Koei's Samurai Warriors Katana finally got introduced in a smashing media event in a demo held in Kyoto, Japan. The media event lasted for two days (September 29 to 30) and was carried out with the whole shebang: old-school Japan settings, staff in traditional costumes, and of course, hands-on demos of the game. Game media blow-outs like this one makes us wish we live in Japan.

Capcom's Devil Kings 2: Heroes Gaiden (also known as Basara 2: Heroes in Japan) also made an appearance, with hands-on playable demos as well. It's not the surprising, given that Devil Kings 2 is using more or less the same game model as the Dynasty Warriors franchise

This new Samurai Warriors title is unique compared to its predecessors since it employs a first person perspective, using the Wiimote's motion sensor to hack and slash your way through hordes of soldiers. The game is already out in Japan, with a December 3 release in the US
