I picked up Muramasa: The Demon Blade today. I've heard it's a good game....anyone here play it?

I played a bit of it, and will have to get back to it some time. If only it wasn't on the Wii...Originally Posted by fahoumh
I really enjoy it though. It demands quite a bit more skill to play successfully than Vanillaware's previous 2D action RPG Odin Sphere.
I am addicted to Vanillaware games. I adore the art style (hand drawn ftw!), love the mechanics of their games, enjoy the stories immensely, and the voice work is top-notch too.
...and I own both Momohime and Velvet (Odin Sphere) figurines.
Greatly anticipating Grand Knights History (being localized to the PSP for both NA and Europe) and Dragon's Crown (for PS3 and the Vita). A Vita will be worth buying for those two titles alone.

One of the few games that makes me not regret buying a Wii.
I just played Momohime's side of the story though... will need to return one of this days to play the rest.
Its a pain playing with a wiimote though... I never bought a classic controler pro
Anyway... I'm currently playing LA Noire. Beautiful game.
I'm playing Gears of War 3. Typical Gears game. Fun but frustrating.
“For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?”
Frustrating?
Your squadmates run too far ahead and engage enemies while you're busy looking for collectibles, your squadmates run in front of your line of fire, your squadmates don't come revive you when you're hurt. All frustrating gameplay elements.

Haven't experienced any of that.
Playing on casual or hardcore mode? And are you bothering to look for collectible items? If not, then you can actually keep up with your squad.

Insane, and yes I look around.
Ahh, tricky tricky you. Insane mode is actually easier than hardcore mode. The grubs die easier and they explode when you shoot them, you rarely have to go finish them off. Downsides: boss fights seem harder, and you don't get revived when you get downed. I finished the game on hardcore and am trying insane now. I'm not looking forward to the final boss fight on insane mode, but so far the game has been a lot easier than in hardcore mode.
The game doesn't have the feel that 2 had. 2 had that desperate, humanity's-last-hope kind of feel to it, and that made the game more exciting. I guess knowing 3 was the last in the trilogy, you were bound to save humanity, so that took away from the story for me.

Tricky? What? Are you implying I didn't go through hardcore first?
I finished hardcore in about 2 runs; didn't experience any of the issues you had.
How many collectibles did you find? If you had spent any appreciable amount of time looking for them, you would have experienced all that and more.

What do you mean pain? Lazy bum...
I played my cousins wii a while back, shit was super fun. I was all over the place with that remote, i'm buying one when it's like 50 euros
Let me rephrase... Its a pain playing a side-scrolling game (with no WiiMote functionality) with a WiiMote.
Burn it with fire
I'm on Act 5 and I had my ass handed to me by that giant green mountain god, Ippondatara....twice. I think I may have to level grind for a bit before I reattempt that boss. I guess this is the part of the game where button-mashing will no longer cut it.
The game is very pretty and I'm starting to get into the story but I found it a little difficult to follow at first. It is a pretty fun game and has really drawn me in. I've actually put aside Metroid: Other M for this game.
I've been playing with my Gamecube controller...I don't think I could stand to play this with a WiiMote.
LA Noire is a good looking game and the story was pretty good but the twist with Phelps toward the end really left a bad taste in my mouth and it didn't really make any sense to me.
Dude... I'm currently playing it... don't tell about twists...
Sorry, I hope I didn't spoil it. :-$
Playing the Battlefield 3 beta.
I expect to get my ass handed to me until I remember how to play FPS games. Should be fun. Minor downer is that it is Rush mode and not tried and true Conquest mode.
the biggest problem ist that the map is infantry only and the first spot is so far away that it feels like Arica Harbor... but as I mentioned, without vehicles to get back to the front... grrrraaarg
