Nanobreaker - PS2

Conceived and developed by Koji Igarashi, the man behind the much-admired Castlevania series, Nanobreaker puts a shape-shifting Plasma Blade into the hands of your character Jake Warren, as he rips his way through a futuristic world ravaged by nano-machines, on a mission to defend mankind from annihilation. Warren's dilemma is that he's half-man, half-machine - a cyborg that balances human emotion with cold machine instinct.

So, get this for a glimpse into the future...once-servile nanomachines on the march in a blood and iron frenzy. No longer the obedient mini-machines built to assist, they begin to harvest the iron of buildings and the blood of man in order to construct an army of monster machines. Entire populations and colonies are threatened with assimilation, and only Warren can stop the madness and save humankind.

Nanobreaker displays a stunning level of detail and hugely entertaining gameplay. As players conquer stages by cutting swathes through waves and waves of out-of-control nano-machines, bigger and badder adversaries hove into view. As well as the versatile plasma blade, players can pick up broken machines and use them as a secondary weapon, while both easy and advanced modes ensure the game can be enjoyed by novice and hardened gamers alike. more
