Asura's Wrath (2012)
Genres:Hack and slash/Beat 'em up
Themes:Action
Game modes:Single player
Story:The game follows the title character, the demigod Asura as he seeks revenge on the pantheon of other demigods who betrayed him. The story is presented in the style and format of an episodic series of cinematic shorts, including opening and closing credits, with the gameplay being integrated into the cinematic where players switch between third-person combat and interactive sequences with player input in the form of quick-time event button prompts. Because of its unique style, the game has been described in the media as an "interactive anime". According to the game's producer Kazuhiro Tsuchiya, Asura's Wrath takes elements from Hinduism and Buddhism and blends them with science fiction, with the main character based on the ever combative and superiority-seeking beings of the same name that are part of the Hindu and Buddhist cosmology.Show more

This is less of a game and more of an interactive hot-blooded fighting anime (e.g. Fist of the North Star, JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Jujutsu Kaisen). Most of the gameplay consists of QTEs, but this is a game you mainly play for the story, and it is a very entertaining story.
Asura's Wrath is not just a game, it's an experience, and it needs a comeback. It is packed with dramatic twists, emotional moments, and jaw-dropping set pieces. It’s a bold, unapologetic celebration of over-the-top action, emotional storytelling, and cinematic presentation. PLEASE ADD THIS GAME
Asura's Wrath is two things a game should be - cool and fun. Even if it's more of an interactive anime than a game. And even if the real ending is locked behind DLC. But the real issue is how it's a console exclusive - X360 and PS3. Personally, I own the PS3 version and it's an absolute treat with just the right ratio of difficulty to fun.
We need to bring back Asura's Wrath, a game that truly deserves a second chance! Asura's Wrath first came to the PS3/Xbox 360, and stayed on those consoles until the end of time. So please, RELEASE THY RAGE!!!
Fantastic animations, degenerate powerscaling, epic bossfights, beautiful artstyle, and finally, a perfect representation of what Wrath is all about. I believe this is the Capcom game that most deserves a remake, and I will continue to defend it for the rest of my life. I also almost cried at the end of the DLC, truly a game that deserves more.
This is essentially an interactive anime movie with a lot of button bashing. Asura kept getting stronger as the story goes making this an Shonen anime game that's inspired by a few mythologies. There's never a boring moment at all. You get some sick songs to keep you going. It's a very story driven game with some surprises. It's a shame Capcom canceled it's sequel. This is vastly different from majority of their games. I will say the title is very true to it's name. Asura's Wraith is one truly fun party you never wanna leave!!!
I platted it on PS3 and my god a PC port with 60 FPS + all the dlc would be killer. Hell, the modding community can go crazy with it. I hope CRAPCOM gives the green light to bring the game to pc
A hidden gem that's currently locked away on older hardware, with an ending possibly unavailable as it was paid DLC. The actual game is a mix of QTE and simple character action. However the game manages to really draw you into its world and story, and you realize this is more a playable anime. Which is great, because it goes in the same off-the-charts directions anime can go.
If this could somehow come to PC so more people could experience it, that would be fantastic.
This honeslty one of my favorite games ever. It honestly deserves a second chance. The game has so much replayability even if it's mostly qte's. The game is purre rule of cool. I like this this game so much, for every gaming event like the game awards or gamescom, I beg the CM of capcom USA on insta to bring it back. This is the kind of game that don't need complexity, to be great!
i already played it on ps3, and i absolutely loved it, its one of my favorite games. mainly because of the action, they outdid themselves with the action, and i have never seen it be done in this fashion. so its sad that its still stuck on ps3/xbox 360, and capcom doesnt seem to have any interest in it anymore. i really hope this game can get a second chance, so more people can enjoy it
X-Men Legends II: Rise of ApocalypseX-Men Legends II: Rise of Apocalypse is an action role-playing game and a sequel to X-Men Legends. The player controls a party of four characters, though only one at a time can be controlled directly. Besides switching the characters for combat purposes, the player is often obliged to do so, because some of the tasks in the game require the specific abilities of a certain mutant. For example, Iceman can put out the fire, Magneto can generate a metal bridge across a gap, etc. Most of the time, however, is spent in combat, collecting loot and acquiring experience points. Unlike the first game, items dropped by enemies are random. The character will level up, become stronger, and learn new skills. The player can opt to allocate all the experience and skill points manually.Action Fantasy Historical Science fiction

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3: Mutant NightmareTMNT3 puts more of a focus on teamwork, character development and control than any other console Turtles game to date. Gamers can play as their favorite Turtle alone or with up to three friends, earning experience points along the way as they slash and bash Foot Ninjas and powerful, well-known bosses from the TMNT universe. These experience points allow players to improve and evolve their Turtles' traits and abilities for more varied, powerful attacks and moves. The Ninja Scroll System is another new feature on TMMT3. Being able to select which ninja scrolls to use allows the Turtles to use various special abilities strategically. Cooperative play lies at the heart of TMNT3 and gamers who team up with friends for multiplayer action are rewarded with exclusive features such as Cooperative Attack for even more shell shocking damage to enemies. The effect of this attack changes depending on the number of players working together (between 2-4 players). For even greater control, TMNT3 features a new combat system called the Target Attack system that lets gamers play more instinctively and strategically. With the Target Attack system, players will be able to lock onto specific enemies and block, dodge or counter attack accordingly for smoother and more maneuverable combat. Story Mode can be played with 1-4 players. Even when you have less than 4 players to play, the other Turtles will be at your side, controlled through AI. All the Turtles can participate in Cooperative Attack to beat enemies and players can give commands to the AI.Action Science fiction
