- GamePro.com - "Way of the Samurai is a uniquely great game in its own composed, disciplined mannerthe video game equivalent of a critically acclaimed art house indie film in a sea full of summer blockbusters. Dont be surprised if a small, dedicated flock of disciples come to learn its Way." Review by Star Dingo with scores and screen shots.

- Media and Games Online Network - "If the visuals were more polished and voice acting was added to present the story with enchanting cinematics, then this could have been one of the best games of the year. Even despite these shortfalls however, and for a game no one expected to be even good, this is a real solid treat which at least deserves a rental." Review by Victor with screen shots and overall score [8.2/10].
