I think dynasty warriors 3 is a big improvment from the old one.I mean sure it gets a little repetative after beating a ton of soldiors but over all its a good game. Theres some new tricks to learn ,such as dubble musuo atacks, to fully master the game.Its a little hard at times aswell but still fun.

Definitely lots of Action.

After playing Dynasty Warrior 3, I now truly understand the fun of a real action games that involves very little strategy yet keeps you playing. Dynasty Warrior's story line is based on Chinese Han dynasty story translated 3 Kingdoms which are represented by the main characters in this game. The game covers major events, but does not satisfy itself compare to strategy versions of Three Kingdoms. Gameplay is okay, you basically walk or get on a horse and wack everyone around you, and when you get a special (Musuo) you go on a rampage and wack 10 or 15 ppl or however many are around you. The downside is that your "bodyguards" barely fights, they stand around and the enemy first stand around too. They face off for 5 second and then start whacking. AI of enemy is okay, they surround you and then attack you one at a time which sometimes knocks you silly(you can't move) thats how you mainly get killed. Sound is done okay, nothing worth mentioning, nothing bad either. Replay value is highly moderate because in order to get more characters you have to beat the game with original characters, and in order to get special weapon for certain characters you would also have to replay the missions, but thats not really bad because the missions are fun and you make people fly around all over the place. Overall, this game is great, I play it alot, and I find it satisfying enough for my taste so I find this game cheaper thrill than Dynasty Warrior 4 (which includes 1 or 2 more new characters or new features.)

I would mention some details about the game which other people haven't mentioned. I would say there are a few bugs in the game, at least to me. I will call them the "off-fence bugs". In the stage of "Guan Yu's Escape, at the last gate I knocked the last genenal Xiahou Dun off the cliff and I couldn't find him no more. His position is still on both the radar and the map but he is down in the hill and won't be able to get back. So I couldn't kill (reach) him and was unable to finish the mission because the gate is closed without finishing him.

Other situation of the bug is at the fence of the enemy camps, i.e. where there is gate captain, when you knocked out a general or officer off the fence, you can not get the meat bum or items from them. You can see the item but cannot reach it. It's in the other side of the fence which you can not cross.

Some details:
It's better not to play with the commander. If you use Sima Yi or Zhuge Liang and just sit at your HQ, you will be finished by your enemy soon. Your computer allies are stupid, in most situations they stay intact and will be eliminated by the enemy. You have to finish all the enemy officers yourself. There's certain way to finish every stage. I tried different ways in playing Yi Ling and Wu Zhang Plains in Difficult mode. But either lots of my allies died or I ran out of time to save my commander Zhuge Liang. In Wu Zhang Plains I simply went to Sima Yi directly and finished him with trial and errors (use arrows, Musou charge, run, etc). I only knocked out 3 enemy soliders and killed Sima Yi within 10 minutes. The process is very hard and my bonus is negative. So I believe each game you have to follow certain ways of play, in order to get good points.

BTW, when I finished the hard mode with Guan Yu, his attack bar and defense bar are full and I unlocked the "very hard" mode whic I do not want to try. With all the difficulties and generals you can play this game for ever.

Best Drunk Fun ever

The game is most like samurai warriors,its fun with amazing graphics,nice game play awsome characters facinating sounds lots and lots of! generals to fight and awsome victories easy mode is actaully hard a little and this code lied to get forth weapon easier it is to get third weapon easier I can't believe I trusted that but lets get to the point.If you had never played a dynasty warriors game buy part 4 or 3 you pick but I didn"t beat the hole entire game yet it is to hard for me,but lots of long stages and a little bit of short stages for dynasty warriors 3 I might buy the fourth one maybe,but if you pick this game I'd bet you would like it also neat items and weapons this game is totally cool and I want to give it two million stars if I could.

This game is great when you look past the many drawbacks. I'll focus on the good things first.
1.This games has much better graphics than the PS2, and much smoother running.
2.The gameplay is still the best part, though gets repetitive to kill a boss 4 times in one level.
3.The battle screams and gruns are great.
4.The voice acting is pretty funny.
5.One word...ELEPHANTS!!!

The bad things:

1.There is only 9 yes 9 levels. They really should think about putting more in.
2.The characters just get too powerful.
3.Mesou mode was kind of dumb. They should have put like: Beserk or Adreneline Rush
4.The levels are the same for all the characters.
5. Vs mode is gay.
