Switching records is a pretty cool part of the game and really does mix things up quite a bit. Samurai Champloo is very much tied to its hip-hop soundtrack, and in the case of the game the music actually dictates the fighting move set you currently have available.
You're able to assign two current records at any one point, and flicking the right stick will switch between the two active records and change your moves.
Basically it's a shift in your combo tree and available attacks. Essentially, you have the same individual moves on most any record, but each record strings them together in a different manner. Major changes might be that one record features long strings of heavy attacks while another focuses on quick attacks. On top of this, some of the records give you attribute bonuses for using them, like increased defense or what have you.
Since you're able to acquire new records throughout the course of the game either via purchasing or earning them, you'll constantly have new attack combos to perform and even new music to boot. It does pretty well to change up the feel of the game the whole way through, and the fact that there isn't really a definitive "best" or "worst" record out there, managing which records you use feels like more of a customized experience rather than something of a necessary upgrade in order to progress.
It all works pretty well. As you'll constantly wind up with new moves to use, in order to help things feel less random you'll see your current attack string featured at the top of the screen. One thing that amplifies this is the hyper attacks you'll earn. By building up your tension meter by basically slashing the crap out of folks, you'll be able to trigger the hyper attack mode by executing a certain randomly selected combo.
This sounds fine, but since the combo changes, you'll constantly refer to the top of the screen to see which combo you need to pull off and simply press the appropriate buttons as you work up the combo tree until it's unleashed. In other words, you'll be focusing on the combo tree and not the combat. One really cool part of the combat however is its counter system.
Should you and one of your opponents attempt to strike each other simultaneously, you'll be presented with a quick mini-game where anywhere from one to four of the face buttons will appear on-screen. If you press any of the shown buttons in time, you'll initiate a counter-attack and take out the enemy, the type of counter depending upon which button you pressed.
If you miss, the enemy will counter you instead. With all of these cool and bad segments of the fighting system, it really is what the game relies on for fun as it's an extremely linear experience where you'll simply wander down a predefined path and kill whoever appears in front of you. Unfortunately, the enemy AI is really quite dumb and will basically stand around and wait for you to kill it. Luckily the combat system is rather fun, if imperfect. Still though, if you're looking for more meat to the game rather than killing foe after foe and witnessing extremely odd moments, this isn't the game for you.
You're Good to Go! Latest on Samurai Champloo: Sidetracked. Samurai Champloo: Sidetracked Gameplay Movie 10 Demon's surround you from every direction, only one option remains, stab em all! While the Director's Cut is also available for the PS4, the PS5 version comes with a couple of noteworthy improvements that take advantage of the hardware's unique features.
An upgrade is not the only reason to be excited because Sucker Punch is also expanding Jin's story through an expansion set on Iki Island. Ghost of Tsushima is among the best samurai games of all time, but there are a few other great titles fans can turn to once they complete Sucker Punch's masterpiece. In terms of gameplay or era, Total War: Shogun 2 and Ghost of Tsushima share basically nothing in common.
Despite their many differences, they are two of the most complete and defining titles featuring samurai. Set in feudal Japan, Total War: Shogun 2 casts the player as a warlord fighting for control of the country, with the bulk of the game containing eight factions. Creative Assembly's franchise has produced some of the greatest strategy games of all time , and Shogun 2 sits among Total War 's best releases.
Total War: Shogun 2: Fall of the Samurai jumps forward to the Bakumatsu era and is also worth playing.
While it doesn't reach the heights of a No More Heroes or killer7 , Sidetracked still oozes personality and charm. Its core beat 'em up mechanics are shallow but fun, and the game ties them into Samurai Champloo 's iconic hip-hop soundtrack. Sidetracked , unfortunately, loves to periodically kill its own momentum by throwing out a mini-game that requires eliminating a hundred enemies. Nevertheless, this is a solid samurai game. The show follows a samurai, Jack, who is sent to the future by the evil Aku; naturally, the soft-spoken protagonist sets out to cut the demon in half and return back to his time.
Built on the foundations of titles such as Devil May Cry and Bayonetta , Samurai Jack: Battle Through Time is a stylish hack and slash game that manages to offer a respectable challenge. It doesn't quite have the depth to justify too many repeat playthroughs, but those seeking a cartoonish samurai adventure with a twist should find a lot to enjoy here.
As the first entry in the series, Onimusha: Warlords may not be as refined as the later sequels. That said, as it was released on all consoles last year as a quick remaster, it remains the easiest to track down and play in It is simply the Resident Evil formula, but with samurai in the feudal era of Japan fighting demons instead of zombies.
It is as cool as it sounds. Capcom needs to give Resident Evil a break and return to this franchise. Set just after Oda Nobunaga's epic war with Imagawa Yoshimoto in , known as the Battle of Okehazama, players take the role of a warrior encountering demons drawn by the blood-soaked battlefield. Locations of brutal conflicts in Japanese folklore often draw malevolent forces tied to the rage and hatred brought about by war. It's not exactly clear why, but the series received an adaptation as a video game which was released for the Playstation 2.
It's called Samurai Champloo: Sidetracked and although the story of the game is original, Bandai has come out as saying that it bears no real relation to much that happens in the series. It's a beat-em-up type game, although it could have just as convincingly been a rhythm game. While it got pretty mixed reviews, it has decent replayability since each character has a different ending.
While the show is chock full of references to the Edo period and tons of other references to western culture, the most prominent one is the references to hip-hop. One of the coolest ones is Mugen's fighting style, which blends breakdancing with Karate in a really interesting way. There's also the masterful soundtrack, and the bleeps in a lot of the dubs are record-scratches.
While the show started out as an anime production originally, there's also a manga that was adapted from the show that covers the course of the show but also introduces new content which Watanabe said was supposed to be reminiscent of bonus features on a DVD.
