This game is great! Violent, funny and very pretty.
If you like pressing buttons to cut people in half, you should give it a try.

I have been thinking about getting this game actually, the artwork looks really good and I liked the title :)

Has it got a two player mode, either versus or coop?

Games based off Cartoons are generally :spew:

Think I'll wait and see with this.

Nope.
It does have "body part poker", though.

Cheers Zaphod but I think I will just rent it from LoveFilm, shame it doesnt have two player or I might have spent twenty quid on it.

I've just bought two new games though and been told not to keep spending my money so I better try to resist

I must confess I found Afro Samurai to be a touch on the boring side, Still, the art is fantastic in it, and it's great to hear Samuel L. Jackson reprise his Ninja-Ninja role.

Also: one of the mini-boss battles involves fighting ladies with their boobies out.

It's a lot of fun in places, and quite, quite hideous in others. Thankfully, the good outweighs the bad - it's definitely worth a rental at the very least.

Oh, and some of Samuel L Jackson's lines are genuinely hilarious.

"Man! If every woman I stuck my dick into died, I'd put that shit on my resume! Now, does that go under 'skills' or 'other interests'?"
