| Summary: Rent it or buy it
75
Now, this was originally going to be a review on Need for Speed Rivals, but thanks to my local Gamecrazy (Who graciously sold my reserved copy, the LAST one.) I received a FREE used copy of Dynasty Warriors for the PSP. Now, I know 'Another Koei hunk of ^&*( where you kill stuff.' Not, not so? Don't believe me? Play it!
Yes, the swords, pikes, spears, and arrows are back and Ancient China needs you to kick the crap out of the soldiers attached to them. Empires, if you've played it, had a strategy element that didn't quite work. The PSP version fixes that, now you can COMMAND people, you read that correct. They each have a set of skills YOU control, it's an amazing sense when your whole army rushes on horseback with Attack +5. The "map strategy" element is still a bit weak and matters little.
Since a huge battlefield is too much for the PSP Koei sliced it up, you "liberate" areas and capture fortresses (Reinforces Troops + Heals your men) and supply posts (Refreshes Supplies, which is basically your time limit and Heals) There are also Urban and Rural battlefields. It's abit straight forward after that.
Gameplay - 7.5/10 (Because of repitition.)
Now, even for the PSP the graphics are abit...weak, to be nice. Ac!d and many other games look so much better, but that's not why you play the game, eh? Sound? Screams, weapons hitting, etc. All recycled from the older games, the music? The same, but I can never get the Chinese Drum + Guitar stuff, it hits home. 6.5/10
Either rent it or buy it, but the exclusion of Multiplayer will really steam some people, but not me (Since the nearest Hot-Spot is 20 miles away). I enjoy this title and am still playing it. and won't be trading this in for a looong time.
