Dynasty Warriors 7 (huge list of new shit)/Samurai Warriors 3 XL/Z
Since the DW list I'ma post is long, I'll start with Samurai Warriors, but the DW bit is the meat of this.
Samurai Warriors 3 XL was released in Japan this month, along with SW3Z for the Playstation 3. This is good news for anyone who likes beating the fuck out of Japs but doesn't own a Wii. 3Z is like XL, only integrated into thhe original title because there was no base disc for 3 on the PS3. No 360 version, but there rarely is in Japan. If it's released in the US, expect an XBox version to hit. Now, DW7. After 6 gayed up characters and added that awful Renbu system, I was skeptical, but with this list of changes and features provided by Koei Warriors, I can honestly say this is the first Warriors title I've been truly excited for since the first SW. Will it live up to the hype? Will it be a new experience? I don't know, but this is probably the boldest attempt Koei's made in years and years. Most notable, before I go further, is the expansion of the storyline to the end of the RotK era and the inclusion of Jin as a faction. Prior to this, there have been the 3 factions (Wu, Wei, Shu) and "Other" (Lu Bu and co). The inclusion of Jin means new stories. Thank fuck. Also, I want to fucking fight alongside a giant Panda. http://koeiwarriors.co.uk/dw7-gameinfo.php Story Updates
