Summary

It's the American West during the 1800's. The days of pioneers and the Gold Rush are ending, and a transcontinental railway is in place. One day, a lone stranger arrives in a tiny, windswept desert town? His long hair is drawn back in a topknot and he wears strange foreign clothes. A mysterious-looking blade that is neither a knife nor a saber hangs from his belt. This mysterious stranger is certainly no gunman, and he ain't no indian? His name is Gojiro Kiryu, and he's bringing justice back to the Old West. Slash your way through 16 different missions. "Bushido Sense" allows you to dodge and deflect bullets with superhuman skill. Customize your hero by choosing between 10 different stances each with their own special attacks and powers. Over 100 unlockables including over 25 playable characters, 70 accessories and 20 weapons. Be a Samurai or a Gunman! Unique 2 player mode allows you to play as both. Unleash the power of the samurai in Master Mode and chain hundred-hit combos. [Atlus]

The customization options are cool, but more often than not the game's repetitiveness and low development values drag it through the mud.

At the end of the day, Samurai Western is one of those games where it’s hard not to wonder why someone bothered to make the game in the first place.

Samurai Western is a mess of a game, one that dangles a fun-looking carrot in front of your nose before bludgeoning your face in with a mallet.
