 Onimusha - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
However, there are some returning characters from other Onimusha games such as Saika Magoichi, Ankokuji Ekei, Fuuma Kotaro, and Mitsuhide Akechi.
Onimusha (Japanese: 鬼武者, literally "Oni Warrior") is a PlayStation 2 action-adventure game series by Capcom.
Two new songs by Ayumi Hamasaki, one titled Startin' and the other rainy day, will be featured as the opening and ending themes for the game respectively in the Japan version, the opening theme have been removed from the westers versions (unless the player selects the game system to 'Japanese' in the options).

 Onimusha 3: Demon Siege Review
Onimusha 3 isn't all puzzles, although it is a large part of the game the bulk of the game is hack and slashing.
While Onimusha 3 isn't exactly a hard game (unless you don't absorb souls), there are points in the game where you will have to use different weapons.
Especially at the start of the game you're going to be fighting the same demons over and over again.

 Onimusha
Onimusha is also structured in such a way that at certain points, you have to kill and destroy loads of creatures in order to gain a new level, this is also very annoying as this is where the game gets a bit frustrating as you feel like you’re going around in circles for no reason.
Onimusha’s gameplay may owe a bit too much to the Resident Evil series which also means some of those game’s problems have translated as well, but it still has a good mix of strategy and action with some RPG elements that should please most action gamers.
In the epic opening cinema of Onimusha Warlords, players are given an elaborate glimpse into the world of the past din what is perhaps the most elaborate and beautiful CGI cinema in gaming history to date.

 IGN: Onimusha: Warlords Review
Onimusha is a very good game that controls nicely and has some of the coolest looking effects in any PS2 game to date.
With a relatively short game such as Onimusha, I played through the game twice, and seeing the cut-scenes without being able to skip them was a drag.
Onimusha controls with the digital pad for movement, Square functions as attack, Circle absorbs souls, X is action/open door, decide, and Triangle is special move/cancel.

 Onimusha 2: Samurai's Destiny - PS2
Onimusha 2 doesn’t just consist of fighting, killing, and more fighting, there are also several spots that require you to use your noggin’ to complete a puzzle in order to progress where you need to go next in the game.
Never playing the original Onimusha: Warlords before picking this game up was for sure going to lead to some surprises for me, and boy did this game run a touchdown on that.
So since I missed the first Onimusha: Warlords, and also the X-Box port Genma Onimusha, I told myself that I wasn’t going to miss the next Onimusha game, which turned out to be Onimusha 2: Samurai’s Destiny.

 Gaming Target - PlayStation 2: Onimusha 3: Demon Siege - Review
Onimusha 3 plays the same as its predecessors — only this time, the game is entirely in 3D, with no pre-rendered backgrounds to hamper things.
Capcom has struggled recently, with many games disappointing, but Onimusha 3 is not one of them.
After the success and quality of the original 2 games, Onimusha 3: Demon Siege is the end — Capcom intends for this one to be the finale of the series, wrapping up a pre-planned trilogy.

 Onimusha: Warlords
Each character in Onimusha contains about 10,000 polygons each, to put it simple, if one person was to make this game solo, it'd would take that person about a lifetime to complete.
Many titles were missing such as a Resident Evil game, while one is on it's way, we get to play the great game of Onimusha: Warlords.
The only draw back was the missed dialog, which often did not match to the characters lip movement, but this could easily go un-noticed while witnessing the beauty of the CG scenes.

 PS2 Game Reviews: Onimusha: Warlords
Onimusha is much like DC2, it plays nothing like the game, but Capcom took similar steps with Onimusha as they did with Dino Crisis 2.
But glaring at Square's The Bouncer right in the eyes is Capcom's samurai survival-horror game, Onimusha: Warlords.
The princess has been kidnapped, and like any other game when it comes down to a situation like this, you Samanosuke Akechi (the "U" is silent in the first name), must go out and rescue her.

 Onimusha 3: Demon Siege - PlayStation 2 Review
Onimusha 3, though, must be good enough to feel different than the TWO games before it; a mighty task.
However, all of the fighting in the game (and there is much of it) doesn't make up for the boredom that comes with the game and level design.
Every Onimusha game begins with an absolutely beautiful CG opening, and the one in Onimusha 3 is the best one this reviewer has ever seen, hands down.

 Review: Onimusha 2: Samurai's Destiny for PS2 on Gamepro.com.
Onimusha 2 takes place some time after the first game, and it introduces a new samurai, Jubei Yagyu.
Onimusha 2 brings back most of the good stuff from the first game - swords imbued with wind and lightning - and adds them to an arsenal of new weapons, such as a spear and giant hammer.
Death and taxes may be the only certainties in life, but the video game world has its own rules - such as for every successful game, there will be successive games.

