One of the best action-adventure games i have played but unfortanetly it doesnt last too long.
User Rating: 8.7 | Genji: Dawn of the Samurai PS2
First off this game maybe a bit familiar to some of u who have played Onimusha because the game plays just like it. Only differenece is that the game is much more fast pace than the Oni games and it also has the addition of jump button for more interactivity. The game playes like Onimusha as well as an RPg, what i mean by that is the fact that as u kill more enemies u get experience and level up to increase stats, another way to increase stats is by using stones known as Amahagane which u use to boost either your health, attack, and defense. Aside from the main character, u also can use another character with different abilities at abytime althugh it would have been nice to be able to switch between them during battle like in Oni 4. Remember when i said this game plays like the Onimusha games with some differences, well this game has an ability known as Kumui in which u slow time down and then the game prompts u to use the attack when someone comes at u to unleash a crtical attack to kill your opponent which is cool but its the only power u have. Okay now heres whats bad the game is really easy to play, the game has really a lack of ability and of course the worst offender is that its too short, believe me when i say it is short, it shoulld only take u about 6 hours to beat. Overall this game is very good action game despite being too short, hopefully Genji 2 will be much more longer.
