TGS 2008: Afro Samurai Gameplay Demo (Xbox 360)

graphics are very nice,i`ll buy it!!!

hmmm might rent it

the gameplay feels like heaven sword but the textures on Afro samurai, look pretty bad, looks like a bad photoshop... I hope it just the demo

The anime was good. But the artist that did the drawings had is way to put a circular movement when the characters where striking someone with their swords and this made every hit super powerful. Without this effect, I think a little something's gonna be missing in the game. In the end the game looks very good and promising but way tooooooooo repetitive.

The game looks interesting. I would give it a chance first, because I did not think Ninja Gaiden Sigma would be all that great but the story line was good and combat system was great. So I'm sure this game has the potential to make a good rateing. Most slice and cutting him up type games come out pretty good look at God of War and Ninja Gaiden Sigma.

SOLD!

graphics are nice. the game play looked slow.

Can you say Game of the Year in '09???? .....LOL.....neither can I.

the anime rocked but don't think i'm gona buy the game

Something wrong with you people

i have death rock samuirai eiei

yeah, id have to agree with mollingmeatball, it looks like it will be fun for 15 minutes and then we'll wanna die from repetition lol. but hey, if it has the afro samurai show included in the game, ill buy it cause the show was amazing!!!!!!

Looks incredibly repetitive. Its just slice slice stab slice chop slice etc. It will be fun for about a couple of hours, but thats about it. Afterall, there's always God of War and Ninja Gaiden.

Looks like a typical repeatitive button smasher that tries to capitalize on the popularity of a Jap anime. Action looks blandly unexciting....it neither have the grandiose scale of Dynasty Warriors nor the AI and intensity of Ninja Gaiden. Anyhow Afro Samurai was just an above average samurai vegeance story loaded with cliches and unpromising story and character development, it doesn't really serve as good video-game material.

this is game is dick, looks horrible :( and im a big fan of the anime, this is way too sad.

the move on 1.04 is awsome

Gotta love chopping people in half. imagine if the insides looked like gears of war. =)

this looks lackluster. having watched the show, it bugs me that it takes him so long to defeat the enemies that would have taken him one sword slash in the series.

gonna buy it! O_O

standard hack n slash I guess but the bad guys need to be more vicious, dat was wat made ninja gaiden real gud, I believe all action/hack n slash games shud have meaner bad guys

who saw that move on 00.54

i can safely say this will be nothing far from poo!

Looks similar in nature to Heavenly Sword....not a bad thing at all!

It looks kinda of boring and repetitive, but i loved the cartoon, so i'll prolly buy it anyway!

gamespot is hyping it to take a huge dump on it

looks like another button masher....and it also looks like gamespot is once again hyping up a game that will pretty much be average....

Wow. It's Ninja Gaiden, but less shiny.

im not really looking for great fighting as more than the other aspects like voice acting which is great from what i hear and music that will be great it was in da show and the art looks like it could have sum cinematic moments to say this is why i bout a ps3 or 360 i got both with a wii so i don't care what i get it 4 but im just going to rent it

I'd say they use 360's becuz they are cheaper.... but I don't know, so whatever.... I'm not a fan of 360's anyway.

Without the gore? Are yo ustupid, or did you just not watch the video at all?

cheap ninja gaiden rip off with out the gore........fail

I got high hopes for Afro!! Cheaaaawww!

Strictly legit8 u r wrong 360 sucks ps3 is best

Yeah the gore is really tamed. Maybe they have a gore option turned down for the TGS show

anyone notice they're fighting with samurai swords and theres no limbs flying off.

because 360 is the best

This game looks pretty good. I love the series! Why do they always demonstrate games on the 360?

sickkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG i hope da 2nd season is also just as marvellous hope ave gotten ma xbox b4 den!!! lool ;)

not as tingling as the anime was!

thedevildweller, it looks great not photorealistic but that doesn't mean bad....

meh.. no thanks

Why do they always play games on the 360??? O_o I heard about this game and i was told it looked awesome. Tell you the truth it dosent. I dont know if it's due to the poor video picture or what, but i'll still give the game a good look over.

Love it

yuck. looks terrible.

and one more thing, i hope they put that fight scene where afro fights afro droid in the air. That was one of the best moments in the anime, and im sure it would do well in the game too

I gotta agree with javierelopez too. The game should be truer to the anime and should institute something that really sets it apart from other hack 'n slashers. Throw in some intense aerial combat. Maybe timed button mashes to take down big guys a la God of War. A fluid combo system that lets you flow seamlessly from person to person would make sense; not just hack some guy then run to another and repeat. I dont really know, but do something to make it more than this!! I really want to like this game cause I'm a huge fan of the series but it just doesn't look like anything special. And unfortunately it looks like it might be too late to do anything about it...January 27th is right around the corner

@pyroman9997 It's an anime based game, and the anime in USA is to much sensored...

the blood effects are terrible...

The art looks great for screenshots... The game its self looks good for garbage cans though.

javiere knows exactly what he's talking about. i agree with him word for word.
