Asura's Wrath

Remember seeing an epic trailer for this ages ago. Gameplay is slightly less epic than I was expecting. That said...









Pretty wrathful!

Demo up...

Just did the first bosss battle
It's just some standard quick time events but with some increasingly good epicness.
I'm not sure if its awesome or just, a game with no mechanics.

One thing I did think was, why don't they make the entire game like this but make it for Kinect......could have been a killer app.

Interesting demo that exemplifies everything that is good and bad about QTE sequences. Those brief stages contained more epic insanity than featured in most other games in their entirity... but the events are SO EPIC that they're just impossible to properly play; relegated to timed button presses.

Gave this a blast last night. I usually loathe QTE in games, but this was amazing fun!
Agree with harry. This would totally work with Kinect!

I am normally all for over the top crazy Japanese games, but something about this demo didn't do it for me. I ended up turning it off, maybe I wasn't in the right mood to play it.

Just finished this "game"' or should I say "series of QTE's?

It was ok for what it is, but I'm certainly glad I didn't buy it. Most annoying bit it has an achievement to complete the game, but that includes a secret level that you can only unlock by getting 5 "S" rankings or complete the game 3 times!! Stupid really.

That unlocked the moment I finished the last level because I'm the daddy!

I think this game is pretty awesome. Loved it. Weird experiment that paid off.

"AAAARRRRGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!"
"AAAAAAARRGGGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!"
"ARRRRRRRGGGHHHH!!!!"

His screams actually stop being funny very quickly. I found myself growing more and more empathetic toward the character and his overwhelming rage. The fact that it's coming from the death of his wife and the kidnapping of his daughter by his brothers in arms just makes it... intensely sad and powerful.

Special mention should go to the OST too, which is pretty spectacular!

Don't get me wrong it was a well written and engaging story, I just wish there was a little more to the gameplay. As I say I would certainly recommend it as a game worth playing, just not at £40

Sorry for resurrecting this thread but I recently got this and felt I had to say how awesome it is! :D

Its basically one very long QTE and the story is utterly ridiculous. I should hate it, but I fucking love it. There's nothing quite like it available for the 360.

Also it has perhaps the best achievement in the history of the 360. :lol:
