As a big Capcom fan for over 15 years its always good to see the SQUARE-ENIX is not the only ones that can deliver a good story. Onimusha is definately the best in the series as far as depth of story, starts off pretty much like whats going on who is this and where did he come from; to OMG this is getting good. Ive played the Onimusha Series back to back for awhile now and its always good to see that the saga has not lost its pep.

The good: Awsome character development, the difficulty is on point (your not just going to run through enemies; some are stronger that others, much stronger), graphics are the same but they never needed fixing. Although better movie cutscene graphics could add a little spice.

The bad: the camera controls can be a big pain when it comes to enemies that come up from under you and you want to dodge and strike back (sometimes all your hitting is air). You will take on the same character a few times but the story makes up for this "how many times do I have to kiss the guys *** feeling.

The acceptable: Your able to play as other characters but its a shame that all 5 playable characters could not be on screen at the same time (the movie cut scenes contradict whats going on), I hope in future Onimusha Titles we can get a Dynasty Warriors effect going on but switching between on all characters or at least one or two while all other characters act as independants. Honestly Capcom shouldnt be limited on the PS3 for this.

Over all Onimusha:DOD lives up to the hype,
