This is everything one could expect from an upgrade of the original PS2 classic. A very well-rounded gem that feels complete and delivers on almost every front. Genma Onimusha remains a classic masterpiece in gaming that once tried and tested, can be sure to hold a special place in your heart.

No, it doesn't redefine the game, but it does provide more depth to the title's action foundation. [Mar 2002, p.82]
It looks great, but it still feels like something I could have on my PS2. And that's what keeps Genma in the category of 'just another port', instead of being 'an astonishing new Xbox title'.
The bit with the insect queen probably ranks as the Most Disturbing Moment In A Game Ever. [XGamer Magazine]
All of this beauty doesn’t come without a price, however. Because the levels and their separate areas are so detailed, the game must take the time to load up each segment.
Capcom also wrecked the balance of the gameplay, making it a much more frustrating affair. [Spring 2002, p.86]
Oh gosh i was happy boy playing this masterpiece on my XBOX, xbox wasn't so popular here in Moscow Russia but i had it when i was 11-12yrs old. Beautiful portabilitty opportunities, nice graphics, and hell of a legendary game it was and still is! Onimusha series is definetly one of CAPCOM's best creations ever. Beautiful manly samurai story in Resident Evil style. Cheers!

I'll gladly recommend this to fans of the genre. It's really good. Graphics and frame rate are excellent, gameplay is tight (maybe a tad bit unforgiving) and the combat system is actually pretty good.
One thing I simply can't forgive is the controls. Using the d-pad for the movement, with NO OPTION to map the analog stick is bull****.
Still, a terrific game!
