This is the PAL version of the game which supports 50/60 hz but doesn't have 480p (I dont think the NTSC release had it either).

While this game has built in widescreen setting it's not ideal, the horizontal resolution of this game is very low, they use many blur filters, menus get stretched and while the cutscenes have removed letterboxing all the FMV's are still in like 340p so they get pretty pixely( nothing too abnormal here other games that have scenes with letterboxing and and a widescreen settings that get rid of them, like Panzer Dragoon Orta or Ghost in the Shell Standalone Complex have the same issue), plus there are elements of the graphical design of the scenes that don't translate well for the widescreen (like the white subtitles often appearing on the white background). That's pretty much why I stick with 4X3.

The game itself is allot of fun tho facing the enemy, turning around and targeting with the wonky camera is pretty bad, but it becomes less of an issue the more abilities you obtain.

Yakuza runs at 30 frames 99% of the times except maybe for minigames and such which can bump up to 60, not too surprising considering how much's going on in this game.
