More of the Same

There is really no difference between dynasty warriors 6 and all of the other previous games. The major differences i see are improved graphics, more characters on screen at once, more enemies, and being able to call your horse to you. Those are probably the best new additions to the game. Swimming and climbing ladders i found to be largely useless. Breaking down gates is just cheesy. The updates in this game DO make it to be the best game of the series, BUT it is still just the same game i have been playing since dynasty warriors 3. In my opinion, they should have made all of these updates by DW4. By DW6 it should have been a whole new different game experience. But it hasnt changed a bit. The levels look different, but i know exactly what will happen in each of them. The characters look different, which is cool; but not that cool. It seems they have been turning the dynasty warriors into something a bit more whimsical. That sucks. I was hoping to see some seriously bad-ass armored huge guys but instead everyone just got a bit more fairy-taleish. Also, the voice acting and script is HORRIBLE. Its definitely holds the most cheesy lines in any of the DW games. Its a good game to rent, but definitely not to buy.
