This week is all about demon-slaying samurai! We were very excited to see Capcom announce Onimusha: Way of the Sword and wanted to give everyone a primer on the original Onimusha: Warlords. Onimusha was an early PS2 game released in March of 2001 (just six months after the U.S. launch of the system) and was originally named "Sengoku Biohazard" as it was a ninja themed Resident Evil game. Deucy and I talk through its development history as a N64 and PS1 game before it shifted to the PS2 and dive into the game itself and how it holds up nearly 24 years later! I've had plenty of experience with this one but this was Deucy's first play so he's got some fresh impressions from the 2019 Remaster.
Keep an ear out for our next episode where we cover the Most Influential Games of All Time with our friend Randy!
