    If you're new to the samurai warriors series then yea you might like it, but if you're fan you'll most likely till enjoy it, but yea if you're one who gets something new, it's not for you. Critics are just so dumb, most of them are people who only play part or just the demo of the game. They're not even gamers. I bet any casual gamers can beat them in anyIf you're new to the samurai warriors series then yea you might like it, but if you're fan you'll most likely till enjoy it, but yea if you're one who gets something new, it's not for you.

These critics shouldn't even be critiquing games at all. Well in my opinion this game was average, I've played most of them and they're quite fun, if you want some time to just hack n' slash something. Expand

    This was the first game I played of the Warrior series (I didn't even know Dynasty Warriors), and I have to say I enjoyed it a lot. WIth all the details on, it looks so much better than the PS2 version and plays at smoother framerate (even though you'll experience slowdowns if you have a slow gpu, and you don't get the patch, as the game seems to not skip frames at all).

Every character has a different story mode, and I loved playing with many of them, though it starts getting repetitive as many of the stages are shared with lots of characters
    9 is the score I would have given the game when I played it for days, but after playing so many Warriors games (Samurai Warriors 1, XL, 2 XL, 2 Empires, 3, Dynasty Warriors 4, 6) I somehow understand the complains of the critics... the game is a fun buttonmasher, and is also fun to play with someone, it's a rather simple game, but it's fun.

    I always loves the Warriors genre. Sure th ey all may be the same, and very little changes from time to time, but sometimes you just need to chill and play a simpæe game, where you can just unleash everything you have and go crazy on the enemy. It does look cool, like all the Warriors games, the characters, armors, weapons, and it is a middle age game, so if you like these kind of things,I always loves the Warriors genre.

    Samurai Warriors 2 is a bottle of Saki that's well past its sell-by date.

    Slightly fun, but only in the most stupid definition of that word. [Sept 2008, p.115]
