I'm hoping MSFT will have a proper hack and slash game next gen. I have my doubts since that genre is on the wane, and Too Human didn't exactly light the charts on fire. With all this secrecy I am interested in what they have in store for us.

Besides God of War pretty much all other good hack and slash games are made by third party studios. I'm hoping the Onimusha series gets revived next generation.

That's true, and I also hope Onimusha will make a return - Be it with Samanosuke or a new character. Have you ever played Otogi on the original Xbox? That game was awesome! I would like a sequel on next gen hardware.

No sounds like a good game though I did play a fair amount of Sega games on the original X-Box I have Shenmue 2, Sega GT 2000, Jet Set Radio Future and Crazy Taxi 3 for it.

Look it up when you have time. People used to say it was the Xbox's answer to Shinobi on the PS2. Thre are similarities between the two. It was a very hard game.
