Samurai Champloo: Sidetracked

Samurai Champloo: Sidetracked is a beat 'em up game for Playstation 2. It has an original story based on the anime series Samurai Champloo.

Story
The game follows an original story that combines the Edo Period of Japan (1603-1867) and the hip hop culture. Each character has his own specific storyline, so playing through the game several times will offer a different experience and adventure with each character.

Characters
The playable characters are Jin and Mugen. Upon the completion of the game, a third “secret” character is made available. The game includes the original three characters:Mugen, Jin, and Fuu.

Mugen(moogĕn),is the group's wild card who is not to be underestimated. He has a sword style all his own which incorporates break dancing techniques. Mugen has little tact and is easily swayed by food, booze, or women. His speed and ability along with his care free attitude and short temper make Mugen a force to be reckoned with.

Jin(jēn),who is known quite well for his tremendous skill with the style he uses, which he learned from his former Sensai, Mujushin, one of the few master swordsmen. Jin is calm, cool, and he keeps his wits about him. As most traditional samurai, jin has two swords by his side at all time. He is more likely to part with a comrade then his swords. Jin is gentle but when he unsheathes his sword there is no greater force in the land.

Fuu(foo), unlike both of the boys, is cheerful and a quite colorful person. Shes indecisive and stubborn and has no greater joy than eating until she's as fat as a cow. She's spunky, brave, and compassionate. She never thinks twice about helping a stranger in need, even if that stranger stole her money pouch earlier in the day.
