Long ago in the realm of Shinkoku, eight deities known as "The Eight Guardian Generals" battled to protect civilization from a destructive force known only as Gohma. Asura was one of the most prominent of this group. During the victory celebration, the Emperor of Shinkoku was assassinated in a sinister plot and the blame was placed on Asura. In the middle of the commotion, Asura's wife was also murdered and his daughter kidnapped. With even his brother-in-law and rival Yasha turning against him, Asura was banished from Shinkoku. Awoken by a voice after 12,000 years, Asura vows revenge on all those who have betrayed him.

| 46 of 52 people found the following review helpful  Asura is a breath of fresh air!, = Fun: This review is from: Asura's Wrath (Video Game) This game is unlike anything I've ever played before... it certainly isn't perfect, but it's unique, visually splendid, and probably the most daring effort at a big budget title that this generation of consoles has seen. It had me laughing throughout (it's extremely funny... not always by design, I suspect, but that's beside the point). Oh, and did I mention that it's UNIQUE?If you're looking for something different, this is it. It's not like "God of War", it's not like "Bayonetta", and it's not like "MGS". It's just... bizarre, weird, and downright quirky. In a good way, in my humble opinion. However... DO NOT buy this game if you can't stand QTE (Quick Time Events... the timed button presses made popular by "Resident Evil 4" and "God of War"). QTE... there's a LOT of it in this game... undoubtedly a world record, as a matter of fact! Also... DO NOT buy this game if you can't stand anime... we just might be looking at another world record here,...

And I appreciate what the makers of Asura's Wrath is trying to do. A simple summary for the game: The setting is old world gods mixed with Sci-Fi. The story is about a demigod cast away who vows to make things right his way. Gameplay is nothing like what we are used to. It is an action adventure with shooting elements and a large amount of violent melee. Asura does not have a health bar, but the player aims to fill the rage bar so as to perform a finishing move to proceed. A lot of QTE or PDE (player dependent events) is required. It is not what everyone is used to. I hear comparisons with God of War a lot but besides the rage, nothing else is similar. The player does not have health bars and magic points. That is why most players get angry and make a bad review or comment. And players who...

It reminds me of a modern day Dragon's lair with more involvement. My only gripe was that it was over too soon. I also think it would be cooler to have you die in crazy ways if you hit the wrong button or don't react in time when prompted. Other than that, not much more bad I can say about this game. I was enthralled from start to finish. |
