Product Description
-------------------
The popular Dynasty Warriors action series is back.
Dynasty Warriors 3 has tons of new features and environments,
adding 10 levels to the original eight along with new troop
types, including the terrifying elephant cavalry. You can command
your bodyguards with squad-level commands, and take advantage of
the improved Musou attacks. The game also features brand-new
two-player cooperative and versus modes, along with endurance and
time attack modes. And now, if players are caught in a combo,
they can evade attacks midair. The greater variety of play modes
and moves means this version moves past the kill-or-be-killed
approach of past incarnations, giving you more freedom to explore
and pursue a wide variety of goals. And where in the past many
scenes were available only with subtitles, the entire dramatic
content of Dynasty Warriors 3 has been dubbed in English, with an
ear to psychological realism.
.co.uk Review
-------------
A great showcase for the PS2, Dynasty Warriors 3 makes both a
great hole-up-for-the-weekend title and a good multiplayer party
game. The developers must have been busy with many a user test
and feedback survey form: most anything you could complain about
with DW2 has been overhauled or tweaked, and the combination of
these improvements and the addition of the two-player option
makes this a truly great PS2 title. If you liked the last
version, you will be enthralled with this combination of a
compelling story and complex martial arts action.
Parents (and anyone else interested in something a little more
socially redeeming than some of the games out there) take note:
this game is loosely based on remarkable Chinese legends. The
violence is well done and subtle, and playing this game could
cause your child to pick up a book (something other than a
strategy guide).
Here's what's changed:
* new characters--and more characters--all with more unique
personality traits
* great new cinematics (improved visually, and providing a more
compelling storyline)
* RPG-style weapons-management and "found items"
* two-player games, as cooperative Musou and Free mode and
combative single games.
* fewer life buns, which means players must be more judicious
within big battles (and you can no longer think of officers as
food sources)
* important updates are now spoken aloud, instead of just
flashing by as screen text
* more balance in the powers given each character--people other
than the big rs--including women characters--have their own
advantages
* archers are now even more of a threat, and reasonably
indestructible
* for many s, you now have to be a general before even
thinking of climbing on a horse
* elephants Here's what has stayed the same (some of these
probably should have changed):* sparse s that cause a fair
a of retracing steps
* that stupid, Limp Bizkit-meets-Yes soundtrack
* the controls remain the same, which is nice for those of us who
built up callouses on the last version --Jennifer Hauseman
