	NTSC-uk review > PlayStation 2 > Bujingai
		Bujingai begins with a stunning intro; the player is dumped straight into a fight with multiple enemies, and then left to play around with the controls briefly.
		Shooting itself in the foot somewhat though, Bujingai gives a player a rating depending on how they perform in terms of swordsmanship, speed and other variables, yet this rating is only given for the first time you complete a level, as it's possible to return to previously completed levels once they have been cleared.
		Bujingai's boss battles are by far the most epic sections, which mainly involve the player using the parry ability to the extreme.

	Bujingai Review
		Bujingai proves that you shouldn't judge a book by it's cover because Gackt..
		While Bujingai is a short play through, it's fun the whole way through.

		While Bujingai's short length and predictable enemy AI are major drawbacks, the title's aesthetic excellence and addictive visceral action make it a satisfying title for fans of the genre.
		Bujingai is set several hundred years in the future after a devastating attack by evil forces has killed most of the human race.
		Bujingai's animation is likewise impressive, with the characters moving smoothly throughout each level.

	1UP: Bujingai
		Where Bujingai succeeds where those others fail is first by being astonishingly pretty, and second by having the lightning-fast style required to emulate a real wirework action sequence, yet still remain playable by humans.
		It seemed like Bujingai was moving at 60 frames a second, but there was so much going on onscreen that I felt I must be seeing it wrong.
		Bujingai is set for a May release, but we'll keep playing and update with impressions periodically until then.

	Bujingai: The Forsaken City (PlayStation 2) Review
		Bujingai could be described as Otogi on crack, combined with the likeness of a Japanese pop idol (Gackt, who looks extremely badass in my opinion) with more flash then a Pink Floyd lightshow, and some RPG elements.
		The simple combos of Bujingai are cake to pull off, yet the the dynamic wall running, "Crouching Tiger flying", and magic repelling tactics create much more interesting things further in the game.
		Overall, Bujingai: The Forsaken City is greater then the sum of its parts.

	Printer-friendly version - Bujingai: The Forsaken City (PS2) - 9581 - CNET Reviews
		Bujingai: The Forsaken City is a strange animal in the realm of hack-and-slash titles.
		Bujingai's cutscenes and occasional moments of narrative transcend underdevelopment to the point of pure nonsensicalness.
		Bujingai is technically just fine, with no frame rate hitches to break up the action.

	GameMethod.com: Bujingai: The Forsaken City (PS2) Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Bujingai places you in the role of Lau Wong, an immortal martial artist who engages an old acquaintance in an epic struggle between humanity and the demon race.
		Bujingai is extremely straightforward in its organization, progressing from stage to stage in a linear fashion, as the story drives forward revealing Lau’s past and developing the present conflict.
		Bujingai does feature some creative design in a few levels, such as the trek for souls in the bamboo forest and one of the later stages requiring skillful application of wall jumping, yet most of the stages are straightforward in their design.

	Bujingai: The Forsaken City (PS2 US Import): Review \|\| Deadalfs - www.deadalfs.co.uk - gaming news, reviews, articles, ...
		Bujingai seems to be trying to be POP SOT in the platforming department, but only half heartedly.
		If Bujingai ever gets a sequel I will be surprised if they don't make something more of the run-of-the-mill fodder, so that you can really test your skills on better quality opponents without having to force yourself to go beyond button mashing when the game doesn't require you do anything else.
		Bujingai is a good game, but there are too many better games already available on PS2 and Xbox for this to be any more than a nice little stop gap between AAA titles.

	Bujingai Game Review - Tokidoki Entertainment Journal - Anime and Video Game Community
		Bujingai combines many of the positive elements of games like Shinobi, Kunoichi, Otogi, and Ninja Gaiden with amazing success.
		Although Bujingai is an action game at heart (and it certainly excels at that), it has its share of style as well.
		Bujingai is definitely the best action game I’ve played in a long time.

	PSXNATION: Run by a crack team of hardcore gamers. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Overall, Bujingai is a pretty straight-forward game and you should need little, if any, assistance in getting through the varying levels.
		Bujingai's real hitch lies in it's over-the-top combat system, which will have players soaring around in mid-air, flailing their blades in a mad rage, slicing through enemies like they were nothing...
		Although it's a tad on the short side and a bit repetitive after a while, Bujingai is definatley one of those titles that's worth picking up simply because of it's straightforward approach to the genre.

		Bujingai - The Forsaken City is a third person action-adventure title that brings martial arts fantasy to life.
		Bujingai: The Forsaken City is one of those types of games.
		So aside from Bujingay’s weird use of David Bowie influenced hero design, the character models are an excellent example of flamboyant anime styled colors mixed with ancient Asian outfits.

		Bujingai: The Forsaken City is one of the most unusual games in the action genre.
		Bujingai’s cut scenes are very dull in some sort.
		Bujingai's character designs are the brainchild of Cowboy Bebop alum Toshihiro Kawamoto, and it definitely shows.

