He loses his wife and daughter to a power-plot dreamed up by the other deities, and finds himself resurrected centuries later through the sheer force of his anger. The game's story spans 12,000 years and follows the story of Asura – a demi-god betrayed by his fellow gods and thrown out of heaven. It delivers a story that's up there with the best gaming has to offer in terms of visual spectacle, but in doing so, it stays very close to the conventions of film, and rather shies away from actually being a game. It is an attempt at a new kind of interactive entertainment, one much closer to living, breathing anime than traditional action game. This is, self-evidently, an excellent thing – and a rare one, if you've been playing games for a long time. Asura's Wrath is not like any game you will ever have played before.
