In a small village in South America is attacked by unknown creatures. It was first out on PlayStation 3 but then did come out on PlayStation 4. It is a good game. It was the highest-rated entry in the entire series, and the PlayStation 4 version had some updates that made it better. It is a kind of underrated game, in my opinion. It never got a lot of attention.

It was a game that came out on pretty much everything back in It also came out on switch in Honestly, just like a fantastic all-around game, you should play it because not enough people did. A side-scrolling action stealth game that is fluid and fast. Because I think you could describe it and it would sound like a lot of games, but it is unique and incredibly fun. Mark of the Ninja is one you got to play. It is available to play on pretty much everything. It originally came out in and got remastered for pretty much everything.

Basically, the point is you create your own ninja, and you play in teams of four, against other players online. It looks very different from many Naruto games because the backgrounds are very cartoonish and the type of game. However, it is an incredibly fun game, and it is unique. In some ways, it vaguely reminds me of if Power Stone were much bigger, like in scale but not entirely.

The first being Stealth Assassins, the second being Shadow Assassins. The first game I can remember playing the hell out of because it was one of the better-looking games, which is funny when you look back on it now. But the second part was an exciting take on the type of formula is established. In that series has some bearing of influence over the formula they used in that game.

Little harder to play these, though. Shadow assassins was a PSP game. It is possibly one of the coolest ideas on this list. You have a set of heroes with different skills that you have to apply to different situations. It just applies it to the sort of samurai idea incredibly well. Bushido Blade was a fighting game. It was a square soft attempt at creating a new fighting game franchise. Now they did make two of them, Bushido Blade and Bushido Blade 2, and they had a unique damage system that did lots of different things based on where you hit somebody.

It had a lot of swordplays. There is a fair amount of exploration, which is not something that you usually see in a fighting game. It is also made it hard for you to succeed because it was a bit different. We are not talking about the old version but the new one. The new version is a hack and slash which took a somewhat like cavalier attempt at the first one and then revamped the combat system in the second, which allowed dismemberment.

This game is significantly less about stealth than almost any other game on this list. The first one was a bit more specific about its protagonist. The second one lets you make your protagonist. The second one functioned as a prequel for the most part, but some of it was posted the first game story. The second was bigger in scope as it tends to be with sequels. I would say that Onimusha is a bit more of a hack and slash than resident evil.

But as a series, it ended up being a worthwhile one. It was one they initially started to work on for PlayStation and eventually moved to PlayStation 2. It is an old PS2 game. It did have a couple of sequels, but I think the most notable is probably the original. The cool thing about it is that you can radically alter precisely how the story goes down.

Probably a lot more so than a lot of other games in this era. Still, it was a very high-quality title for the time. It was an excellent looking game, like looking back on it.