 Genma Onimusha for XBO video game review and cheats
I beat the original PS2 game Onimusha: Warlords, and while the game itself wasn't terribly long or difficult, the game was done exceptionally well on all fronts.
In Genma Onimusha, the whole point of the game is to not only rescue Princess Yuki, but to defeat the insidious plot that is currently being hatched by the demon horde.
Genma Onimusha is not much more then a port from the very impressive PS2 game Onimusha: Warlords.

 Amazon.com: Onimusha Warlords (GH) for PlayStation 2Onimusha: Warlords: Computer & Video Games
Onimusha: warlords is one of my favorite games for ps2.
Onimusha: Warlords probably won't win any awards for groundbreaking gameplay, but the fast-paced action promises to overload the senses with more than enough stimuli to notice.
Set during the medieval period, Onimusha: Warlords is a survival horror game that puts you in the difficult position of having to save a kidnapped princess from the evil General Nobanaga.

 Genma Onimusha Review - Xbox
While the Xbox version of Onimusha does deliver the promised double-length gameplay, it's still easily a game that can be won during a typical rental period.
The most obvious changes to gameplay Genma Onimusha won't take long to "smack you in the head." What I mean is that Genma Onimusha not only brings you more enemies, but enemies that pack a more powerful punch.
The story of Onimusha places the player in 16th century Japan, but with a fantasy influence and an ominous feel.

 Onimusha 3 (2004) (VG)
Onimusha 3 was great with the story telling, but I thought it was a little too much like Metal Gear, as in you play for a few minutes watch cutscenes twice as long, but then again thats what i played to see.
I've beaten the first two games, and still play them today, but unlike most casual gamers, i have a habit of analyzing great games.
from U.S. I went out and bought this game the first day it was out and played it nonstop.I'm not usually one to do such things but to me, if it's an Onimusha game, It's worth the time.

 PS2 Previews: Onimusha
Onimusha takes time during Feudal Japan, in the mid-1,500s, there have been a few attempts by another empire to take over Japan.
To date this is the most seen in any Playstation 2 game, and just by looking at the game, it's easy to tell that the number is certainly not inflated to any extent.
Yeah we know that we haven't updated our Onimusha preview in ages, so here I am, 10 days before the release of the game, providing you future owners of Onimusha the latest info on graphics and gameplay.

 GameSpy: Onimusha Tactics Preview
From all appearances, Onimusha Tactics is quite intentionally the lightest tactics game on the market, eschewing features common (and sometimes desirable) in other successful GBA tactics games like Final Fantasy Tactics Advance and Tactics Ogre.
Clearly a simpler game than others bearing the "tactics" moniker, Onimusha Tactics could be a good game for those interested in tactical gameplay, but are put off by Final Fantasy Tactics' apparent complexity.
With what is perhaps the tactics genre's most beloved feature gone and replaced by a handful of story characters, perhaps this is the biggest reason the game may not appeal to genre fans.

 GAF - News - Capcom's countdown revealed: new Onimusha
However I thought Onimusha 3 was great and easily the best of the three (gotta love that opening movie), but can they make a game better than its predecessor(s) without going next-gen? I wouldn't be surprised if it's just a hasty rehash of the previous game, rather than the "changed playstyle" they're talking about.
Update: It seems that the game will be called Onimusha: Dawn of Dreams.
-The game takes place after Onimusha 3 and is set in 1598.

 Onimusha 2: Samurai's Destiny Review - PlayStation 2
Even new players will be surprised by the size of some of the bosses, and their different attack styles.
I took my time, and there were things that I could have done faster, but even so, this game is definitely longer than the first one.
When you combine the game's new, expansive story with the new levels and the unique gameplay mechanics, Onimusha 2 has one of the best concepts for a sequel.

 Onimusha: Warlords Review - PS2 - Thunderbolt Games
Despite all of the similarities, Onimusha manages to feel like a totally different game because of its focus on fast-paced combat.
There’s plenty of strong points and a couple of weak points to Onimusha, but by far the weakest is the short length.
While the plot is lacking, most of the gameplay fare much better.

 GameSpy: Onimusha: Dawn of Dreams Interview
With this new Onimusha game, what we have done is place an emphasis on more complex gameplay, and that is shown by the ability to switch characters -- there is an element of strategy there -- as well as being able to power up characters and weapons in different ways.
When we decided that we didn't want to put time travel in this game, it was because we wanted to create a game where you're in the same general area, and within that area there is more to do.
GS: Since the storyline of the first three Onimusha games wrapped up pretty neatly at the end of 3, is Dawn of Dreams the beginning of a new trilogy?

Thankfully, you'll spend most of the game playing as Samanosuke.
Along the way, they further refined the gameplay, added new features and enemies, and took what was already good game and made it great.
The game is a combination of action and puzzle sequences (although, much like Devil May Cry, the focus is primarily on fighting), and the controls are tight and responsive.
