Genji: Days of the Blade “glitch” explained

If you are one of those people who easily get confused with a game’s multiple saves, you’ve probably encountered the minor glitch found in Game Republic‘s Genji: Days of the Blade back in November last year. The bug forces players to start the game from scratch as it doesn’t save the vital keys activated during the game’s earlier portions.

Now, a couple of months after, online site Wired mentions that one of their readers offered an explanation about this glitch. Take note that this isn’t just any reader as the guy claims to be a part of the Genji 2 testing team. His explanation reads:

The bug isn’t really a bug anyway, or at least a serious bug. It’s more graphics than anything else. What happens is the body the key is on disappears, but the key is very much still there. The prompt remains if anyone would actually go to where the body once was.

The reader then went on to explain that this minor problem was actually discovered early in the testing cycle. However, their team had to insert the code back because of the way Shizuka’s weapon was given to the user.

So there. What we suggest for you now is to turn on your PS3, play Genji, and then tell us if this one works.
