KOEI Using Warriors: Legends of Troy As A Prototype

Gaming Union writes "KOEI are well known for their Warriors franchise, with there being Dynasty Warriors, Samurai Warriors and Warriors Orichi. However, all of these games have been directly focused towards a Japanese audience and any sales in the Western world have been seen as a bonus.

Warriors: Legends of Troy is going to be completely the opposite though, and KOEI are effectively using it as a prototype to see how well they can do if a game is specifically targeted towards a Western audience. "

Not too sure about this yet, the chinese approach always appealed to me as a "westerner" this doesn't so much, guess I'll have to keep an eye on it though.

It "could" be really good, but I want to actually see more about the game first.

Hector, Achilles, Paris, Odysseus, etc..
Greeks and Trojans, and the Trojan war.

I think this game is the best KOEI game for the western audience.

Is No More Heroes Red Zone the same as NMH Paradise, or is it a different game not released in the West?

Dark_Overlord4326d ago

Same game, but the Jap version is censored :)

IAmLee4326d ago

nothing really spectacular there.

ScubbaSteve4326d ago

They should release a "the best" jp version of Vesperia and then just subtly add some English subtitles. That might get around any contract they have with Microsoft to not publish the game in NA.

Cosmo8114326d ago

I would pay extra money to NOT have that godawful "the best" border around the game. original boxart please

Dark_Overlord4326d ago

That's why I've never bought a platinum range (what they're called in the UK) game, the boxes are FUGLY

Here in the third instalment of 2011’s ‘The Twelve Games of Christmas’ series we arrive at March, a shockingly busy month for releases of questionable quality. Of course, as is always the case, there were a few diamonds in the rough, as was aptly described by the Nintendo 3DS launch line-up.
