Lupin III and the Treasure of the Sorcerer King is the only recent Lupin III title to be localized in the US. Keeping with series tradition, Sorcerer King sees Lupin and his gang attempting to steal various macguffins while evading capture from ICPO detective Inspector Zenigata. Things become more interesting later in the game however, as the story quickly picks up after the first chapter with players having the choice of controlling any of the three anti-heroes. Despite staying very true to the series and having a fantastic English dub (Pioneer / Geneon), Sorcerer King isn't without its flaws. The stealth gameplay (as Lupin) feels clumsy and badly thought out, whilst the gun-ho gameplay (as Daisuke Jigen) is perhaps one of the most slapped together shooting mechanics I have ever seen in a video game. Despite this, if you're a big fan of the series you will get some enjoyment out of it. The plot and characters are very true to the cartoon while sound effects and background music is mostly ripped right out from the series. Sorcerer King is a must if you're a fan of the series, but if you've never watched much Lupin before I'd steer clear.Read full review
I love lupin the third so when the video game came out in the states I just had to have it. When ever I did seaches for the video game it always should me to different cover art. So naturaly I thought there were to video games. I finaly leared that was not the case. I own this game and even though its a hard game I love the animation and the fast pass of the game. I love the fact that you can play a lupin,goeman,and jiegan. I bought this game for my friend brand because he is a lupin fan and he could never find the game.thanks again for the game hope to do business with you again
It's like mgs but with microsoft powerpoint smart art. Sis loves Lupin III, so it's the perfect gateway drug into the metal gear franchise.
