What Gamespot Users have to say about Muramasa: The Demon Blade
- Rating:9
Muramasa is not an instant classic, but it is a work of art.
Graphics (9.8/10): Muramasa is, by no stretch of the imagination, a work of art, something you could easily imagine seeing in an art gallery – its video-gaming as an art form. Not only is it the best looking game of the ... Read Full Review

An amazing looking and very solid game, but not without a few issues that hold it back.
I just finished beating Muramasa, so with it fresh in my mind, it's time to give my thoughts on it. I think it can be easily be said that this is a beautiful game. It's not pushing huge polygon counts, or any of that... Read Full Review

Art in Motion
Muramasa isn't really a difficult game to describe. It's not innovative in terms of gameplay, and it's not terribly deep, either. But it is an incredibly well-polished machine that satisfies on many levels. You can pl... Read Full Review

It's a good 2D hack and slash, don't use the wii remote though, lol.
If you like 2D games then this is probably for you! It all depends if you like anime style dialog and art. It's definitely something diffrent then your avrage side scrolling game, like I said in my review deck though, do... Read Full Review

Brilliant game coupled with a beautiful art style and graphics. Calling the combat system shallow is extremely ignorant.
This game is everything it was hyped to be. It has beautiful art, with a unique, unadulterated Japanese feel to it - the story and characters fit in straight with the setting, on par with many folkloric myths. The gamepl... Read Full Review

If you call it a shallow after playing Shura and Shigurui, then how does any video game entertain one such as yourself?
I will keep this mostly brief and to the point. First off, DO NOT PLAY MUSO (easy mode). Then you can mostly get away with button mashing and figuring out the trades of actual smart combat. Visuals are stunning. Y... Read Full Review

A beautifully-constructed, rewarding action adventure that is a lot more than the sum of its parts.
If you've played Odin Sphere or Grim Grimoire, you'll probably know what to expect coming into this one. And even then, you will be pleasantly surprised at what Muramasa: the Demon Blade has to offer. It's simply put o... Read Full Review
