Large companies coped well with the crisis, earning money from a man-made disaster and a ruthless desire for profit, not the salvation of all living things. One of these was the Syndicate Corporation. Her plans include the destruction of purifiers for the sale of chrysalites - devices for implantation into a person to protect against background radiation.. The protagonist - special agent Mayu Hasegawa with the callsign Konoho, sends the TCTF Department for Combating Technological Crimes to study the Syndicate's plans and, if violations are found, urgently harm their system.
During the course of the plot, it turns out that the head of the evil corporation is the brother of the protagonist - Muro Hasegawa. In addition to him, the plot features: Dr. Kerr, Terrance Griffin, Shinatama, Mukad and many others. A PlayStation 2 port was developed by Rockstar Canada. Reviewer: pdunham5 - favorite favorite favorite favorite - February 20, Subject: Fun game for people who don't play lots of games. I got this game when it was originally released and it was fun and entertaining for me, but I'm not a hard-core gamer.
The graphics were cutting-edge at the time, but will be considered dated by today's standards. It should run just fine in a VM. The Vintage Software Collection. With reflective surfaces, a wide variety of well designed textures, and gigantic level design, the game provides a good treat for the eye. Definitely one of the first in a new series of next generation titles, Oni exhibits strong level design and a sense for extremely detailed characters, adding to the suspension of disbelief that makes these titles strong.
The music, when it comes around, is definitely worth a good listen. With a strange techno sound, the soundtrack helps reinforce the very anime style of this game. This section of the game deserves a brief mention because, as you can see, Oni can run on a 2MB 3D Accelerated video card. Given the nice visuals and even better gameplay evident in the Oni engine, the fact that it only needs a 2MB video card is incredibly impressive. If Bungie licensed the Oni engine, modifications based on it could prove to be the next wave in fan created games.
The world is a miserable place to live. There is only one government, the masses live in fear of "Big Brother," and the last two superpowers are going at it with no real care for human life. In this corner, the TCTF Technology Crimes Task Force , the World Coalition Government's watchdog whose sole purpose is to keep the population under its thumb; a task they accomplish by using the propaganda that the abuse of technology is bad and that the TCTF is the only thing protecting the populace from all forms of crime.
Too bad they operate like a Gestapo in their investigations. In the other corner we have The Syndicate , an evil only slightly worse since they provide the desperate and downtrodden with all the weapons and explosives they need to kill one another. The syndicate is headed by Boss Muro, a man who eliminated all other crime kingpins to make himself the number one.
With him running the show, crime has gotten worse and an epic showdown of biblical proportions looms on the horizon. As Konoko, a rookie agent for the TCTF, you have been charged with the bone breaking task of infiltrating The Syndicate, figuring out their evil intentions, and taking them down. Along the way expect conspiracies, betrayal, and a lot of action. Gun blazing, hip throwing, jaw breaking action. First off, I want to say that being a fan of Anime Japanese Animation or Manga is going to be a plus for you when playing this game.
Many elements that are present in those mediums are implemented here: ultraviolence, martial arts action, two fisted gun toting, and of course doe-eyed characters.
Fans will also appreciate the fully animated intro sequence. As far as the controls go though Let me say that the control configuration is incredibly difficult as every button is used frequently including the never used L3 and R3 buttons.
In addition, instead of the camera constantly following behind Konoko, you must steer it with the right analog stick while controlling Konoko's movements with the direction pad. Yes, this can get difficult, especially when fighting multiple enemies from all different sides.
However, once you do become prolific with the control interface, you are treated to some incredibly cool action sequences as Konoko punches one bad guy in the face, uses him as a springboard, spinkicks another bad guy in the chest and then draws her mercury bow and freezes a third bad guy who heard the commotion from the next room. It takes a bit to get used to, but toughing it out is worth it.
Yes, you control the action and unless you don't enjoy Jackie Chan fight sequences you will not find this game to be any fun. As the game progresses, Konoko has to complete various missions such as infiltrating corrupt corporations, shutting down a supercomputer that achieved self awareness, and fighting a bevy of original assassins in climactic movie style.
The characters, both good and bad, are all unique and bring a real feel to the game. Personally, I liked watching the cut sequences showing cool looking assassins talking about their nefarious deeds and how they are going to kill Konoko.
Kerr and linked to a SLD - an android - called Shinatama, who is neurally linked to her. However, Konoko knows next to nothing about her past, other that she was orphaned at the age of three and felt "different" to other people while was being brought up under the wing of TCTF.
After many years in training, she has finally the chance to prove herself to Griffin and the TCTF, and so, heads for a warehouse rumoured to be under the control of the Syndicate, a criminal organization which grew exponentially after a young man called "Boss Muro" climbed to the top of the organization. Inspired by the classic Anime series Ghost in the Shell by Shirow Masamune, gameplay is a mix between generic third-person shooter and a classic beat'em up.
While Konoko has at her disposal several hand-to-hand acrobatic moves with more unlocked as the player advances , she can also find weapons in the levels, and the decision to go armed or bare-fisted is only up to the player.
Each weapon either draws from ballistic or energy cell clips, the number of rounds in each clip depending on the weapon: a Black Adder a short, one-hand machine gun like an Uzi can get 30 rounds from a ballistic clip, while a Mercury Bow a sniper railgun sans scope only two.
Combined with the limited availability of clips, this adds a strategic element to the game, as the player can only carry a weapon at a time, so if a powerful weapons runs out of ammo, the player must choose between keeping the weapon and fight hand to hand with the enemies until Konoko finds fresh ammo clips, or discard it for a lesser gun that uses different ammo.
