Afro Samurai is an upcoming video game for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 to be released on January 27, 2009, based on the manga and anime series of the same name. It was announced in the February 2008 issue of play magazineand is being developed and published by Namco Bandai Games.

As with the anime series, the title character is voiced by Samuel L. Jackson and features a cel-shaded animation style. Though it is a hack and slash game, the "fighting is a bit more strategic" and the player will be able to block and use combos. The enemies will respond by rolling, ducking and hopping over the player's blade and occasionally using body orifices to catch the weapons.

Follow Afro Samurai as he fights to become the number one warrior, a title currently held by Justice, the man who killed Afro's father when he was a child. The game follows the plot of the original series with added material and background for fans and new comers alike. Blood is beautiful in this hip hop infused action adventure as Samuel L. Jackson reprises his role as Afro and Ninja Ninja. A striking art style gives Afro Samurai a truly unique look and feel across beautifully animated open environments as he wages war against his adversaries to become number one. Using an innovative gameplay system, enemy AI is affected by the beat of the musical score produced by RZA of Wu-Tang Clan fame. These dynamic battles ensure stylized encounters throughout the game that affect the overall tone of gameplay. Slice and dismember opponents as Afro acrobatically leaps from one location to the next, interacting with anything and everything in the environment to help him on his journey.

Ao início pareceu-me um simples hack and slash, nada que suscitasse muito interesse a não ser pelo estilo visual, principalmente porque nunca vi nenhum episódio da série em que se baseia. Depois de ver alguns vídeos e as últimas previews, parece vir a ser um bom jogo e vale a pena ficar de olho nele.

Uma das features que certamente despertará a atenção, vai ser esta:


IGN disse:
Taking its cues from the anime series, Afro Samurai recreates blood-splattered dismemberment in grisly detail. Kill Bill's huge sword fight in the Japanese restaurant has nothing on this!

It's the feature gaming fans have been crying out for in sword combat and we're stoked to report Afro Samurai is the first game ever to feature the ability to cut enemies to pieces in an infinite number of ways. Wherever your sword hits on an enemy's body, they'll be cut in two. Slice them horizontally across the body and their chest will slide apart amidst a fountain of blood and their arms will also both be severed and fall to the ground. It looks incredibly cool.

Let us be totally clear on this. Anywhere your sword passes it will sever body parts down to the exact pixel you hit. Everything from heads, torsos, feet, scalps, hands and even ears can be sliced off in an explosion of blood. There are absolutely no preset or scripted animations when you're cutting enemies. It's like GTAIV's Euphoria engine but for body parts. We love this game.

Têm aqui a preview completa da IGN e também podem ver aqui o novo trailer mostrado na E3.
 
No RE5 e FarCry 2 houve alguma gente melindrada por se matarem alguns africanos e a personagem principal ser branca, vamos lá a ver se os asiáticos do extremo oriente não se vão melindrar também com esta situação aborrecida... (sim, estou a ser irónico...)

fora isto o jogo até parece estar bastante engraçado.
 
É parecido com o No More Heroes...

Parece-me porreiro, se conseguir prometer com o que diz...

Gosto muito de jogos em Cell Shading e gostei da parte de ser gore, o único senão é não ter gostado muito do anime, muito "amaricanizado"...logo espero pela video review, para conseguir formar melhor uma opinião.
