Great, but not great enough

Upon first getting the game, I was totally wowed. The graphics seem so much better and so does the landscapes. Everything seemed so much cooler, and this lasted. There are lots more events to accomplish mid-stage that makes levels easier to beat, and the added control/leveling of the bodyguards is a nice new feature. After reading through the reviews though, one major question still remains...

This being Dynasty Warriors 4, why can't we get a vs. Mousou mode? Both DW4 and DW3 had vs modes, but most are hardly worth playing when considereing the regualr co-op mousou and free modes. I want to tackle a friend with a whole army riding at my back.

Another downfall that I wanted to point out (many people would hardly consider this a downfall) is that after playing for a long time, I came to realize just how much I get chased. Whenever you get near guards or generals, they focus on YOU and YOU alone. It doesn't seem to help like it did in previous installments to fight alongside your troops. The enemy will just come for YOU. Generals are the worst. They will follow you to the ends of the earth, until you jump off; then they'll go back to beating someone else up. But like I said earlier, many people would find this more pleasurable, it makes your character seem more powerful. I'm just sort of a person that likes to fight alongside others, not go it alone all the time.

All in all though, Dynasty Warriors rocks and hopefully the games keep coming. Wanted to give it 5 stars, but just couldn't mainly because I was still disspointed that there is no VS Mousou mode.

Great Game!

Koei been at it for years and it keeps getting better and better! DW game are great massive battles and armys. You can easily jump right in and start playing. Contarls are simple. Hit the enemy, knock them in the air and hit them back down. When you get stronger one blow kills and new attacks. It has everthing. Battles of open land where you and hundreds of alliles charge into the enermy and fight for ground. Or suicide stands inside castles. Fight for the wall until it gets desparte and make a final stand in the walls. Form 50 on 50, to 1,000 on 1,000, or the insane naman campaine where it's 1,000 on 100,000 literily!!!

The game follows three main family; Shu the pesants, Wu the father and kids, or the massive army of the evil Cao Cao. With other groups throwen in along the way. You fight for land and power until you find yourself the last survier aganists hundreds of enemys fighting despertly until you slowly and painfuly get slain...

There is now a DW 5 yet at $20.00 more I would stay at this one till the price drops. It's not worth just a few more levels and people.

In the game there is horses of differant colors and elephants. Along the way you can also get secret horses. You can also make your own charerters and bodygurds until you slowly rasie them to be gods. Or just use the other 42!

This game is great. T only for people becomeing one with the ground, no blood. The worst word is dam#. 10 is a good age. Lastly it's a great game!!!

Killer Game Lacks Strategy

I enjoyed this game more than any other under the Dynasty Warriors banner. HOWEVER, I find myself still desiring more for my money.

The graphics were fantastic, the voice-overs were excellent, the characters were intriguing, and the game play kept the controller in my hand for a long time. None-the-less, the game play is still just hitting buttons until my thumbs bleed. No thought, no strategy, no intelligence required.

Speaking of intelligence, the A.I. is better, but still dumb. While decemating enemy regiments, nearby troops, that in real life (or even in fantasy) would rush to support their comrades, just stand and stare. Meanwhile, when I myself get trapped and order my own regiments to attack in support they often attack the wrong thing or do exactly what I told them not to.

Finally, the strategy. Oh, I long for a game that takes intelligence to beat! The concept of this game is fantastic! But I want more control. I want to control where my troops are and give orders to flank or retreat. At least it would be nice to control my five body guards and tell them how to work in my direct area seperately.

Despite it's flaws, it's a great game worth investing a little money in. The game's concept is fantastic! Let's hope this company can continue to go forward and work out the kinks. Perhaps the next Dynasty Warriors game will satisfy all of our desires?

Oh, and make sure and check out "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" the book that Dynasty Warriors is based on. In fact, you can find it right here at Amazon.com!

Fun, fun, FUN.

This game is so much cooler than DW3. It still has all the faves like Lu Bu and Zhang He(Vega-like guy). You get more options for bodygaurds and you can even ride elephants. So what in the heck are you waiting for, go out and buy this.

There's no better portrait of the battlefield than DW4

DW4 is a beautifully crafted masterpiece featuring the battlefield of ancient China's 3 kingdoms period. From battlefields in the rural to the walls of the city, from the plains in the north to the jungles in the south, you will fight on foot or on horseback (in the southern scenarios you can ride elephants) Unfold the story as one of the heroes from Wei, Wu or Shu and unlock more characters as you go. So far this is the best work in this genre. Only the original DW4 lets you engage in 1 on 1 VS mode with your friends. The game will be more fun if the fightings on horseback/elephant can be more colorful.

Amazing

I never herd of KOEI, but I did see a review for a KOEI Game. So I Went to there website to find out more info on this game. But something cought my eye. DYNASTY WARRIORS 4!!! This is such a good game. It takes place in china. It is based on the novle ROMANCE OF THE THREE KINGDOMS. You chose from three kingdoms, and go into battle. I later lernd that they had a seres of games, like DYNASTY TACTICS. The Animation in DYNASTY WARRIORS 4 is great. You get body gards to help you, and as you kill more people, your rank rises. In short, THIS GAME ROCKS!!!!!

This Rocks!!

I've been a Dynasty Warriors fan since #2 and this is a great game. They changed the stupid "Find your weapon" part and gave more of an RPG feeling to it. A few more moves and some handy powerups. Only thing though is watch out for Nanman Campain, IT IS THE HARDEST LEVEL EVER. IT'S WORSE THEN FIGHING LU BU!!!

Best One So Far

Koei has improved a great deal since the last DW game. More stages and characters make for extra fun. The voices are far better, they seemed to try. Lack of Japanese voice option is disapointing but isn't missed that much.

Characters haven't changed much. Characters like Zhuge Liang, who where formerly in dire need of improvement have got it. Each character has several new outfitts, which is a plus.

The music is differant, but you will get used to it. If you don't, just turn it down.

Characters seem to coexist in this game. If you kill 100 opponents, it doesn't make sence for your brother to say, "good job general." Relationships between characters carry out into gameplay(Liu Bei-Zhang Fei-Guan Yu;Sun Jian-Sun Quan-Sun Ce-Sun Shang Xiang; etc)

Overall it is a great game.

Awesome!
