I must say, Bandai does have my interest. A game that lets you create your own character and meet the Inuyasha cast, building relationships with them? Sounds pretty good. The story involves the original character you can control, who you pick is male or female, winds up getting transported to the feudal era and encountering none other than everyone's favorite dog-demon. Shortly afterwards you team up with the regular cast of the show, including Kagome, Shippo, Miroku, and Sango. Having played the demo, I can confirm the game will feature the English Dub cast, such as Richard Cox, Moneca Stori, Jillian Michaels, and the rest. Inuyasha also follows you around on the game map, similar to, say, how Pikachu follows Ash in Pokemon Yellow. Although the graphics are nothing ground-breaking, they are at least okay to look at, despite the fact that the characters are in a super-deformed style similar to the older Final Fantasy games, but you must admit seeing a chibi Inuyasha running around isn't boring, to say the least. Sadly, I wasn't able to experience combat yet, but the game does seem to be satisfying on the most part. Apparently this game will also include the many aspects of the series, including the action(boss battles) romance(relationship forming... hmm....), and humor(...... if you've seen the series you'll probably have an idea), so the game looks to be at least satisfying to the Inuyasha fans, like me. I wouldn't know about the casual RPG fans yet, though. But still, being an Inuyasha fan I can must say I am looking forward a lot to this title. See you in November for a full review.
ANTICIPATION: 5/5

Well my dad bought it from Japan and I got a taste of it. I LOVED IT!!! Inuyasha fans will love it! The story is: In the begining, you chose either a boy or girl who's...YOU! (doesn't effect story) The boy/girl somehow breaks a sacred seal and ends up in Feudal Japan. The person's confused and walks around, sees some villages, they think your person's a demon, you meet a demon and run. Then you meet Inuyasha! Later on you meet Kagome and Shippo and your adventure begins! This is a 1-player game. The battling doen't come for a bit but it's GREAT! It's same type of battle mode as Final Fantasy and 3D! The only reason for 4 stars is because in one place the battle mode gets annoying a tiny bit but a true Inuyasha fan won't get super annoyed and stop. (My dad did.)

Alright, I haven't played this game yet (it's never come out). BUT I have found a great site where a person has played the game and they let you take a look at screenshots and read through walkthrough of the game. So you can decide on your own if you like it or not.

I find Inuyasha: The Cursed Mask, an overall excellent game, and a much needed improvement to the InuYasha game series. Compared to the original, playstation game InuYasha: A Feudal Fairy Tale, this one provides graphics far beyond that of the original.
Story: As a young boy/girl with the surname Kururugi, ventures into the store house behind their shrine, they fall into a time rip and are transported into the Feudal Era. Immediately, they are faced with InuYasha, the half-demon dog. Soon enough you are introduced to Kagome,Shippou, and later on, Sango and Miroku. The main character accompanies the group, on their journey, encountering evils they never would have dreamed imaginable.
Gameplay: I played as the girl character, so the boy might be a bit different. Overall, it was an easy gameplay with a very likeable, and original story. Although the many battles against random demons proved a bit "tiresome" and annoying, the game itself made me forget about those petty things. The fact that you can bond with the other characters is quite interesting, and the events that take place with them are enjoyable, and very in-character. Speaking of in-character, all the cast in this game is, if you watch or read the series. They react just how you'd think they would with a new person; Kagome instantly reacting kindly, understanding the situation for the character, InuYasha; at first a bit brash, but soon becomes good friends, Shippou; acting as though he were tougher than he was, but all-in-all a great kid, Miroku; flirtatious as ever, even asking "the" question to the girl, Sango; at first a little wary, considering that the character is getting hit on by Miroku, but understands later and starts to trust her. The boss battles can be a bit hard if you don't fight many of the lesser battles and level up.
Graphics: Very nice, 8/10. The characters are all chibi though, which you may find is nice, or just kind of weird... (I love it though!)
Difficulty: 8/10. The gameplay wasn't all that difficult, but it was easy to get lost in castles, and not find certain items.
Entertainment: 10/10. I loved the entire game, considering it brought "you" into the adventure. Also a lot of the humor that you find in the series was included.
Story: 10/10 Very original, and kept in canon with the series. It seemed like one of the InuYasha movies; taking place away from the series, but still making sense.
All in all, I thought it was an excellent game, where the player, a fan of the series or new to it, can easily understand and enjoy the game.
REALLY FUN

AS a devoted fan of inuyasha, when i saw this game on sale at target at the Christmas season, i istantly wanted it. When got it for Christmas, i was hooked! Even though the graphics arn't the best, and the battles and can sometimes make me groan, over all, it'as really fun. One of the most coolest things about it though, is that u get to build relationships with the characters. I perosnally like spending time with Miroku the best cuz he's my fave character and the adventures u have with him are always hilrious.
There are also anime clips in the video game, so that's pretty kool. I havn't beaten the game yet, but the story line so far is really good.
Another really good thing which makes me happy, is that the oringal voice actors from the anime lended their voices to the video game. That's kool!
But i have to admit, this game is really only for inuyasha fans cuz well.... i don't know, just non-inuyasha fans won't really get it.

This is my 3rd review now! My awesome new friend Amy let me play it, and I instantly fell in love with the game. I had Inu-Yasha follow me the whole time. Endless battles and victories ensued. Miroku and I kick butt with our co-op attack ( I think I have a teensy crush on him...he he he >.<). Anyways, overall it's the best RPG EVER!!! A MUST-HAVE FOR ALL INU FANS!!!!!!!!!
Sayonara 'til next time!
P.S. You also get to interact and spend time with the cast! It's every fan's dream come true!!! ...oh Miroku...
Interesting Game

I really enjoyed this game! I'm a HUGE Inu-Yasha fan and I really loved the battles and the interaction you have with the characters. It was nice to see everyone from the series in it and having you as the main character, get to form some kind of relationship with them, be it positive or negitive. What I was really happy with, was the fact that they used the actual voices from the series instead of impostors. Definately worth the money. I look forward to the next game to coming out. A must for all Inu-Yasha fans!

I'm going to get this game, but I already LOVE the way the character's interact with one another. And the fact that they're CHIBIFIED makes me all giddy and stuff.
The fact that you can play as someone else other than the Inu characters, excites me too (It's a fangirl's dream. LoL.) If it were like a story or something, even the idea of having a Mary Sue would make me annoyed. But this is AWESOME.
And I love Sesshoumaru's attack where he calls out Jaken. LoL. XP But my fav characters are still Inu and Kago.
Well....
