Customer Rating:      Summary: Jump n pray method Comment: Genji was this fist Game I bought, played, and traded in at my gaming store. What an honor for this "feudal japan" game. It's Pros are few and superficial and it's cons are many and tremendous. the first and biggest problem I had with it was the fixed non rotational camera, A beheading offense. It also left so much more to be desired, in level design, character design and all around cliche-isms.
You have you're plucky, young, crazy haired hero. Gruff, older, quiet side-kick, the "hot", yet untouchable love interest, and we can't forget the bad to his eyeliner foil. As another reveiwer said it best
"The game play is hack and slash. All that happens is "kill this giant crab, wonder around, go through the door, activate cut scene, repeat." There's no variety in the game play that keeps the player interested." -Kora
And I couldn't agree more. Long and short (with only a little ranting)this game was a MASSIVE waste of time, that I could have watch grass grow with, and be more entertained. This is NOT interesting or hard in any way unless you want to really be Zatoichi and fight blind. I would love to see it regain some honor and preform Seppuku.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Not Bad Comment: I got this one new really cheap, just to have something to exchange with my friends, for my surprise this one is really solid and fun, the graphics aren't the best now but it is still solid and better to some games now. The gameplay remembers me Omnimusha with a twist. You wont be disappointed with this one.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Beautyful but not functional Comment: After playing this game I wonder what the developers were thinking half the time. The graphics were great prolly some of the best I've ever seen. The game play could have been a lot better. For one thing it would be nice to know where your going half the time or to see the enemy behind you so you can prepare for an attack. The controls could be somewhat better. I move left and it goes slanted to the left or right. Aren't these guys supposed to be professional game developers.
Customer Rating:      Summary: What a let down... Comment: I'm sorry, but those that gave Genji anything above 2 stars are either the game's developer, or haven't played many games. The story and graphics are the only salvagable piece of this disaster scene, and you don't get to enjoy either very much. Imagine with a stuck, fixed-camera and only having 3 moves per character, and you get this poorly designed arcade style game. It isn't exactly a side-scroller, but it might as well be with the confined spaces and blind spots.
There is a reason this game is ALWAYS on sale from Amazon for $20, and you will be sad you even paid that much.
Customer Rating:      Summary: suprised! in a good way. Comment: having heard the negative feedback from it's show at e3 (large crab) I was very cautious to try this game, but I am glad I did. I would say this game is a mix of ninja gaiden and a simple action rpg, but it makes for some very fun gameplay. It was pure enjoyment for me the whole way through. Though The game seems rather easy at times, it can be pretty challenging at others. If I knew I would like this game so much I would have bought it sooner. Mostly, I was very suprised at how good this game was.
