Kamiwaza: Way of the The Thief is a very bizarre and unique PS2 game that I've never ever seen referenced on the internet before. The best way I can describe it is like a cross between Thief, Katamari Damacy, and the Way of the Samurai series. You go on missions to steal stuff in an old Japanese town while taking care of your sick daughter and battling both fellow thieves and corrupt cops. There's some fighting, but it's mostly about stealth and getting combos from stealing items in rapid succession.
There are also an absolute ton of voluptuous women in kimonos, and a move where you can literally steal the clothing off of female townspeople in lieu of taking their money. It's not really a great game, but I'm sure that if it had been localized at the time it would be considered a cult classic today. It's on Steam and PSN, and I'd give it a try if you see it on sale for cheap. There's no other game like it.
