 - Solid Addition to the SeriesDynasty Warriors is one of those games that I like a lot, but I don't quite know why. I think I enjoy the idea of it all. Me versus an entire army of people. My behavior and abilities are powerful enough to destroy the entire army if used properly. However, I'm not quite a one man show since I need to rely on other generals and luitenants to hold their ground and win a battle or two as well. It's a nice idea. In reality the Dynasty Warriors games are definitely repetitive. They add more and more characters every time but not a great deal more depth. The battle situations are roughly the same and certain characters are mirror images of each other ability-wise. That being said, the game is just good fun. From the last time I played they added a career mode type of feel to the game. It used to be that you fought battles in a more linear order. Now you are presented with an Empire of different states, which must "rule over", invade, defend, etc. The decisions you make will ultimately change the mood of your fighters and affect the outcome of the battles. You can discover new items, capture new generals, and invest in different technologies. And it seems like getting new weapons is a little less difficult than in the old one. This helps a little bit with the repetitiveness by allowing you to control several different generals throughout the game rather than just using one over and over. Graphics wise, the game looks pretty good. It's not revolutionary and the draw-distance wasn't improved much, but it doesn't detract much from the playing. They seemed to add more seige type weapons and you run into more opposing guard captains and luitenants/generals. The Music is about the same as normal which is pretty bad, but doesn't really annoy me much, which is good. I'm pleasantly surprised that my Wife seems to enjoy playing along side me which is actually quite helpful and there aren't many games like that. Overall it's a great addition to the DW series and a good price. Pick it up if you like the previous ones or are looking for a solid hack and slash game. I have the 360 version. Rating: - Great valueFirst you should understand this is not the best looking 360 game graphicly its really a HD smooth running xbox1 game,that being said for 39.99 lots of hack and slash fun with the new Empire mode gives it a little RPG, alot of stradegy feel to it,but fear not for the people who dont really care about stradegy or an RPG game I dont either.This game just makes that stuff easy and fun and its still all about running around killing enemies with swords and spears.For those familiar to the Dynasty games you will be glad to know during battle you can give orders to each and every unit on your side,Example OF ORDERS:attack that enemy unit,aid that friendly unit,attack enemy base,aid friendly base.....and more importantly its easy to give these orders and the unit does the orders.Bottom line dont expect alot gtaphicly,but this game sure is fun with some new twist and its very addicting.BUY IT
