Probably the best in series?

Odds are you already know what Dynasty Warriors is all about. But, for the sake of those who haven't been following along over the last few years, here's all you need to know. The setting is ancient China, the playable characters are a veritable ensemble cast of legendary Chinese warriors (dressed up in fancy-pants, anime-inspired costumes), and the gameplay pretty much consists of you cutting your way through hundreds upon hundreds of enemies. That's how it's been for years now, and DW5 is absolutely no different. There are 48 playable characters in the game (most of which have to be unlocked, and six of which are totally new to the series), and they're all based on some figure from the war-torn period from Chinese history in which Dynasty Warriors lives year-round.

Bad= Poor gameplay

Good=48 playable characters, each with his or her own unique storyline.
