Asura's Wrath is a brilliant game. Worth buying! Zavvi all the way!! :)

Asura's Wrath is very good.

Excellent Game!

As written in the title, this game is epic. This is more than a game, its like playing an anime, full of quick-time events. The graphic level is not so high, but is secondary in a game like this, where the important things are the game play and the story. For me, Asura's Wrath is the best game I played during the first half of 2012. Is this game worth buying? YES!

Great game! but just a game? Asura's wrath is also a manga animation! Wonderful story, musics, and graphics!

Asura's is one of the most amazing game I've play in year and with a great story behind it.

This game is great, I would rate it 8/10 Basicly it is an action game, but it collects different game type. The main part is a sort of beat em up in which you have to fight several enemies until you’ll fill a damage gauge, hence you’ll have a quick time event in order to defeat the stage or the boss. The fights won’t be too technical: you have a light attack, a strong attach, a quick shot, plus jump e flip command ( usefull to avoid attack ) but there’s no block ! You can create some simple combos but nothing to technical. In addiction when you fill a half of the damage gauge, you can activate ( for limited time ) an increasing of your power. The battle against the bosses are really beautifull, they may last for more stages and there will be some bosses really huge ! In addiction to beat em up stages, sometimes there will be some sort of shoot em up, really exciting, with the screen fool of items ( it reminded me of Treasure’s SIN and PUNISHEMNT ). The story is an important part of this game, it is a misture of fantasy and asiatics myths ( for instance one of the enemy you’ll fight with the most of the time is a sort of Buddha … ) and it is carried on, both by movies ( with the game engine ) and static pictures and text . Graphically the game is really good ( not the state of the art of PS3 ) but really good, especially for the character ( less for the landscapes ): polygonal models are complex, whit good textures in bright colours ( the design of the main character remind a bit Street Fighter’s ). As a fan of action game, I cannot say it has some defects, maybe it is a little short ( I completed it at normal level in less then 8 hours ) but in the other hand it encourages you to replay the game ( when I completed the game, it told me to complete at last 5 chapter with S rank to unlock a new chapter ! )
