Can't wait to pick up. Btw, this is a $50 game right?

nice, can't wait to play it, although my next gaming purchase is not any time soon since i got a lot to play now, LKS, Conduit and WSR

This game looks more fun in screenshots than it does in gameplay videos...

I dont remember a Wii game getting 10 on graphics! I wanna pick it up if it ever gets a PAL release that is, oh well...

Cool that the Wii is widening its Library with some highquality non-Nintendo japanese games.

For those who care, this game also got an "8" in Nintendo Power.

Mmmm.. i wonder, can the wii win a battle of 2D-Games against the HD twins? i think creating an 2D HD game is a waste, the Wii has enough graphic potention and control options for creating sufficient 2D games, and that includes fighting games, shoot em up, plataformer etc... imagine if all those "dead" genre games were reborn on the Wii, it would be great, we are seeing this with Muramasa, then a Boy and his Blon and then NSMBW, whats next? Castlevania origins, Kirby this can become the best generation since the SNES if that happens

I'm pretty sure both Ramuji and I have been saying that this game rocks and people should pick it up since it came out in Japan lol. =P There was this whole thread about it too.

More reason why the magazine sucks!

Explaining the 20 hours:

There are two characters taking each about 6-7 hours on a playthorugh. You are awarded 2 different xp points to buy new swords, on my first gril playthrough it wasn't nearly possible to get 50% of the swords for her. To get the final swards you need to play both stories.

The gameplay had some very short backtracking issues and the combat mechanics could use some more buttons (it's all the way 1 button to do almost everything), but the swordswapping, item using and special sword technique using can mix things up.

Comparing this game to MadWorld, i have to say MadWorld had more intense action moments and motion controlls, but had some let downs from time to time. Now Murasama was constantly delivering good quality fun without these letdowns. So for me they are equal, althaugh Murasama has more value.
