Okamoto Talks Genji, Losing The Rumble
Game Republic honcho, Street Fighter creator and general wild-man Yoshiki Okamoto talks about his team's work on Genji: Days of the Blade. He tells game site Kikizo that work on the title had begun before Sony had even announced the PS3 specs. The title was originally slotted as a PS2 title. What about that rumble-for-motion-sensing swicheroo? Okamoto says: More »

Genji Massively Damaged
Chris Kohler over at the Wired gaming blog had several unkind things to say about Genji: Days of the Blade, one of the PS3's few original launch titles. The game is plagued by a crappy camera, off-screen objectives, and at least one bug that could completely screw up your day.But even that wasn't so bad when you compare it to the fact that I didn't know what to do next, and I wasn't finding anything because there was nothing to find. So it was back to GameFAQs' board, but this time there was no solution. Just confirmation that there was supposed to be an item for me to pick up, but due to a glitch in the game it disappears after a certain point. And of course, I'd been diligent and saved my game, meaning I was completely screwed. I'd have to start the game over.
Kudos to Chris for getting that far. I got bored and moved on to something else before even reaching that point. Too many potentially great launch games on two different systems to waste time not enjoying myself. Besides, why should I have to finish the game if Sony didn't? More »

Hollywood Midnight PS3 Launch Excess
When you get an invite to a Hollywood party for the PlayStation 3, you prepare yourself for a host of B- and C-level celebrity spottings, massive alcohol and fried food intake, and feeling like the homeliest person in the room. Fortunately, the Best Buy Hollywood PlayStation 3 block party did not disappoint. More »

Famitsu Reviews PS3 Games And Does It In Japanese!
The notoriously picky Japanese game mag Famitsu has filed its reviews for PS3 launch titles. The scale is 1-10, and most fall in the arch nemesis IGN 7-9 range (though, Famitsu is willing to dip below that). Here's the round-up, plus the mag's comments: More »

Genji 2 Uses Hard Drive To Speed Loading (Yay!)
Since I don't know if I'll be paying for any downloadable content from the PlayStation Network, nor if I'll have the means to use my 60GB of storage for clown porn, I wasn't sure what benefit I'd get from dropping the extra hundred bones on the big boy PlayStation 3. However, MTV's eagle-eyed Stephen Totilo spotted the menu option "INSTALL" during his hands-on time with Sony's Genji: Days of the Blade, which takes advantage of the standard, reliable hard drive on all units.

Genji Hands On
Genji: Days of the Blade was the last game I had a chance to get my hands on, thanks to the aborted evening of gaming. I was literally in the middle of an attack when a Sony PR guy came up, turned off the console and told me I HAD to go downstairs to eat and see the "surprise." More »

PS3 Viral Code Cracked
Those brilliant NeoGaffers managed to figure out the codes over on the Playstation 3's viral marketing site. Once you figure out what the symbols mean you can use them to spell out a list of words and unlock a bunch of freebies like soundtracks, wallpapers and tons o videos. British Gaming Blog was kind enough to upload and host videos for Lair, Genji, Motorstorm, Resistance: Fall of Man and Warhawk over on their site. More »

Sony Prices Its Own PS3 Games Cheaper for Japan
Sony Computer Entertainment has priced three of its first party titles. Two of them, Genji 2 and Resistance, are launch titles and will drop on November 11th. The third, MotorStorm, will hit on December 7th. While PS3 third party titles have been announced for between 7,140 yen and 8,190 yen (US $60 and $68), these first party titles will go for a reasonable 5,980 yen ($49). That means Japan not only gets a cheaper console, but also cheap first party games. Way to take one for the home team! We imagine to expect the same style of pricing elsewhere as well. Rather, we'd hope. More »

Nintendo Busts Sony's Balls For Massive Damage
The "Massive Damage" meme? Old. Uttered by the producer of Genji 2 at Sony's E3 train wreck of a presser, it's officially no longer funny. (It still makes us giggle, but whatever.) The quote has haunted that producer and ultimately has resulted in him not giving any more interviews, apparently. We wonder if he even leaves the house. More »

Sony On 360, Wii Competition: "We Don't Care"
Oh, Ken! You are so quotable. The littlest Sony executive told games trade MCV that, despite considerable interest in the Wii on his home turf and strong sales of the Xbox 360 westward, he's not gonna sweat it. More »

TGS06: Genji Real-Time Impression Switching
We didn't exactly go nuts for Genji at E3 2005, but came away a bit more positive after spending more time with the title at the Sony press reception party. The graphical and lighting upgrades are starting to make the game much more visually appealing. The backgrounds and environments glow with high dynamic range lighting, illuminating the cherry blossoms, making the ass-kicking much more serene. More »

It's too bad that Genji is actually pretty good, because this is the worst pitch we've ever heard and hope that this clip does not do massive damage to the game's sales.
TGS06: Justify Your Game: Genji
giant enemy crab
Kyle Shubel is a famous man. At E3, the producer unveiled not only one, but two catch phrases: "Giant enemy crab" and "Massive damage." The game is Genji: Days of the Blade, and actually looks somewhat interesting (once you expunge the E3 press conference from your mind). Shubel talked with Game Informer, pointing out that the giant crabs (heikegani) are real creatures and are two meters in size. Now, whether they found warriors in ancient Japanese battles is another issue. Shubel adds:
