An exelent example of what the Playstation 3 can do graphically. but if you actually play it then you'll be dissapointed

User Rating: 5.5 | Genji: Days of the Blade PS3
Well, SCEA needed a game to use as an example for the graphical capabilities of the PS3, and they got one. The trouble is that behind these good graphics is a game that is missing several things crucial for a good hacknslash.

First of all there is the moves. Most hacknslashes have a good and large set of moves that you can pull off. look at Star Wars episode three. Sure it had it's problems, but in the end it was a fun and satisfying sword swinger because both of the playable characters had a large set of moves that they could perform. Genji does not do that. there are four characters but each one only has around 8 to 10 moves. Yes it's fun for maybe half the game if your lucky. But as you keep going through the story, it gets very repetative and pretty boring.

The sound is sub-par. the music only has about five tracks in it and these are short, looping songs. These arn't bad, but they arn't anywhere near good either.

As i've said before, the graphics are amazing, especially if your playing it on an HDTV. There are very few games out there that can match the textures and the amount of detail that has been smashed intothis game. But even the graphics don't save it from it's worst factor.

The camera. truly this is the worst camera i've ever played with. It is totally uncontrollable and it frequently goes behind barriers or walls and hides your view entirely. It is not an uncommon occurence when you get hit or killed by an enemy that is just to the side of your view.

If you want my advice, don't waste your 60$ on this load of crap. if your still not convinced that a camera could ruin a game, then take the time to download the demo, you'll see what i mean.
