The Great War Of China. Take 5.
Review of Dynasty Warriors 5 (PS2) by benraiben

Advantages: Each character has thier own story/ Plenty to unlock/ Great music/ Much better than DW4
Disadvantages: A couple of modes removed. Voice actors have been changed.

...familiar with the long running Dynasty Warrior series, the game is based in ancient times in China, where 3 Dynasties, Wu, Wei and Shu, do battle for their own various reasons. The game play has definitely improved and to say it is the same button-mash fest it was before shows how little time some are willing to spend with a game before they pass judgement on it. Although to be fair, you do still do a fair amount of button mashing. This game certainly ... Read review

Like A Dynasty Warriors 'Best Of...'
Review of Dynasty Warriors 5 (PS2) by tom1clare

Advantages: 48 characters, excellent presentation, enjoyable and entertaining, technically impressive, Musou Mode
Disadvantages: Unoriginal, simplistic and repetitive gameplay, dialogue is once again poor

...that is, the fifth 'main' Dynasty Warriors title. Having become something of a gaming sensation in recent years, Dynasty Warriors is the very definition of gaming marmite; you'll either hate it for its repetitive nature or love the simple, addictive action that feels like an old-skool arcade game dressed in spangly next-generation clothing. The question is - what's different from before? Dynasty Warriors 5 is a third-person hack 'n' slash title ... Read review

The Dynasty Warrior
Review of Dynasty Warriors 5 (PS2) by seanbv1

Advantages: Great Play Time, Plenty to unlock and to do
Disadvantages: Sound effects arent the best, Graphics may not appeal to some

The Dynasty Warriors series continues with this newest edition, Dynasty Warriors 5. Each of the Dynasty Warriors games are very much the same as each other, with subtle changes and extras. General Overview The storylines as you would expect are very similar to those of the earlier games, with the battles having the same ideas from the previous games. However each character has their unique musou storyline. Meaning that you may do the same maps ... Read review

Live By The Blade
Review of Dynasty Warriors 5 (PS2) by DBZKing

Advantages: Action packed | Loads of Characters | Storyline | Graphics
Disadvantages: Can be repetitive

...the Three Kingdoms series called Dynasty Warriors 5. Some of you know about Dynasty Warriors 3 and 4 in my previous reviews, but this game far surpasses both of them put together. Background Of The Three Kingdoms ******************************* There are a few different types of armies, 3 main ones, which are Shu (Liu Bei's Army), Wu (Sun Jian's Army) and Wei (Cao Cao's Army). They are all as powerful as each other, and they have many generals ... Read review

Fighting in Ancient China
Review of Dynasty Warriors 5 (PS2) by fuzzybear967

Advantages: Great strategy and fight game
Disadvantages: Fighting a little repetitive

It seems as though the Dynasty Warriors series has been around for as long as there have been video games, amongst the reasons for its success are its ability to constantly deliver a quality product that is combined with addictive game play that at it's most basic level is damn good fun. It is accepted that after an hours play you will be at risk of developing RSI from the repetitive button mashing as you hack and slash you way through hordes of ... Read review

Lu Bu is here! Again. Again......
Review of Dynasty Warriors 5 (PS2) by daino05

Advantages: Loads of characters with loads of new weapons!
Disadvantages: None that I can think of.

Dynasty Warriors. A great game by anyones standards! once more KOEI have done it again! produced a masterpiece, perfectly representing feudal China. I am thoroughly impressed once again. For those that have never played a Dynasty Warriors game they are basically set in feudal China, during the period of the 3 kingdoms - (Wei,Wu and Shu) The game style is a strategy game/ 3rd person hacking! Great fun if you play own your own or with a friend! ... Read review

Dynasty Warriors 5
Review of Dynasty Warriors 5 (PS2) by pharno322

Advantages: action button basher
Disadvantages: no

...mean always, be a new Dynasty Warriors game each and every year. Koei's 800-pound gorilla of a game franchise continues to come back time and time again, making just enough slight changes to the overall framework of the gameplay to please the series' fan base. However, while that's managed to work well enough over the years, with the fifth official entry in the series (not counting all the Xtreme Legends and other spin-offs), the Dynasty Warriors ...
