Another addition to Dynasty Warriors series

Strengths: Great graphic details! More characters to choose from! More maps and detailed environments! More weapons with different attributes to enhance players' characters! Included few fun mini-games!

Weakness: Based on history, story lines remain relatively unchanged, which made game repetitive. Bodyguard system is not as good as before. Characters have to be unlocked before using them. Poor voice over.

Fifth installment of Dynasty Warriors game released in US and fourth one that is presented on PS2. The graphic details have been improved over previous games in the series without major slow downs. There are more characters available to choose from, even those that are previously unavailable for story mode are possible for use this time. The only down side is that it gets tedious trying to unlock...

Dynasty Warriors 5

Strengths: Pretty characters, Nice graphics, More hack and slash action!

Weakness: Similar to the other Dynasty Warriors game

Like the previous Dynasty Warrior games, this is a hack and slash game with large levels and lots of enemies to destroy. The graphics and sound are really nice compared to the older games in the series. The story is OK. The game is fun to play with friends and is rather difficult on the hardest setting. Overall a fun game that will consume hours of your time. A must have if you are a fan of hack...

A good, if formulaic game.

Strengths: Lots of enemies to fight at once, excellent setting

Weakness: Repetitive, not much different from DW4

DW5 is a beat-em-up game set in Ancient China. With an expansive cast and large number of stages, you will be fighting across China against vast numbers of enemies. To do this, you will be pushing Square. A lot. If you've played other Dynasty Warriors games, you know exactly what to expect. The battlefield has been enlarged, there's no more slowdown and even more enemies pack the screen. However,...

Dynasty Warriors 5! Whoohoo!

Strengths: The Draw distance issue is better than any other series, meaning you can see farther and stuff won't just "appear" out of nowhere.

Weakness: All in all, it's pretty much like the other DW games.

This game is great for anyone who likes hack n' slash games. Also, if you're even slighty interested in ancient China's history, this game might be for you. You won't learn much really, but it's a plus when you can use famous people from Chinese history. The only complaint is it's pretty much like other DW games, from a mainstream gamer's point of view.

Dynasty Warriors 5

Strengths: A very good action game especially with two players.

Weakness: Very similar to other games in the series.

Dynasty Warriors 5 is very similar to the other games in the series with some minor improvements. It is one of the best games for fighting epic battles on any system. If you have never played a dynasty warriors title then get this one immediately. If you have played others then it is still good if you have not grown bored of the formula/setting for the game already.

A decent action game

Strengths: A decent action game - large cast of playable characters means everyone can find a favorite.

Weakness: Not much has changed in the formula - AI needs improving.

Dynasty Warriors 5 carries on the great tradition of other games in the series. Choose a warrior and lead your side to greatness, in vast maps where your involvement can greatly change the outcome. The game is loosely based on history, and the characters themselves all have unique and distinct personalities. The game is largely a hack and slash - it will be you fighting around 30 - 50 troops at a...

Dynasty Warriors 5

Strengths: Addictive gameplay

Weakness: More of an expansion than a sequel, could of used better graphics

If you're not tired of the Dynasty Warriors games by, you probably never will be. This new chapter in the series offers up more of the same hack'n'slash gameplay similar to the previous games in the series. There is nothing really new to this version; it's mostly just a slightly enhanced version of Dynasty Warriors 4 with just enough new additions to keep hardcore fans of the series satisfied. I...

A fun hack/slash

Strengths: Play as one of 48 characters, perform some cool combo attacks, and search for hidden weapons.

Weakness: In order to see the full story, you have to play as each of the 48 characters... that's a lot of playing time!

Let me start off by saying this is the first Dynasty Warriors game I have played. That being said, I had a lot of fun with this title. The point of the game is to choose your starting character and then change the tide of war as you fight through hoards of armies, taking out captains, officers, and other important figures. You get to have a bodyguard to help you fight as you conquer evrything in...

Dynasty Warriors 5

Strengths: Keeps to the Dynasty Warrior franchise, has great visuals. Music is way better than in DW4.

Weakness: Dynasty Warriors 5 is pretty easy to play through and doesn't have too much depth. Not much has changed since DW 3 and 4 besides graphics/music. Gameplay is pretty much the same.

As always with the DW series, this game is a great hack and slash for anyone who just likes to take and sword and slash at hundreds of opponents. Very easy to get anyone to play and any kid who walks up to this game will easily be intrigued by its ease of use. More mature individuals will take to heart the background story behind this which entails the fight between who gains control of ancient...

Dynasty Warriors 5

Time flies when you’re having fun, and few things are more fun than videogames. It doesn’t seem like that long ago that KOEI released Dynasty Warriors 2. At that time, each day was a struggle to see how much time I could steal away to play through the different PS2 launch games. Whether it was skipping class (which I am now highly opposed to!), or locking myself in the basement with a few...

Dynasty Warriors 5

With the release of Dynasty Warriors 5, KOEI is putting out its 10th Warriors game on consoles if you include the Samurai Warriors titles. It's been a crazy amount of hacking and slashing and the relentless pace has by no means stopped with this title. The gameplay has been tweaked and refined just a little further to make this a new enough experience even if the core game hasn't changed all that...
