Sengoku Basara 3 Utage [Japan Import]

This game is absolutely amazing on almost every level.The original Sengoku Basara 3 (Samurai Heroes) had only 3 modes to speak of: Story, Free, and Gallery.Utage has: Story, Unification, Event, Versus, Free, and Gallery. It might not sound like much at first glance, but on the contrary it has several submodes inside them to keeps things fresh and exciting for months/years to come. One thing to understand is that this is an expansion of 3, as such the main story is found in that game, Utage's story is a supplement to it and as such it's story is shorter, linear, and easier given there's only 8 story characters as opposed to 16 in the original.On the brightside however the game boasts a large roster of 30 almost doubling the roster of the original, each character with interesting and varied gameplay, no two characters play alike and that is to be commended. The gameplay itself is probably the best I've ever seen from the genre, people often say the masters of the genre are Koei with the Warriors games, and those games are great as well, but they only take advantage of two buttons on the controller, Sengoku on the other hand uses every single button giving you far more combat and combo options to have fun with.All in all I'd say this is truly the best Hack N Slash I've ever played and it is well worth the price of admission. The PS3 is region-free so you can play this game on any PS3 without the need of hacking devices, just beware that without any english text in the game that you will be spending a lot of time looking at translation guides for the story and customization modes.

My granddaughter was so surprised when I presented this game to her that she had been wanting for months. She actually studied how to play it bc she knew that it was Japanese language. I bought it used and was in very good condition!! Thanks for helping me put a big smile on a 10 year old's face . She says that she loves it!

I wish this got a release in the U.S. and truly wish for the possible increase in popularity in Sengoku Basara to gain some more attention and possible future releases world wide. This is an amazing addition to my collection and has me so pumped to get the 4th installment.

took awhile for it to arrive, but was well worth it for all the content you get in this japanese version of sengoku basara

I don't understand a darn bit of the writing...but I'm in America playing a Japanese game...so there's that. LOL! However, it plays just like Devil Kings (which is basically Basara 2) and Basara Sengko: Samurai Heroes (which is probably 3 or 4). It's hack/slash...great for those days of stress at work.

Nice amount of characters who are all unique combined with a low language barrier means you can't go too worng here if you are a fan of Warriors/Musou games. Good game to unwind with after a long day.

Very very good! Excellent condition and awesome characters... if you like hack and slash games this is by far one of the best. Everything is in japanese but you can look up translations etc. Overall awesome game and very pleased with it
