SAMURAI II: VENGEANCE is a sequel to Samurai: Way of the Warrior, and like its predecessor, it features stunning visuals and loads of ultra-gory violence. The story is a pretty standard martial arts fare, but the fast-and-furious action is undeniably exciting. The controls work quite smoothly and, overall, the game feels easier for non-pros to pick up and play. But slicing people's torsos in half with geysers of blood that spray across half the screen is something that is only going to appeal to a certain variety of gamer. It may be true to the Asian martial-arts flicks that obviously inspired it, but even in those films, there's a bit of a break between beheadings which is not found here.
