Words cannot express my happiness for this. Along with the live action movie and the anime continuation happening soon, it looks like Kenshin is gonna be revived soon enough.
got the iso copy of this game,and to be honest,i got disappointed.don't get me wrong,i'm a HUGE fan of the series and like all of you i was excited at first,but the game was disappointing,here are some of my observations:
first,i was expecting they will use the original BG music of the series(like in the PS2 kenshin game),instead they replaced it with crappy rock music,i also wished the game is in 3d(also like on ps2),instead its in 2d,it was like just playing shaman king spirit of shaman(ps1)
O.O I finally got to play the PS2 Kenshin game today and now I find out about this. It looks amazing. I hope they have everyone from the Jinchu arc and not just Enishi.
Gah! I want! I would LOVE to see this game come to the US! Favorite manga ever, though I was a bit disappointed in some of the anime. Makes me even MORE excited for the new anime that's coming out!
@Epant23 Are you insane!?!? Rurouni Kenshin it's as popular as hell!!!, even here in Chile it's pretty famous, in US, there are enough fans to make this game global
@negima47 dude dont T.T im sorry and i loved this anime too but if you watch what killed it you will never watch or play this game T.T my only fear of this game is fighting and Knight with a lance on a horse T.T thats all im going to say
PS if anyone knows what im talking about ........ the last eps of the anime Tumbs up T.T
(sigh) another Rurouni Kenshin game that will never EVER come out in the USA.... DARN IT ALL. Why cant we ever get an English translation to the games? I can name a good amount of people who would love to give it a try.
They better get the origonal guys to dub it when it comes over! This is the first time they've touched the Rurouni Kenshin franchise in over 10 years and they throw us Enishi! I take this as a public appolagy for the Reflections OVA.
@SKSSNEO : how sure are you that they'll include the final arc? damn, not going to get my hopes up on that but that would be so awesome if they finally listened to our cries and animated it.
Damn, this is Sweeeeet! I'm a long time fan of Rurouni Kenshin and been dying for a next gen fighting game based on this franchise. Too bad I don't have a PSP. If only they make a rurouni Kenshin game on the PS3 and make it available here in North America, then it would be a wish come true!
@FAFRO O please, you haven't even touched the game yet and you're just judging it by the graphics? It's pretty much what you can expect to see from psp most of the time. Please, play it before you compare it to heat the soul because that game is a piece of shit excuse for a fighting game. IMO, the bleach fighting game for DS is still a way more fun and technical fighting game than the HTS series.
I want this game so bad! I've been a fan of Kenshin for years, infact it's been my number 1 favorite series for years ever since I was introduced to it.
@SELG88 I wouldn't count it out, actually. RK is one of the most loved series of all time, and fans have been begging for a reboot since Sony decided to nix Jinchuu and the OVAs tanked. Now they give us a game for the 15th Anniversary and fans are crying reboot once more. There's also a LA movie rumored to be in the works, and that animation looks a little to high quality for just a psp game. I mean, c'mon, the epilogue is even included. I smell something epic in the works. Just my hunch though.
Sano has his sword, he just wasn't using it. But if you if you look on the screen you'll see an arrow and "1P weapon"...so pretty much he can drop it and pick it up again whenever he likes like Vega can do with his claw in Street Fighter.
@zanretsukenXII prolly on PSP because they dont have nough money to produce something hugh grade on the xbox or ps3, and wii is to gimmicky so they went with that. and i would prolly say that the trend Street Fighter 4 plays in making "2.5 D"( 2D gameplay 3D graphics) immensely popular, that and drawing and redrawing sprites takes FOREVER.
@TheGreatXavier You do realize Sony itself produced this series, right? It had a massive budget for it's time and Sony even used it to promote the PS2 when it first came out. Don't think budget is a problem, hon.
@CreampuffChico lol "hon" XD but yeah I guess they must have a pretty big budget, but then why would they produce it with early PS2 graphics/animations, and throw it on the PSP. Maybe they limited their budget because they dont know how well it will sell? I dunno just trying to figure out why theyre doing this when it has so much potential.
@TheGreatXavier (1/2) hmm, what do you mean "produce it with early PS2 graphics/animations, and throw it on the PSP"? As far as to why it's on the PSP rather than the PS3, I have a hunch that there is more to come(let's face it, this game will probably bank!) but that's just me. Also, don't forget that the PSP never "died" the way it has here in America, it's a lot more popular back in Japan, so I don't really think it's a question of whether a PS3 vs PSP game will sell better/worse.
@CreampuffChico By that I mean the graphics and animations arent the prettiest. Of course I realize its a PSP and can only have so much power, but I expected a little more than that atleast. But yeah thats one of my theories, that they want a bigger budget to work with so they make this one first and bank on it so they can not ONLY make a good game on the bigger consoles, but also get the hype and good advertising in. Thats what they did with street fighter HD remix, they banked it and did SF 4
@TheGreatXavier (2/2) and let's look at why TYPE of game they chose to make. personally, I think RK looks MUCH better as a 2D rather than a 3D, and Sony puts a lot of time and money into their PS3's 3D gaming graphics, so I'm guessing it'd be more wasted potential to have made a 2D for their PS3, and a full-blown 3D game would have wasted the potential for the series itself.
its for psp 2000 or only the 3000 model

the only thing that i liked in this game was that they included enishi and the jinchuu arc,and oh,the "ink effects" are not bad.
i rate this game 6/10. (RK enjou kyoto rinne for ps2 was better IMO)
