Onimusha: Dawn of Dreams

You want big-ass swords? We got big-ass swords

Dawn of Dreams isn't terribly original, with an Invasion of the Body Snatchers story that features more evil hand-wringing and malevolent laughter than a dime-store comic book. But the progression of nearly every story element is handled with almost mathematical precision. The results are gaming-by-numbers, but the whole is a hell of a lot of fun.

You'll love
  • Beautiful characters and environments
  • Fun, deep, customizable fighting
  • Unlockable two-player co-op is a blast
You'll hate
  • Allies are a pain in the ass
  • Camera is uncooperative
  • Awkward dialogue and voice acting
