I have such a soft spot for this game despite all of its flaws. Of all the games in the TLoS trilogy (console versions), this is the best one imo. Yeah, the free flight system in this game is nothing to write home about, but I still have a blast with this game whenever I replay it. Is it nostalgia? Definitely, but I still think this is an interesting game nonetheless.

This was one of my favorite games growing up. I genuinely loved the sheer scale of the game. It was arguably more epic than anything I had yet seen as a child, and it's one of the best video games I ever owned on my old PS2. Not to mention the all-star voice cast this game had: Elijah Wood, Gary Oldman, and Mark Hamill, to name a few. I wouldn't have known these names back when I played the game, but I still remember enjoying every second of the dialogue. The music was superb, too, for a PS2 game. Just look up "Valley of Avalar" or "Floating Islands" or any of the rest of the soundtrack to see what I mean. I'd love to see the whole trilogy on GOG so more people can experience both this and the other two games in the trilogy.

Onimusha 3: Demon Siege
Onimusha 3: Demon SiegeOnimusha 3 is the third game of the Onimusha series. The game retains elements from previous games in the franchise including the use of multiple special weapons in order to fight enemies and absorb their energy to enhance the weaponry. This time the player primarily controls both Samanosuke and Jacques in separate scenarios. The two are able to exchange items in order to solve puzzles. The development from this game started after the release of the PlayStation 2 which allowed the team to work on a 3D engine to design 3D backgrounds. In order to appeal to the Western market, the team set this game in Paris and chose French actor Jean Reno to portray Jacques. Onimusha 3 has been generally well received by publications for video games. Most of the writer's praise focused on the improved controls and the use of a 3D engine that allowed better combat and visuals, respectively. The game also generated good sales with over 1.5 million copies sold as of May 2008.

Onimusha: Dawn of Dreams

While game retains the action elements from previous Onimusha, it offers a more varied amount of weapons as well as the option of going back to previous stage to unlock new content. The game also introduces a 3D camera as well as the ability to continuously fight alongside AI controlled characters who move depending on the player's orders. Dawn of Dreams was announced by Capcom due to high fan demand and several Capcom members realizing they could expand the action elements from Onimusha after working in Shadow of Rome. The game was designed in order to appeal to skilled gamers rather than the general market which resulted in appealing designs rather than realistic.
