Godai: Elemental Force PS2

GoDai. The name might sound like a Welsh racing driver, but it's actually a magical 3D fighting game set in feudal Japan, with all the trimmings. Your task is to guide our hero, Hiro, on a quest to harness the power of the five elements (yes, five - earth, wind, water, fire, and 'void') in order to avenge his family and reclaim his birthright.

As ever, these goals are achieved by knocking the stuffing out of anyone foolish enough to cross your path. Hiro can make excellent use of a variety of weapons, including Katanas, Shurikens, and other ninja favourites, and he's pretty useful with his fists as well. Throw in a handful of elemental magic attacks, Crouching Tiger style jumping, and seven different multiplayer modes, and you've got a recipe for ancient martial arts-based carnage on a grand scale.

* Fight your way through 16 campaign levels

* Innovative 'KinetiCam' provides 360 degree coverage of the action

* Detailed graphical and environmental effects
