Okami comes to mind, but I've played that already. There's also Genji, but I didn't like it..
Any other games set in Japan, be it historical or mythological Japan?
I am also not against suggestions for games set in China (except Romance of the Three Kingdoms.. that series just looks too intense)

Japan is an island country located in Eastern Asia and the Northwestern Pacific Ocean. In the video game industry, Japan has for a long time been one of the most important territories for the development and sale of video games.
Looking for a cool game on Japanese history/mythology
All you need to play is Legend of the Mystical Ninja. But I guess you could play Way of the Samurai too.
Also, Muramasa I forgot to mention that I've played already. Thought it was lovely. Here's hoping the PSN/XBLA rumours turn out to be true.
Samurai Warriors kinda looks like Dynasty Warriors, which, uh, I've never been a big fan of.
Pocky & Rocky looks... kinda cool! But might not be what I'm looking for. Thanks though.
Shogun Total War... nice. I'll look into this one, thanks :D
Just noticed the posts about Way of the Samurai. Word, will look out for that game at my local game store. Cookies for the GB community!
(Though keep suggestions coming!)
edit: Yakuza Kenzan looks neat.. though my Japanese in its current state is nowhere near strong enough to make out 90% of what they'd be saying.
