DualShockers writers, "...Where Dynasty Warriors: Strikeforce shows promise is its integration of RPG elements into the slash action genre, pick up and kill functionality, and strategic setup of missions and boss fights. Although the game does give the player a sense of purpose, the storytelling in this franchise has needed a major reboot for a long time now. The strategic elements added to the level design are great, but sometimes seem more like hard work than fun on single player mode. Taking this game online for co-op was pretty great, but again the strategic aspect of this game becomes fairly simple once you figure out the mission at hand. The game has weapon specific special attacks (between one to three per weapon) which are powerful, useful, and cool, but there are not enough of them and it becomes repetitive solving various situations the same way. Dynasty Warriors fans will love this game, but a lot is holding..."
Dynasty Warriors 6 was a controversial game that took the Warriors series in a much needed new direction. Can Dynasty Warriors 9 do the same?
DW9 came out a few years ago and was not met with kindness. You mean 10. DW6 was not a good direction at all but DW6Empires was alright by me.
What i remember from DW6 was alot of characters who had unique weapons in the previous games ended up with either a spear, sword or bow. Some that come to mind was the guy with the claw like Vega from street fighter, the guy with tonfas, the guy with the samurai sword and the chick with the bladed rings, all cool weapons changed to generic sword, bow or spear.
The spinoff strikeforce was pretty cool.

It may not be the first entry in the series, but as a long-standing series that has had a longer lifespan than even Xbox itself, Dynasty Warriors 6 is certainly no bad place to start."

Well, the Xbox Live Deals With Gold and Spotlight Sale for 13th-19th Feb 2018 is now with us and even more Xbox One and Xbox 360 games have been reduced in price - this time though we are also seeing a huge amount of 2K games being included. Want to check out the full list of bargains for the week ahead?"
Well written review, imo. It's just too bad that Dynasty Warriors has been falling off :\
I kinda saw this one coming. The series is in dire need of a reboot, and porting a handheld title to a console isn't it.
i think i need to buy this game.
Good review. May have to check it out.
This game reminds me of mystic heros love that game. Playb3yond
