Playstation 2 players got first crack at Samurai Michi aka Way of the Samurai back in 2002. In the game, a ronin named Kenji finds himself embroiled in a war between the Kurou Clan, the Akadama Clan, and the Japanese authorities. The three factions are all trying to control a sliver of real estate known as Rokkotsu Pass for their own respective reasons.Amidst the tensions, Kenji may lend his sword hand and samurai talents to any of the sides involved in the conflict. By choosing to fight for one side or another, Kenji basically decides his own destiny and creates unique drama all by his lonesome. Upon starting the game, players may opt to attack the leader of a bunch of bandits who has abducted a woman. He places her over his shoulder and is about to walk off when Kenji encounters him. If you elect to attack, only the leader will fight while his minions just circle around and do nothing.
The Playstation Portable conversion of Samurai Michi is pretty much a direct port of the PS2 game but an ad hoc fighting mode for 2 players has been added to the game options. A 1P vs. CPU fighting game which features 23 characters is also playable but only 9 fighters are available at the outset. Another 14 fighters may be unlocked by meeting certain objectives. On the stage that the fighters battle upon, two cats may be seen near a table. A movie preview of Samurai Michi 3 (PS3) is also included on the UMD for fans to check out. The preview features cut scenes along with blazing in-game fighting action that looks pretty good.
