Onimusha 4 : Dawn of Dreams is a hack and slash game for the PS/2. Similar to the previous Onimusha games by Capcom, it pits a lone samurai and his companions against the vast demon Army an overwhelming odds. This army is no longer led by Oda Nobunaga but by a new short demon named Hideyoshi. The new hero is Soki and his 4 fellow warriors vary from a ninja girl to a Spanish warrior w/ huge arms...
Strengths: (1) A solid action game (2) Enemies and environments are well designed and varied (3) Control multiple characters
Weakness: (1) Odd character restrictions (such as having only a certain character be able to push boxes) (2) Action is emphasized at the expense of the storyline and sense of emersion
Onimusha: Dawn of Dreams is a pretty drastic reinvention of the Onimusha series. The original Onimusha Trilogy dealt with the many battles against the evil Nubunaga and his minions and featured static camera angles and prerendered backgrounds to provide an atmospheric adventure. Dawn of Dreams kicks off a new storyline and alters the gameplay as well. The first major change of note is the...
Strengths: Everything
Weakness: Nothing
Fans of the Onimusha series will be happy to know that this game is everything it should be, and more! With the previous installment, it seemed like Capcom had started to falter and were beginning to lose the fans that had loved the Onimusha series. However, with the release of Dawn of Dreams, fans can rejoice again. The storyline is unbelievably good, the action is engrossing, and the graphics...
Strengths: Looks Good, challenging, plenty of characters, unlockables, great setting and enemies, fantastic.
Weakness: None
The Onimusha series ahs been slightly hit or Miss. The first was great if highly challenging. I literally ahd to learn how to play it. But once I did, I felt a greats ense of accomplishment. Onimusha 2 &3 were okay but not as good as the first. But Dawn of Dreams returns to its roots and may be the best of the series. It has a great setting in feudal Japan. The gameplay is complex and...
Strengths: Graphics, storyline, gameplay, music, you name it
Weakness: None apparent
I usually wait for games to drop to the sub-$20 price range before i buy them - but this is not the case with the Onimusha series. This is one of my favorites franchises on Ps2 and this game did not dissapoint. It still maintains the style of previous games, but expands and adds alot. One of the biggest additions is the number of playable characters, which you can switch to at a whim. They have...
Strengths: New Onimusha with new theme
Weakness: N/A
Onimusha is one of those series I just can't seem to get enough of. And the latest addition to the series is nothing short of grand. With the newest additions characters to choose from and actions to take, this game will keep you busy for quite a while. Unlike the previous games the storyline is completely new with very little to do with the older games. There are a few references to them here...

All good things come to an end eventually, they say, but during the final battle in Capcom’s much-loved Onimusha 3: Demon Siege, I couldn’t believe that this was the final game in the series. Sure the Onimusha brand returned in the form of a fighting game that featured returning characters like Samanosuke and Jubei but what about the epic battle to put an end to demonic foes or putting an end...

A completely new Onimusha indeed!
Strengths: Tons of actions, plenty of characters to choose from, good storyline that keeps the other Onimusha's in mind
Weakness: Camera takes some getting used to.
Onimusha: Dawn of Dreams picks up 15 years after the previous Onimusha and places you in the role of Soki, the Oni of the Ash, who constantly follows Hideyoshi (Nobunaga's retainer) from land to land to burn down the cherry trees that he plants there. Why does Soki burn these cherry trees? Well, that will be explored midgame and sets the stage for one heck of a journey. Like Onimusha 2, this game...
