Well, good for you then.  I guess I\'ll just wait for the March release here though.  I think I\'ll rent this one first though...ZOE is what I\'m spending my money on

Yeah, but I\'m still a little skeptical.  I\'m sure it will turn out great though.

ZOE is a win win situation for me.  The MGS2 demo is going to rock even if ZOE doesn\'t.  The thing is that ZOE is going to rock big time.  Onimusha looks to be a lot of the type of fun that I really enjoy though.

Am I the only one who think ZOE looks like a MGS2 killer??? I think people are going to get so excited about ZOE when it comes out MGS2 wont be as big a deal.

So is the game as bloody as the preview pics make it look? It\'s been a while since I\'ve played a truly graphic game (UT doesn\'t count cause it\'s a little too cartoony IMO.) And how do the monsters look? Creepy? Silly? Drop-dead horrific? Let us know how it turns out.

I bought PSM2 #5 a while ago, and the (otherwise very lame) demo DVD had a great Onimusha trailer on it. I\'m so psyched up about this game. It can\'t be bad with the good reviews it\'s getting from japanese mags and it also sells like steroids to the russian olympic team. Samurais kick ass!

Onimusha has been getting rave reviews/comments so far and great sales figures. So I think it\'s safe to assume it\'ll be AAA!

I don\'t think Z.O.E. will be a MSG2 killer though... The two games are too different - but both will be great indeed. And the MGS2 demo with Z.O.E. is certainly a big plus that\'ll probably help sell the game even more!

This is what I do. I pre-order it, check reviews, then cancel it if it blows.

well vivi i reserve everything i buy like 2 or 1 month in advance to be positivly sure that ill get a copy, and during those 2 to 1 months i pay for it taking my time and not having to give 50 up front, right now i have onimusha reserved and it all paid for, and i have zoe reserved thats half way paid for, i got oni and rayman revolution, they are both great games, rayman kicks ass, andoni is hard, perfect games to hold me over till march lol
Title: my thoughts
Post by: on February 03, 2001, 10:26:45 AM
ok when i first played the game the intro was smooth and jaw dropping,,,there is blood in the game from the slashing right down to the stabbing them when they are down..since i won the import version i had to battle the language which was not that hard but the writings kicked my azz ..there is a floor puzzle in the game that had me stomped for a hour,,then whe i figured it out i was like "i\'m dumb"..i like the part when you kill someone you can take there soul to give you more power...you can upgrade weapons to get into some places..for example you gotta have a level 2 sword to get in a level 2 door and so on...the bad guys are tough,,there this one thing that abosrbs souls..if you kill a demon and his soul is released then the other monster will abosrb his soul,,he gets priority...so you have to kill him first or kill him last to get all his energy,,but they are tough too they will drain your power if they attach to you...then there is these wooden puzzle boxes you have to open to get the good items,,,you  get 5 chances to solve the puzzle before it resets...took me forever till i paid attention to the screen and figured it out "i\'m so dumb"..haha..now i\'m stuck on a puzzle...this is tough...oh yeah you can swtich characters at certain points in the game...from the main guy to the girl ninja..since i j ust got it i cant fully give a review till i get far into the game...take care gamers...bring on gt3!!!

MGS2 Is just gonna be flat out awesome, ZOE should be great itself, but the gameplay elements and just the whole prodution of MGS2 will more than likely be a step up from ZOE


Onimusha will be awesome in its own right. I can\'t wait to see 10,000 polygon baddies. I keep hearing interesting gameplay tidbis, No way I\'ll miss out on Onimusha

metal gear solid 2 will be the best game of 2k1 (if not ever).Zoe will be one of the best games of the year but, It cant beat mgs2 graphically and gameplay wise

Zoe is just a stepping stone till mgs2 comes around!
