Way of the Samurai 3-tainment: Videos of People with Swords
Tubatic \| 11:44 PM on 09.01.2009	7 comments

As if you weren't already pumped and primed for Way of the Samurai 3 (which incidentally is coming out October 13th here in the states on both Xbox360 and PS3 - YOU CAN PREORDER THESE JAMS, MAN!), I've decided to fill the precious blogosphere with videos from WOTS 1 and 2, as well as some choice promo stuff for the third installment. Sometimes seeing is believing, and I really want you to believe. So, see!

Opening Sequence - Way of the Samurai 1

The first time you hear the main theme of the Way of the Samurai series. Really sets the tone just right for what the series is.

Opening Sequence and Attract Loop - Way of the Samurai 2

OK. Not really as amazing an opening. The attract loop is good though. Yes, those are weapons and moves you can acquire in the game (don't forget: moves are directly connected to the weapon in this series)

Opening Sequence - Zone of the Enders 2

Its awesome, just watch it.

Commercial for Way of the Samurai 3

Clocking in at 7:53... what is this I don't even... Its no real life Mega Man, but its... yeah. Worth watching, even if you skip through a bit. This is totally Destructainment worthy. I mean... it doesn't even show the game! Kane and Lynch get more face time in this commercial...seriously.

Japanese Trailer - Way of the Samurai 3

You get to see some gameplay, including non-weapon combat and what looks to be some brutal quick kills (hopefully from the tutorial...)

Way of the Samurai 3. North American localization. October 13th. Both platforms. You know what to do.

Loved the first one , I'm definitely picking this up!

Palidi

Well...officially canceled my Tekken 6 pre-order.

Unfortunately, still don't know if I'll have the money for this by the time the game rolls around...T_T

Palidi

Oh, btw, props for posting the most epic game intro evar(the ZOE2 opening). Still get chills when I watch it even after all this time *^.^*

Tubatic

@Palidi

I've honestly put that game disc in sometimes just to watch that intro. So good!

I played the first one, and it became an instant classic for me. I really loved it. The second one I never got a chance to play because it is impossible to find around here, but from what I heard, that might not be such a bad thing. I had no idea the third iteration was being localized though, I'm super pumped. SWEEEEET. Thanks for this post!

Stevil

@T-Rav: The 2nd one wasn't that bad. It was slow and some of the tasks set by the locals were either too tough or too obscure. The game kind of required you to play through multiple times before it let you get to the good stuff, but once you 'levelled up' it was a fun game to experiment with.

Am I doing it right?

Players can elect to summon "cartoony" versions of bats, bombs, guns, and flamethrowers. These types of items can be used to destroy objects or even other summoned items (e.g., a club can be used to hit an animal; steak can be attached to a baby to attract lions; rockets can be lobbed at a man).

"Right after getting back to Japan, [Miyamoto] suddenly said: "You know we're including golf now." Apparently he'd stated in an interview that this time round golf shots would be determined by the backswing, even though at that time a golf game didn't exist in any shape or form!"

"Just because u like a game doesn't mean u have to give it a high score"
-excerpt from the epic trolling on the Prototype review, inFamous/Protoype Wars, June 2009

Well [InsertBloggerNameHere], I'm personally indifferent about you, which is ok.

But, the posting regulars at the site will generally get a little twisty about such frequent, light on content posts. Since everything you post in a C-Blog (Community, Blog) hits the front page immediately, people like to see things there of substance (Longer reviews, different from normal opinions, pretty pictures). Otherwise, the effect is that your light-on-content post pushes down posts of people that put lots and lots of effort into a high quality blog post.

Atheistium, ThisYearsPink, Yoj1mb0, Thefil (sort of), and the early works of Conrad Zimmerman are examples of posters that clearly put a good amount of effort into their posts, and contribute interesting stuff to the site through the C-Blogs.

Soooo, its not because you're ten, specifically.
