Onimusha...smoother than a cheerleader\'s thighs?

[GmanJoe]

What can I say? This game is outstanding! The graphics are stunning. And to top it off.....the musical score is top notch! I swear, what John Williams(orchestra conductor) did for Star Wars, it\'s the same for the musical score for Onimusha!

Now, the background maybe prerendered, but the characters are so graphically well done that they don\'t look out of place like Resident Evil\'s characters were on Playstation One!

And the control, it\'s old school RE with enhanced moves: quicker and faster with a sweet 180 degree turn. The attack moves are scarier than the monsters that  pounce on our hero, Samanasuke. I swear, when he swats that sabre, he\'s a freaking blur! And that impaling move....it would give Dracula nightmares!

So far, I\'ve only had 30 minutes of play. Had to have my sleep or I\'m useless at work so....

This game is so freaking smooth. I don\'t care if it\'s only 9 hours long. RE was 6 hours long and I enjoyed the hell out of each game. Metal Gear Solid was a paltry 4 hours long and I was very very satisfied with the game.

So last night, I had a chance to play the game a bit. So far, no complaints.

Smoother than a cheerleader\'s thighs? Well...nothing is smoother than a cheerleader\'s thighs but this is close.

Great subject title!
That does it! I\'m buying it this weekend. Man I need another job.

:eek: get the game now it rocks.

I will buy it tonight when I go reserver MGS2

The Blue Falcon agrees with this topic 100%!!!!  I kept playing it until almost 4:ooam this morning and still haven\'t gotten very far.......kinda like with that cheerleader!!!!!!

I\'m on my 2nd go with Kadeka (sp??) ya know the chick

She pisses me off, I have to use my medicine to keep her healthy

I want to stock pile medicine to get through the Dark Realm, I made it to ablut 8 or 9 levels but then died,

yea,

I\'m getting killed with the girl too. I can\'t figure out the puzzle near the garden. I guess I\'ll need whatever is in the chest to open that door outside the mirror (save point).

darryl, any help?

Theres a book in the door somewhere through the door to the left of the chest. The answer to the question is only 2 selections not 3 like the ones before the last choice leave blank

It took me a little while also

i still need this game, screw the cheerleaders... heh, i said... ah forget it, I NEED THIS GAME!

I only played the game for an hour today and I already think it freakin\' rocks! I love how fast he moves when you attack! I was afraid he would move too slow, which just wouldn\'t suit a warrior like him. Unfortunately, I can\'t play again till tomorrow. Can\'t wait!

Truly a MUST HAVE for any PS2 collection!!!!

damnit,

I\'m in the dark realm and I\'m out of herbs. This sucks. Playing the girl took all of my herbs.


HINT, Save your herbs when you\'re playing as the girls so that you can turn them into medicine when you\'re the guy again.

The girl does suck, almost bad enough to make me turn the game off. Fighting with her is pointless, as you don\'t get souls and you get your ass kicked until you get the other dagger. I\'m using her for the second time--right before the last boss (or so I would imagine?! ).

Ugh!

I used all my herbs when I was her, and at times had to run through many situations with NO health left.  I HAD to save it in that condition once and that was no fun.

I too get through to like the 7th level of the underworld, but those minotaur looking things keep whippin me good!  I keep forgetting that when they do their double attack, I gotta block again!!

ARRRGH!!  I\'m goin to bed

I agree with everyone this games is sweet. So far it hasn\'t been as scary as some of the othere resident evil games, but i dont think thats what it is aiming for wither.
I have to comment on some of the puzzle elements of the game though. They just seem to blend right into whats going on and never seem out of place. I am not that far into it yet but I have had a couple number boxes (easy but still a good idea)
and the part where sam and kaeda have to escape by pulling levers and letting eash other through. This was col and i especially like lighting the candles in the one room and then the  x + o platform you have to walk across
