Sengoku Basara Samurai Heroes
Amazon.com
The producer of Devil May CryTM 4, Hiroyuki Kobayashi, brings you the newest installment to the BASARA series, Sengoku BASARA: Samurai Heroes, on the PlayStation®3 and Wii. A fun, action-packed and accessible title set during a tumultuous period of Japanese history, Sengoku BASARA: Samurai Heroes follows players as they fight their way to the dramatic battle of Sekigahara. Players will take control of more than a dozen samurai heroes, each wielding their own unique weapon, in huge battles against hundreds of opponents that grow ever more challenging. On their journey to the final battle, players will learn how to unleash spectacular BASARA Arts and utilize Hero Time to wipe out as many enemies as possible.



Synopsis
Victory in battle will not only deliver new territories but the natural resources of that region, which can be used to create various accessories that make heroes and their weapons more powerful. Each unique playable character is aided by a supporting general who makes it easier to lead the player’s army. Players will see the battle from the perspective of each hero with the ultimate goal of re-writing history to rule all of 16th century Japan.
In the dynamic new “Heroes’ Story” mode player’s decisions impact history. Based on choices made by the player, friends become enemies and enemies become friends, creating a whole new history. This new strategic element to the game forces players to fight for control of the battlefield and ultimately for the fate of the nation.
In Sengoku BASARA: Samurai Heroes it’s not just samurai heroes you will compete with on the battlefield. Each enemy has other means of attacking, including some gigantic weapons such as The Rising Sun machine, Motochika’s latest devastating weapon that crushes everything in its path and the Death Carriage which uses its blazing fast maneuverability and fire launcher to bring enemies crashing down.

Well it certainly IS similar to the DW games however I think I enjoy the cartoon look better. When I started the game I quickly plowed through the campaign and enjoyed every minute of it. There is some good variety in many of the levels along with hidden paths and bonus objectives. As each character has multiple stories to go through I'd say the replayabiltiy is quite high.
When I realized I was going to finish the game without fulling upgrading my character I was a little confused at first, but that's not how the game works. Each playthrough is saved and each run gives you more XP to continue upgrading your powers and more items to upgrade your accessories. In fact, it is entirely possible to playthrough the game on easy once or twice with the same character to level him up in order to be strong enough to take on the higher difficulty settings.
For the price Amazon is asking and for the great gameplay included in this game, I dare say it is my new favorite DW type game (at least until I can get DW:Gundam 3).
However the playstyle and general you use to do this is where the game becomes varied. All playable characters are fairly unique and rely on certain mechanics to flourish. For example one character, Kanbe, is stuck with a ball and a chain attached to his prison shackles, which hampers his speed and movement greatly while giving him devastating blows with his ball and chain. Then there are also characters like the ninja Kotaro, who flies in the air at high speeds, focusing on disappearing into rapid air combos. 14 other characters fill every other space in between them and beyond. Not to mention a lot of the character designs and attacks are super badass in my opinion (SUPLEXES THAT CAUSE MINI TORNADOES).
Aside from different gameplay mechanics, there's not much else to Samurai Heroes aside from each character's multipath story mode, in where some of the plotlines are just plain silly or predictable at times (which isn't too bad, but it's all very anime. I didn't mind it much, but take it as you will), and character customization to mix things up.
Overall, game is fairly fun, while being a repetitive formula. Possibly a title that will eventually either lose your attention fast or keep you going for hours, just to see how the next new character plays like. Additionally, if you don't mind the game being completely in Japanese, Sengoku Basara 3 Utage is a more improved version of Samurai Heroes (Utage offers many of the non-playable characters you fight against for play, around 30 total characters, and a few more side modes). As such, if you can navigate Japanese menus well or don't mind needing translations, import Utage for the full experience. Otherwise, Samurai Heroes will still fill anyone's pallet for anime-like, feudal Japanese warfare, whether it be for minutes or hours.
As with other games such as samerai warriors, dynasty warriors you can set the difficulty level. Build up the items to boost your weapons power; attack, defense, etc. I enjoy the homing missle item "Birds of Paradise" for my girl. The controls are the same as the other games in the series which makes it nice.
GAMEPLAY: This is not only the most important part but the best part of this game. When I started playing this game it actually felt more like Devil May Cry 4, a game I also love. Capcom did great here especially putting amazing depth and variety into each character you play as! YES!
SOUND: Awesome J-Rock, fighting music and well produced sounds do great to imerse you in a fantasy of Japan's Sengoku era.
GRAPHICS: So I actually first played it on the Wii over the PS3 after lots of specific comparisons. For a Wii game this looks amazing again thank you Capcom for the amazing level of production values. Aside from the difference in resolution they look quite similar not to say it looks bad on the PS3 because it really doesn't but it does look absolutely amazing on the Wii!
Another major plus with this series is it's characters they're all really unique, deep, lovable and interesting, my favorites are always changing! Anyone who gives this game a shot will surely be pleased at the least! Tried to keep this all short thanks for reading!
