    The gameplay model developed by Omega Force still works great and if you’re into it, you’ll find it hard to leave this game. It’s a shame that the PC version was ported from PS3, not PS4, and there’s no original Japanese voice acting. [07/2014, p.62]

Game for one is missing online multiplayer, also is an inferior port resulting in a noticeable drop in graphics quality specially textures, there's no Japanese audio free or otherwise at all, lastly it's missing any actual DLCs since they only packaged in free DLCs (excluding Japanese audio) and not the other 80% of DLCs that are available. Complete edition this is not, if they'd bother naming it super special deluxe premium plus edition wouldn't really care. However it's named complete edition, and isn't even anywhere near complete.

    As for the game itself, it is Dynasty Warriors 8 bundled with Xtreme Legends and a couple DLCs that were already free to begin with. Textures are low, environment and rendering's average at best, and fps is consistent so there is that. So if you were just looking for Dynasty Warriors 8 Xtreme Legends minus everything mentioned above, sure this will do since it's also the only one available. However if you were expecting a complete edition, this isn't it.    … Full Review »

    its PS3/PS4 gfx and it does run at 60 fps if you know how to set it up right there is also going to be a lot of zeros here because of no online multiplayer or they could not boot the game which they should not review until they set it up right or at least play it >:( also you will need to play with the controller settings because the default is all backwards ("controller required, xinput")...

    i like the game it runs just fine for me at max and looks good enough, they have a funny definition for complete edition because it does not have much paid dlc except for BGM packs.. multiplayer is local split-screen co-op only so i'm not too fussy about it its a SP game anyway..no chinese voice overs settings well have to wait to see if any dlc pops up in steam later,, i would give it a 8.5 / 10 but ill go for 9 i played DW3 XL 100% and DW7 back in the day so i'm not new to DW and this makes for a great return to the good old mindless hack n slash days :)    … Full Review »
