If you've played one, you know that each version: a) pitches you, a powerful warrior, against hundreds -- if not thousands -- of generally stupid A.I. opponents; b) contains loads of glorified historical figures; and c) could possibly wear out your controller due to all the button-mashing. Series newcomer Warriors Orochi -- this one on the PSP -- sticks to the same love-it-or-hate-it model, with a few new features that make the experience more enjoyable for longtime Warriors lovers.
Chances are, you find the Warriors games' combat system either extremely addictive or incredibly boring. Orochi won't change your mind either way, but the additions add some new wrinkles. The biggest one: the ability to take multiple characters into each battle and switch between them on the fly. New characters unlock throughout the game, allowing you to tweak your three-man team roster between missions. Each character falls into Power, Technique, and Speed-based classes, each with different attacks; unfortunately, the only major difference between them is the Speed characters' aerial vault, which allows them to move across the map faster. While it's disappointing that the classes aren't wildly varied, two extra health bars (and the change of scenery with your attack animations) make a noticeable difference when grinding through 1,000 enemies."
Evan discusses how trophies and achievements can add or take away from value and gaming experiences.
Trophies are always iffy for me. I'd rather gain unlockable weapons and modes from completing a game if I had to choose but very rare that a modern game offers both.
The Japanese branch of Sony Computer Entertainment today revealed the HDD space requirements in addition to some screens on the latest batch of Japanese PS2 Classics games.
i kinda liked this game even thought it wasnt really a silent hill game. i guess silent hill fans hated this game because they got tricked. i guess for the people who disliked it maybe they should thik of this game as a horro game and not part of silent hill.
@kte
good thing they released sh2&3?
didnt 90% of the ppl hate the hd version and prefer the original? voice acting, bugs, framerate and graphical glitches messed up the game big time apparently
Silent hill 4 wasn't that bad just different .i like it a lot better then the newer ones that have come out .that Panopticon prison was I found really interesting
"Warriors Orochi is one of the more entertaining games to come out for the PSP. People who’ve played the Dynasty/Samurai Warriors series have always wondered what would happen if these worlds would collide; and Koei delivers by mahshing the two brands together into one meaty package."
