In a nutshell:
The first major Japanese action game hits the Xbox 360 as you face down thousands of warriors at once with just a sword, a few special moves and some of the most outrageous graphics ever seen in a console game.
The lowdown:
With the Xbox 360 still not a proven success in Japan, Microsoft are always looking for new games to appeal to an oriental audience. Taking its cue from the massively successful Dynasty Warriors series this game pits seven different characters against whole armies of hundreds of warriors at a time. Depth of gameplay is not rely a forte here but the game does makes some important improvements to the basic formula with more aggressive enemy artificial intelligence and the ability to control allied troops. Much of the actual combat involves just jabbing madly at the controller but the awe-inspiring imagery this provokes is generally enough to help you forget how shallow it all is
Most exciting moment:
The entire raison d'tre for this game is its stunning battle effects and magic attacks. A simple swish of your sword cuts giant rainbow coloured swathes through the enemy as you juggle them in the air and smash them to the ground. Power up a special attack though and youre treated to a gigantic fireworks show of flying bodies and crackling magic.
Since you ask:
Although the game is developed by Korean team Phantagram, most famous for the Kingdom Under Fire series, the game has been overseen by legendary Japanese producer Tetsuya Mizuguchi who has been responsible for classics such as Space Channel 5, Rez and Lumines
