Before I begin, it is important to note that this game /does not/ work on the Xbox 360. For whatever reason, backwards compatibility on the 360 is limited to certain titles, and this is /not/ one of them. That said, if you have an Xbox (as in, the original) this is a very good game for its time. Visuals are less than great, but that is fine, because you won't care. The gameplay is frenetic and addictive. You'll want to bash hundreds of enemies in the face for hours on end and grind the enemy officers into dust. If you have friends, bring one over to cooperatively lay waste to empires. I would highly recommend playing with the Japanese voice-overs with subtitles, however. The English voice-overs are, in a word, awful. They are funny at first, but you soon realize that they ruin your groove like the that friend you know who ruins jokes. The Japanese voice-overs - while not Chinese, which is where the Romance of the Three Kingdoms story came from - set a much better tone. They are top-notch (at least to my American ears), very expressive and sincere. Finally, this is one of those old games where you are expected to uncover the secrets. There are permanent stat boosts, special items and event outcomes which are simply not hinted at, so if you like exploring maps to root out these items, you'll have plenty to do. In comparison to the rest of the series, this is the last North American version before Dynasty Warriors 7 that still offer the option to use the Japanese VO with subtitles and the English VO /never/ improved. Period. So this is truly a gem in the series, in my opinion.Read full review
