Has anybody here played Bushido Blade?

For those who have not, Bushido Blade is one of Square's only non-RPGs. It is a unique fighting game that eliminates health bars. It's all about one-hit kills. You take the role of one of 6 samurai and can choose from 8 weapons. Story mode, although fun, was way too short (even to play through with all characters), and the story needed some major work. It's still a very fun game nonetheless.

For those who have played it, what do you think of it, and do you still play it? I love it, and I still play it.

Sounds schweet as well as more realistic.

I'll have to look into it.

I've played the second one. It's a pretty fun game, but the battles are pretty short.

Played it, never got a good ending, how the heck do you fight "honorably"?

You need to follow the Bushido code. In the game, that means...

You can't strike an opponent from behind.
You can't strike an opponent who isn't ready.
You can't use a sub weapon.
You can't strike a grounded opponent.
You can't blind an opponent.

To beat story mode, you must follow that code. However, in Slash mode, you're allowed to kill your opponent however you want to, using any tactics you can.
