'Bikini Samurai Squad' slashes Stateside on 360

She seems to be lacking some sort of samurai armor. And a penis to give her samurai rights.

Now here's something feminazi's should be focusing on!

There is no way this game could be bad.

Don't buy it when it first comes out, because I'm pretty sure it'll eventually be released at a discounted price with DOA 4 under some kind of "Greatest Tits" banner.

This is so going to sell in Japan...add zombies with tentacles and you got yourself a multimillion title

For a second I was considering whether bikini's were the best outfit for fighting zombies. Then I remembered I was supposed to be a victim of marketing, and all was well again.

Do they have zombie tentacles in the Japanese version?

D3 sold me on their next 360 title after EDF, so I'll be checking this one out. Let's just hope they add online coop to the offline, since that was my only major complaint with their last title.

Either that, or Zombies Vs Ambulance on XBLA or PSN!

Um...lest is a conjunction making that a dependent clause. Where's the clause on which it is dependent?

Lest means "so as to prevent any possibility that".

Oh, and so as to prevent any possibility that we forget the ability to check out the "super sexy" twins in the "exclusive dress-up mode."

That's not a complete sentence. Maybe that should have been "Oh, and god forbid we forget the ability...'"

Grammar is fun!

You know...put this out at a friendly 20-30 dollar price, and I'd actually think about it. I could pretty much care less about the bikini clad chick, but I'm more or less down for anything that involves zombies. Make this more like 50 bucks, or the standard 60 bucks and there is no way in hell.

This game isn't even weird. Compared to Battle Raper and Cho Aneki, Onechanbara is tame.

Jesus Christ, some days I wake up and look at the state of video games and ask myself why I am killing myself to get an education to work in this industry.

The culture of video games is the most disgustingly juvenile and puerile collection of any major medium. The primary representation of the medium of video games is one of base sex and violence completely eschewing any sense of artistry or intelligence. The blame is most easily lain on the makers but gamers deserve their fair share.

This game is one of the most exploitative and disgracefully sexist things I have seen in a long while that is not outright pornography. We, as gamers, should demand that video game makers treat us with far more respect than this. The standard line whenever video games are attacked is that they are art and that they cannot be censored. I have long believed in that statement and have been a passionate defender of the medium, but I am starting to get tired of it. This game, like most everything that comes out of the industry, is far from art. This is trash, plain and simple.

As I said, shame on the people who made this but equal blame should also go on gamers who have been steadfastly resistant to engage in any sort of critical analysis of the major works of video games. The great French New Wave films of the 1960s came about as a result of students of film gather first as critics before making their own movies. By focusing the culture of video games on what kitshy thing someone has done with 8-bit Mario graphics or graphically intensive tits there should be SOME people who are willing to sit down with the great works of video games and figure out why they work and what they mean - what they tell us about the artist and about ourselves.

This has been a bit harsh on everyone I know, I just can't understand hearing about a game like this and not demanding that we as a culture start taking ourselves seriously. This shouldn't be bought or rented or even laughed at, people should be mad that they think we are this stupid.

I think video game fans are smart people. I think we realize the potential for artistic expression and storytelling in video games, that is why I am dedicating my life to the medium. I just think there is reason to be profoundly disappointed in the state of video games. Rather than spending our time arguing about brand loyalties we should be demanding that these companies that we give billions of dollars a year provide us with something beyond the culinary.

I am sorry for thread jacking.

Good news, I was afraid it wouldn't be localized ^^

i saw a poster for the MOVIE version of this in tokyo a few months back.. not sure if it's come out yet tho...
:-o

It is true that games are better with the inclusion of zombies.
It is also reasonable to assume that games are never hurt by including bikinis.
Therefore we can assume that this game will be awesome.

Onechanbara X returns.

Amazing, I never honestly thought that this game would ever be released in the US.

Also, if you think this is exploitative, you haven't seen much of the simple 2000 line of games yet.

Okay, now this game is at least a rental for me. : )

Evidently, in addition to being bikini-clad samurai, these ladies are also cowboys. Seriously, what gives with the hat? Is this some sort of strange tribute to Rising Zan: Samurai Gunman?

Where's my GORRAM PS2 version?! The game appeared on the PS2 first! Release it, dammit!@

That's great and all that this is finally coming stateside, but where's my freakin' Zombies vs. Ambulances?

It's so absurd and ridiculous, I'll have to get it!

I'm buying it.....it's an original title...it will be at a cheaper price offering......and its premise is hilarious.

Heck I took chances on unknown (at the time) games like: POY POY, TEN PIN ALLEY, BYST-A-MOVE, RETURN FIRE, GOD HAND, INCREDIBLE CRISIS, and FREQUENCY.....and have been rewarded heartily.
