Overview
Description

Bushido Blade is a groundbreaking fighting game that emphasizes realistic sword combat over traditional health bars. Set in feudal Japan, players wield authentic weapons and can defeat opponents with a single well-placed strike. The game offers both single-player missions and split-screen multiplayer, allowing friends to duel in intense, tactical battles that reward precision and timing.

Genji: Days of the Blade is an action‑packed hack and slash game for PlayStation 3, continuing the story of Yoshitune Minamoto and Benkei Musashibo as they battle a new, mysterious evil threatening Japan. Players can switch in real‑time between four distinct warriors, each with unique weapons and abilities, and unleash the powerful Kamui attacks to decimate foes. The game blends fast‑paced combat, platforming challenges, and light RPG elements, letting you collect Amahagane and Mashogane to upgrade stats and weapons while exploring both historic locations and fantastical realms.
