    I swear these Dynasty Warriors reviews really do write themselves! Those who are not fans aren't immersed the real-life history and people that this game is based on, as well as the classic novel known as Romance of The Three Kingdoms by Luo Guangzuo. For me that's part of the appeal of the DW series, is that I'm playing though actual events and battles with real heroes from back then. That's not to say that there aren't a few fictional elements. Lots of fans are fans of the history as well. It only makes this game more entertaining. Expand

    Thsi game has beautiful and like other DW games it is very addictive. The bad things are the new renbu system and the characters with the same moves.

    Graphics are excellent and still very fun to play even though it is repetitive but the annoying thing is the limited characters on Story Mode.

    5 games later and KOEI still hasn't put any effort into changing this game beyond what it was in Dynasty Warriors 2. The graphics are below PS3 and the 360's power, and the complete lack of any real progression in gameplay make this game almost interchangeable with the past iterations. If you're a huge fan, you'll probably buy it anyway. If you're looking to try out a Dynasty Warriors game for the first time, try one of the previous games, preferably either 3 or 5. They will be much cheaper and provide a slightly less monotonous experience. Expand

    Everyone tends to be so harsh on dynasty warriors, but the graphics in this game are pretty good, there's an insane amount going on, so much more than in previous dynasty warriors games, and the simple yet fun gameplay has deeper customization options. The new renbu system is also top!

    it is actually a good game from terms of gameplay and replayability. I cannot think of many games who can bring in more than 45 hours and more of play. A lot of reviewers just went through the first few levels mashing the square button and concluded that the game is too easy. Try playing medium/hard mode and many will find the game challenging in the mid to later levels where they have to pay attention to the objectives (carefully watch where key generals are moving) and fight with care against the generals. I'm not a hard core DW player but this version is quite good. real rating is 8.5. Expand

    This has got to be the stupidest f*cking game you could buy for the ps3. Know why? BECAUSE THEY'RE PRACTICALLY ALL THE SAME. Sure, new renbu system and it looks better, but still the same ol game.

    This is a good game, but why Dynasty Warriors 6's game style is different than another Dynasty Warriors series? Renbu, no Square>Triangle combination, and another.... But the story make me to beat this game...

  1. Hideous dialogue, repetitive gameplay.
  2. I guess Dynasty Warriors 6 is not the perfect harmony Koei or the fans were hoping for.
  3. Too bad it handles like a remote-control car, bolting from a stand-still to top speed in an instant. I'll pass. [Apr 2008, p.73]
