    My Dad bought me this PS2 game Onimusha Buraiden from Japan. I just recently found out that it will be released internationally as Onimusha Blade Warriors. I would love to play it but the game manual is entirely written in Japanese. How can I understand it? I tried e-mailing some Capcom websites, but they are quite very snobbish on these matters. I will try to e-mail Capcom Japan if I only knew how. Can anybody here share how to play the game? If only someone could share a way on how to recognize those japanese game menu buttons.... Expand

  1. A decent slash-'em-up but it'll disappoint Onimusha diehards thanks to a lack of the puzzles, plot and shopping for presents that made Onimusha 2 so brilliant. [JPN Import; PSM2]
  2. The superfluous story mode, unbalanced custom versus mode and technical issues relegate this title to a definite rent before you buy game.
  3. Everything that worked in the "Smash Bros" formula-- a huge cast of very different characters, big cartoony action with lots of goodies, and a lighthearted sense of fun-- is missing here.
