The story behind Asura's Wrath has you playing as, well of course, Asura! You are a demi god with super powers that come from an energy source called Mantra a.k.a. human souls. As a demi god you lead a force to fight the impure known as Ghoma. To reward you with your services though, your leader betrays you killing your wife and kidnapping your daughter. And that is where Asura's Wrath starts!
Gameplay - The gameplay in this game is very simple. You have about 3 different attacks in which you will either be shooting, light combo punching, heavy punching, and then you have the special trigger attacks which happen when either countering, hitting the enemy on the ground, or its scripted. You'll be fighting on ground, god of war style, or in the air ( don't know what to compare it to, but your shooting only ). So other than those 2 things, the only other big part of the game is all the quick time events you have to play through.Visuals - The game has its own visual art style, combining science fiction and Japanese mytholigy ( i think thats what they said ). But it really works! the game looks very unique and good. The boss fights here are the highlight of the game, putting you against enemeies bigger than the planet, weapons bigger than 2 planets, and of course a girl with HUGE.. well yeah! They really went for an Anime style game which for you anime fans, I'm sure you've noticed from the start of the game to the end.
So this game is very appealing at first, but with repetitive action, it makes me wish that it could have just been an Anime instead! If the story doesn't do it for you guys, then the game has little hope past the half way point. I should add that some of the quick time events are very cool!
So with its anime like over the top gameplay Asura's Wrath gets a score of: 6 out of 10seanizL
