I'll vouch for that. Even my XBONE phat 2013 model was better built than the pro. Hell, i had to source my HDMI cable from the Xbox One before I sold it because the Pro comes with a little nublet of an HDMI that didn't even reach from the console to my TV. Every single place sony could shave a nickel and dime, they've done it.
Im a couple of hours into Judgment. Its very much still a Yakuza game. And I know the comparisons have existed for a while now, but I think this one is actually closer to Shenmue than any of the others. There's a good amount of detective work in the form of examining parts of the environment for clues or gathering info by questioning witnesses and other bystanders that could be involved in the case you're working.
