More of a "director's cut" than a straight port of last year's successful PlayStation 2 action/survival-horror hybrid, Genma Onimusha is such a refined version of the game that it's almost worth picking up even if you've already played through the original. In it, you play as Samanosuke Akechi, a masterless samurai dedicated to destroying a group of demons that have kidnapped a princess. To aid Samanosuke in his quest, a group of ogres have given him a magical gauntlet that devours the souls of the creatures he kills, providing him with special powers.
