone, Kiryu then repeats the same insane action moments later!
• Hell's Floor, the final boss finisher Kiryu can learn in 3: a German suplex, followed by an arm bar, followed by a triangle choke, followed by an ANACONDA choke, followed by a GUILLOTINE choke, finished with a mounted punch to the face. Just the chokes would probably leave the opponent's trachea reduced to the consistency of a burger.
