Asura’s Wrath

Announced in 2010 at the Tokyo Game Show and finally just released yesterday for North America, (February 21, 2012) is an action packed game like no other before it, called Asura’s Wrath. If you are into Anime, spectacular visual designs, animation, action, and a pretty cool story line that spans about 18 episodes (with unlockable ones), this would be one of those must have games for 2012!

With a pretty high score from IGN and all the crazy trailer videos, Asura Wrath could be consider a new type of action pack Anime Box set, with a mixture of Anime, Devil’s Man Cry, Dragon’s Lair, Street Fighter, Catharine, and a whole lot of who knows what. This, of course will probably get great reviews from Anime fans but probably not much so for the action pack hardcore gamers. Nonetheless, Asura’s Wrath is bringing something fresh and different to the video game industry. I, for one, will be seeing what all the buzz is about once I get my hands on this.

Asura’s Wrath is available for Xbox and PS3,Click here to find it on Amazon or  buy it at your local game store.

And what is this?! Ryu?! Now Capcom is creating some crazy buzz but it is an official image though!

Here is the plot descriptions from wiki
Asura was once one of the Eight Guardian Generals, 8 Godly warriors who fought to protect Heaven and Earth from a destructive force called the Gohma. Returning from a victorious battle, Asura was summoned to the Emperor’s throne. But to his horror, Asura finds the Emperor has been murdered and he has been accused of the crime. After escaping vengeful imperial forces, Asura rushes home to protect his family only to find his beloved wife Durga dead and his daughter Mithra kidnapped. In his rage, Asura finds his former allies who have Mithra captive. As the demigod charges to save his child, Asura is repulsed by the god Deus, who reveals himself to be the Emperor’s murderer so he can bring about what he calls “The Great Rebirth”. Weakened by Deus’ attacks, Asura is dropped over the edge of the platform and falls to Earth while swearing to exact his vengeance.
Twelve millenia later, Asura escapes from the depths of Naraka to find that his former comrades, now dubbed “The Seven Deities”, have been using Mithra’s power to amplify their own to god-like levels. During his quest for love and vengeance, Asura will confront and battle the forces of Heavens, packs of the Gohma, Divine Battleship fleets, and other tremendous obstacles. Sometime later in the story, Asura’s old rival Yasha will see how wrong the ways of the Seven Deities are and will try to aid Asura in his battle.
