other than some strategy its the same thing

User Rating: 7.5 | Shin Sangoku Musou 4 Empires X360
Gameplay: there is no new things to add to moves. all of it is the same as dynasty warriors 5 but with the new strategy it gets better. With the new policies and tactics the game isn;t just about killing as many people as you can and then kill the leader. In empires you have a higher chance of losing then you do in rather of dw5 since you'll be outnumbered sometimes and your troop account will effect if you win or not. The normal solo man kill as much people as you can wont help that much as in the original.

Graphics-In dynasty warriors terms this is a big leap from dynasty warriors 5 on the original xbox. In 360 though this game doesn't look that good compared to other games on the 360. Dynasty warriors isn't a awe inspiring master piece when it comes to graphics.

Sound-some voices have been altered and now sound less cheesy but some such as Xu zhus still remain in this game which takes away any seriousness feeling that make you think this was actually ancient china. The dolby surround sound makes dynasty warriors sound much better though. Also you can choose from dynasty warriors songs from other series than just dw5 or you can just play some music on your HDD.

Value-After you finish your first empire scenario you wont get bored. There are 5 other scenarios you can play as well.

Tilt-there really isn;t a storyline to dw5E other than everyone wants to unify china under there rule
