Genji: Dawn of the Samurai is a good start.

A much better start than Advent Rising... ha... ha... (bored) ok, I am a hack-n-slash fan as it is. I know Genji feels just a little dated... just a little. But, what is incredibly different in this game is the kamui (kah moo wee), this slows things down a little bit to give you a chance to deal a grande amount of damage to the enemy. Kamui, bullet time for the samurai. As you may or may not know, there are two playable characters in this game. Yo****sune and Benkei. Both play differently, Yo****sune is more likely to die, Benkei is invincible. Though Yo****sune is the funnest to use. The game still isn't challenging, Yo****sune can take damage. Benkei's stats are to high, so when he does get hit... it doesn't hurt. And he kills everything in one hit! Just about... The graphics are good, this game runs at almost 60 fps. And it has only slowed down once. And you can cut people in half! Wheeeee! The VO was all recorded in Japanese, which most of the time is a good thing. The VOs are all good, you just have to read sub-t's the whole game. And thats OK. Hey, Genji is a great game. Go buy it if you like story driven games with some good hack-n-slash gameplay. I can't wait for Genji on PS3!
