Okay, so there are some people who have some disdain for the French. They have snooty little accents, and apparently, they don't bathe very often. Considering all of this, do they really deserve having an undead army from feudal Japan walk into their backyard and piss all over it? We don't think so. And neither does uber-badass Jean Reno. In one of the weirdest crossovers ever, France's Jean Reno (The Professional) and Japan's Takeshi Kaneshiro (The Returner and Onimusha: Warlords) star as Jacques Blanc and Samanosuke, a deadly duo that seeks to rid the world of the evil emperor Nobunaga Odo and his legion of Genma warriors. With the help of Ako, a tiny tengu who has the ability to travel through time, Jacque and Samanosuke must not only defeat the imposing Genma army, but the enigma of time travel.

While Jacques and Samanosuke may be lost in the folds of time, you'll never be lost with our in-depth strategy guide to Onimusha 3: Demon Seige.
