Dynasty Warriors 2

The first game I played (but not the first I actually owned) whenever I play this I feel like I'm a newbie to the games once more. Liu Bei is my favourite character (but he is REALLY hard to earn as some characters are).

It was a bit difficult the first few times I hired it and I could never get past the Yellow Turban Rebellion (the first level) but once you get used to the game it becomes easier. I could never get tired of this, I could just play and play and play and play.... you get the picture?

The graphics... the people are okay, they don't speak audibly in this game, words just appear on the screen when they do. When you ride horses if your character has a cape it often cuts the rumps of the horses. The horses in this game are animated better than in any of the other games! The hocks look right, they move at an appropriate speed fo that of a galloping horse. Their hoofbeats even sound more realistic.

If you've played any of the other games, then play this one. I recommend it greatly, but only if you are into the good old hack and slash video games.

DW games are the best

The bad things of this game is not for 2 players,not enough game modes only free mode and moscou mode and not enough stages.However the graphics and gameplay of this game rocks i could play this for 24 hours if i have a chance.There is some really hard generals like lu bu,it took me almost 10 minutes to defeat him.Overall this game is extremely entertaining and fun as hell to play.

Kept me entertained.

It kept me entertained for awhile but I never really got too far. I couldn't figure it out. My husband on the other has beat the game and this is one of his favorites. So based on how much he likes this I give it a 5 but I would rate it a 4. So approxiamtely 4.5 stars. There was just so many people fighting at once and I couldn't tell who my enemies were. but as i mentioned my husband knew.

Buy DY3 instead...

They're basically the same, only 3 has improved on 2. You should just skip this and go straight for 3, or 4, which is coming out soon... There really isn't any reason to play this game anymore.

The plot of this game is slim. All that you really do is umm, let me think... Hack and Slash and Hack and Slash. You run around button-mashing so that you can go to the next level. Even with all of the button-mashing and Hacking and Slashing, this game is still very fun and I would recommend renting it if not buying it. The lack of plot is easily made up for by the fun factor of the game. Who knew that pushing X and O and stuff could be so fun. This game is definetly a game that I would reccomend to fellow gamers. The violence in this game is minimal because there is no blood and the bodies disappear.

Fun, But Looooooong

At this point, Dynasty Warriors 3 is out....there is really no need to even play this one. DW3 is far better with improved gameplay and even multiplayer mode. Don't waste even a rental fee on this, if you really want to see DW2 play....just get DW3, there's not much difference. It's not that it isn't fun or cool...it's just that DW3 is the same thing packed with more fun. The problem I have with this one is, it takes over an hour to beat one level....and there really isn't any save points. That can be aggravating if you don't have a full hour to waste.

Unless your really bored, want to waste your money....or just crazy insane for the series....don't bother with this one at all.

You don't really need this one now that the thirds one's out

While the third one is better this version is still good. Why is this not as good as the third one? Well, this game was pretty good except that I liked the amount of Freedom in its sequal.

First of all, for every character the first two levels are the same. Then by the third stage it depends on what force you chose. Because each character in the force has the same level, this game doesn't offer much for replay value. Not to mention that there are only eight levels in this one as compared to the third ones 23.

There aren't as many characters in this one either but the mission lay-out is different. However, the main reason why you should pass this up is the difficulty. Because the AI is so bad (thats better in the third one too...) the game is too easy. You can be a one-man (or one woman) army and still take every body out. What's worse is that when fighting Generals when you knock them down they recover health while they're on their back and that really [aggravated] me off.

The Supreme Commanders are also impossible once you get there, but there gaurds are too stupid to take you on anyway. Also you only get two body gaurds and they'll die in about five seconds (literally).

My advice, get Dynasty Warriors 3, its harder, the enemies have more AI and you get eight body gaurds that can actually last in a mission, not to mention that you actually do have an army of your own.

Best ever

I loved this game. I thought it was kinda historically accurate, but the fun factor is great too. I gave this game five stars. because it was sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
much fun. Personnaly I love Kung Fu movies and martial arts books and video games, I also am very intereste4d in Asian history, so if you have the same attitude buy this game, for the love of god, buy this game.
