I guess we could vaguely tie this in to today's Halloween festivities, since Onechanbara is all about bikini-clad zombie killers. However, I'd like to instead point out that this is simply one of the stupidest videos I've seen all week. And I am a user of the Internet, so that says a lot.

However, that doesn't really matter because Onechanbara is coming to the Wii and Xbox 360 and it's effortlessly swaggered into my DO WANT list. I like hot chicks and I like hot chicks even more when they're killing zombies. That's all this game needs, really.

But man, what a stupid video.

Stupid indeed.
Not going to buy it, but still i hope it's good. Although, with hot chicks plus zombies, it's got to be.

I can only hope the Wii version is good, because I don't have an XB360. Do want, do want, do want...

Well cheese and hotdogs sound like a sure thing too, but afterwards are you really going to be happy?

The ad department that came up with that trailer needs to be rounded up, blindfolded, marched single-file outside of their offices, and made to kneel.

Then, they need to be hit in their faces with a flyswatter held by a man standing in the back of a passing pickup truck.

That is all.

Dude...WTF?

The idea for the commercial isn't terrible; just poorly executed.

You know, SINCE ZOMBIES DON'T TALK.

Also, this offends be because it's racist. Asians are trying to kill off all the Caucasian zombies.

Wasn't the worst commercial/trailer I've seen for a game. Duke Nukem Trilogy's trailer was a bit worse. I actually think that was a little boring though.

Hmm, not even the hot asian chicks can save a video? What kind of internet did I wake up to today?

I was expecting her to get a sword in one of the presents, or a pillow fight to break out, SOMETHING! I mean COME ON! that shit was lame.

@Corak:
Dude, I hate to sound borderline-racist, but here it is regardless: Asian chicks are to be used as tools for Western PR/Advertising campaigns, and they have a particular usage: look hot, sound smart, all at the same time. Anytime you break that rule, you are basically trying to drive a railroad spike with a flathead screwdriver, i.e. equaling something simultaneously awkward and visually/aurally jarring.

Maybe I'm wrong, as I have no real data/research/numbers to back that up. I do know what I've seen, and the trend I've noticed should be valid, if not proven completely.

I liked it. It was extremely cheesy, just like the games.
