Yes or no?

I've heard it's shorter than Devil May Cry. Please tell me it isn't as Devil May Cry is far far far too short itself.

Mind you, bare in mind that Onimusha would be a GAD prize. I wouldn't be paying.

Onimusha: Warlods is definitly worth it's price tag, and it lasts for just under 12 hours, but I am sure that others have completed it in a much shorter time. The reason why I finished it in around 12 hours, which is quite decent for a game of this genre, is becuase I like to spend time exploring the environments. I think that when you explore parts of a game, it will show that your money was well-spent.

The controls are pants, In combat your character goes for the nearest enemy so when your fighting a big bad boss dude and all these ninji's are flying about everywhere he goes for them and you lose control, Thats the reason I never made it passed the dark realm.

It's more similar to Resi, yes. Still great though. The controls are slightly easier.

Does it have awful controls like Resi.

Slow gameplay?

Yeah but most of those were DVDs. Not won many games.

And since basically all my wins were for film reviews so I could only ever claim films, it got a bit annoying sometimes.

But the rules have changed now so I can claim a game even for a film review. Fantastic!

Although that means I will probably never claim a DVD again.....which is bad. Because I like films more than games. It is just that games cost more. :-D
