The New Onimusha
User Rating: 9.3 | Shin Onimusha: Dawn of Dreams PS2
I have to say that I was totally blown away when I played this game. First off before playing this I had only played the first game on Xbox. Even with only having played the first Onimusha years ago I was immeadiatley able to tell this was not the Onimusha I once knew. The whole game has gotten a nice graphical polish on top of a better battle system. Not to mention the awesome co op option available now. A slew of weapons for all 5 playable characters keeps your eyes open for any of those good ol black puzzle chests which can sometimes be a pain in the rear to solve but the work is usually worth it. With a new chapter in the Onimusha series this game will satisfy the Onimusha series fans incredibly while it will have new comers going back to play the originals. Sporting lush enviornments and high res characters this game will not visually dissapoint. The game can also be replayed unlocking new modes and features. This one is sure to keep replayers happy for quite some time. This installment has definately raised the expectation bar and anticipation for future Onimusha releases. This game was a very nice project and hardcore Oni fans will definately want another does of this Oni goodness.
