Koei presents a handful of new images for its action videogame Samurai Warriors: KATANA, another Nintendo Wii exclusive title. The strange part of this production is that it asks the player to be in a first person view, which never happened before in this series. The Wiimote is transformed into a katana for this arcade entry, which is similar to a House of the Dead but for a samurai universe. Launch is planned February 22, 2008.

20 Million people bought a Wii -> there'll be enough idiots who are going to buy this game... Perhaps I'll also make some cheap, ugly games for the Wii, cause it's going to sell enough copies anyway... who needs quality?!

Doesn't the Wiiware dev kit cost like $350 or something? You actually could.

Pretty much every Wii game uses the remote as a sword or steering wheel. No one's really thinking outside the box like I'd hoped, but it doesn't surprise me considering the state of the industry today.

There's plenty of quality games on the Wii that you're definitely missing out on, however this is certainly not one of them. They could have at least friggin tried on this one, this is a total disgrace.

Lol, Doom Bringer hates everything, it's not personal! :o)

In this day and age, devs can do alot better than this. I'm pretty sure there were a good few Gamecube games which would surpass this graphically, and the wii is its SUCCESSOR!?!

Stack 'em high, sell 'em cheap.

What's up?

GeRaLTo @Baleur: 80% of reviews are written by "drones" .Ign, eurogamer,teamxbox, gamespot etc are nothing but companies. Who cares 'bout theirs "reviews" anyway (30 minutes ago)
Baleur Why are you discussing reviews anyway? When have reviews ever mattered? They are just individual people writing about their individual opinions. Might as well read reviews on music too then, lol XD (2 Hours ago)
GriftGFX pfft text! we only care for numbers (3 Hours ago)
blmbox Yeah, but judging by the content of both reviews, Eurogamer didn't particularly care much for the game anyway. They probably only gave it an 8 to avoid controversy - the review sounded more like a 6. (7 Hours ago)
GriftGFX 6 to 8 split on Eurogamer, which isn't quite as large but still pretty significant. (9 Hours ago)
SimonM7 Yeah sure, but from what console reviews are saying it's perfectly adequate. I mean I'm sure PC is the way to go, but I sincerely doubt we're seeing a 5 to 9 split score wise or anything. (9 Hours ago)
GriftGFX not that the Xbox version is "that bad" by most accounts either.. there are plenty of people here playing it who adore it.. but the PC game is recieving higher marks across the board (9 Hours ago)
