Namco Bandai has revealed plans for their game based on the futuristic feudal Japan TV mini series, Afro Samurai. The PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 game that is to be released this Fall, follows the plot of the original series with added material and background for fans and new comers alike.

A striking art style gives Afro Samurai a truly unique look and feel across beautifully animated open environments as he wages war against his adversaries to become number one. Using an innovative gameplay system, enemy AI is affected by the beat of the musical score produced by RZA of Wu-Tang Clan fame.

These dynamic battles ensure stylized encounters throughout the game that affect the overall tone of gameplay. Slice and dismember opponents as Afro acrobatically leaps from one location to the next, interacting with anything and everything in the environment to help him on his journey

This freshman effort shows promise but has a lot of kinks to work out.
Finally, the Xbox 360 has a JRPG which it can claim as a true RPG gem, and if Tales of Vesperia doesn’t get RPG fans believing in the 360’s future with the genre, nothing will.
