    Gameplay is still repetitive, but it's a lot of game for the money. [Holiday 2004, p.96]

    Just like all of its predecessors, in that it is all about taking a character, wading into combat, and decimating the enemy ranks.

    This game has been made strictly for the fans and it shows with tweaks and alterations in just about every area.

    You'd think after almost a half-dozen games, the Warriors franchise would get a little old, but the injection of Japanese flavor and history into an already familiar stew just makes it all the more irresistible.

    With simple controller schemes, this game is very accessible.

    This game is ideally suited for players looking to relive Samurai Warriors, or who are diving in for the first time. For anyone who got their fill of Samurai Warriors the first time around, there isn't enough here to warrant your attention.
  9. Worth Playing
    85
    For now, this is still the most fun you can have hitting random people with random things by the hundreds, while still whetting your appetite for more of the same.
