This game is great, Its Resident Evil, Samurai Style. The controls and the in-game menu are the same. The graphics are great, and the music score is is good. The voice-overs could have been better, but as I understand it, the producers were in a hurry to launch the game in the United States, so they cut a few corners there. if you ever watched Ninja Scroll from Manga Japanimation, then this will appeal to your anime persona. The demons you fight are challenging but, if you have quick reflexes and a imaginative mind, you will do just fine. One of the few problems I had was the attack combinations. You only have a set pattern per weapon, the good thing was the difference in weapons you have available to you, so it doesnt get to teadious using the same combos over and over. There is a normal Katana you have when you first start out, then you soon get the lightning katana, then you get a fire broadsword, then a duel edge saber, much like Darth Mauls saber. If you really good, you will drop down into the hell mouth and battle it out round after round with demons. there are around 20 levels down in the hell mouth. If you make it to the bottom, there will be a key, and you can use this key to unlock the door to the Bishamon Sword, which is the most powerful weapon you will find. I rate this a 4.5!!!