	G4 - Feature - Bujingai (PS2) Preview (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		True to its cinematic roots, Bujingai has players conjuring magic, walking on walls, gliding in the air, and wielding two powerful swords in an effort to wipe out a supernatural threat pervading the game's seven action-packed stages.
		The story takes place in the twenty-third century, a time when the majority of Earth's population is decimated in the quest to find an energy source that's at least as powerful as a cup of Tim Horton's coffee.
		It should be noted that everything in Bujingai feels film-like, from the graceful motion-captured moves, and sweeping cut scenes, to the over-the-top swirls of light and cascade of sparks that punctuate each swing or clash of steel.

	PALgaming - Bujingai: Swordmaster Review - For Platforms: PS2 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Inspired by Hong Kong cinema, Bujingai: Swordmasters brings martial arts fantasy to life in a high speed third person action adventure which tells the story of Lau Wong and Rei Jenron.
		At its core Bujingai is a hack-n-slash title with plenty of Hong Kong movie inspired presentation to keep you busy but if you like a deep story this isn't the game for you.
		Bujingai: Swordmaster is a decent enough hack-n-slash game but the story is very limited, it's also a very short game and won't take much more than ten hours to complete even for the most amateur gamer.

		In actuality, Bujingai significantly builds upon these two, incorporating some of their best features to deliver a new post-apocalyptic game.
		In an attempt to generate a new source of energy, 70% of the world’s population was immediately wiped from the face of the earth.
		Visually, Bujingai is incredibly distinctive, with plenty of flashy action and incredibly slick animations.

	Bujingai: The Forsaken City - Reader Review - GameFAQs
		Fortunately, "Bujingai" is not limited only to Gackt's feminine demeanor; it has many other qualities that make it stand above the average hack and slash department.
		I could far more easily compare "Bujingai" to the acclaimed "Shinobi" or "Otogi", simply because it's focus on aesthetic beauty overrides it's demand for fast-paced action (and because of the familiar settings these three games share).
		Personally, the only aspect I think "Bujingai" rules in when compared to "DMC" is the fact that the camera always manages to stay much closer to Lau than it ever did with Dante.

		In the 23rd Century, an attempt to develop a new source of energy has gone horribly wrong, and an alarming number of the world's population is instantly wiped out.
		Armed with a pair of swords and an arsenal of magic spells, Lau must combat the demons and try to rescue what's left of the survivors.

	Bujingai: The Forsaken City (ps2: 2004): Reviews
		As cool as the sword fights and boss battles may be, Bujingai may frustrate you for hours at a time with poorly designed levels that depend too much on jumping puzzles.
		Bujingai ultimately falls short of the mark with a barely there story, doggy camerawork, and a surprisingly short completion time.
		Bujingai is a single layer DVD5, and is right at the size maximum.

		But what this game packs is a hearty surprise - a wonderfully tuned fighting engine with excellent swordplay reactions, counter attacks, and the ability to chain together huge combos with a number of sword attacks and spells.
		They're back with an all new action title for the PlayStation 2 called Bujingai: The Forsaken City and, from what I've played of the title, it packs an incredibly rich combat engine that'll keep you interacting well into the night, unpacking the game's heaping amount of combos and special attacks until you've become a master.
		Bujingai: The Forsaken City may appear to be just another action game at first glance, but take another look.

		To most Euro-casuals, the prospect of replaying a basic button-basher for hours on end to try and keep a single combo going for the duration of a level is something akin to having teeth pulled, yet our Eastern friends have no problem filling their days by trying to cap a combo of 16,000 hits.
		Well, yes and no; the thing is, if you are looking for a misty-screened button-cracker that requires little in the way of thought to run through it then Bujingai could be exactly what you are looking for.
		So while it's unlikely to change anyone's life, and will probably sit in the average game collection for about a fortnight before being traded in for something with a bit more bite to it, Bujingai is enjoyably inoffensive, and will keep you occupied for just long enough to get your money's worth out of it.

		The most amusing thing is that Taito, the company doing Bujingai has an English site in the works.

	GameSpy: Bujingai: The Forsaken City Preview
		Entertainment's Bujingai: The Forsaken City has a very big one: More verve and flash than a battalion of fashion models...
		Part of this is due to Bujingai's odd hero, a dual-sworded, mystical warrior that bears an uncanny resemblance to Japanese visual kei superstar Gackt.
		Bujingai is set in a post-apocalyptic future, though the characters are so fantastical it might as well be another dimension.

	Closer Look: Bujingai: The Forsaken City: Gamewatcher PlayStation 2 - allPS2.com
		Not many, however, can say that they feature a main character based on a real-life male Japanese pop star who has, among other things, claimed he is almost 500 years old and has psychic powers.
		In the 23rd Century, according to Bujingai's backstory, an attempt to create a new, cleaner source of energy ended in some sort of horrible disaster, wiping out 70% of the world's population.
		In any case, the consensus seems to be that Bujingai is a bit flawed, but still a very fun action-oriented title that certainly has a unique sense of style all its own, and some absolutely killer swordplay and awe-inspiring wire-fu.
