compelling trash action

iirc, onimusha 3 was also the highest budget videogame ever when it came out

Bujingai notoriously used a certain Gackt. And is definitely trash action.

(Most memorable part of this is probably 2:23:00, as they blast holes through the walls as they make their way across the inside of a strip mall, including a video rental store full of actual movie posters I doubt they paid for the rights to)

Watching this I can see an alternate past where one of my friends bought this at EB Games for $16, we stayed at his place until midnight playing it, and the avatars’ arm movements became a load bearing in-joke for years.

Somehow this was one of the final games made by the studio before they were reorganized into a new studio who would go on to make 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand, and yet the two games share zero staff. Were there gremlins in the building’s walls that were responsible for these games being Like This?

Timestamped for some very compelling trash action.

I think I have to apologize to The Order 1996, because I always gave it grief for only having 3 enemy types (+werewolves, who aren’t really an enemy, since you can’t fight them they just instant kill you if they touch you). I did not know Blood+ released a game with 1 enemy type.
