Dynasty Warriors 6 review

Set in Ancient China during the 3rd century, Dynasty Warriors 6 immerses gamers in a truly cinematic kung-fu action experience. Celebrated characters have been completely re-imagined with new weapons and fighting techniques motion-captured from some of today’s leading stuntmen and women in Asia. With the game’s new “Renbu” attack system and game controls, players can execute lightning-fast combos and the most dazzling fighting moves with ease. Well there is not a lot new here for this title nor has there been for the last 5 titles or there spin-offs. But this is the first next gen Dynasty warriors game. Sporting a somewhat more detailed look, it still suffers from all the problems of the previous ones. Bad camera, pop-ins , no environment and very glitchy controls. You would think that Koei would have said hey lets try to make something that will work this time instead of the exact same game, or at least thrown in online multiplayer this time. But no we got a new paint job that isnt really that good anyway. So why even bother checking this title out? Well becuase somehting about beating the hell out of a slew of guys with some cool weapons is very fun and appealing. Now if the problems had been fixed this series could be something that fans and newcomers can be proud to own. Because no one plays this game for its story or for its history, they play to beat up on guys and do it with some great weaponry. So while this ios not a great title and certainly is not worth the full retail amount, it does fill your appetite for that lets so how many guys I can throw in the air with this giant spiked stick. So im sorry Koei but I cant recommend this to anyone since you havnt had a good title since Dynasty warriors 2 and event hat one wasnt very good. So please lets get something new and creative out on the market to woo all your adoring fans back in.
