    Xtreme Legends, though, is a proposition only for the hardcore Warriors fan or at a bargain basement price. With the original Dynasty Warriors 7 now reduced, picking up this package that arguably has less compelling content and asks for the original disc for some of its modes seems crazy. If you're just looking for some mindless hacking and slashing, though, this'll do fine.

    Xtreme Legends adds more game modes to the ones offered in Dynasty Warriors 7, completing what was missing in the main game and adding new characters and stories to the Three Kingdoms scenario. Full of unlockable content, what the game lacks it's the same as every other Dynasty Warrior game, if you don't love its repetitive gameplay, you'll hate it.

    Dynasty Warriors 7: Xtreme Legends is a very good expansion pack

    There's plenty of game here, but as we've seen so much of it before, Dynasty Warriors 7: Xtreme Legends still feels overpriced.

    Essentially more of the same.

    There's a lot of content here if you enjoy the standard games and want to unlock everything, but not enough of a change here to sway non DW fans into checking this out.

    A game only recommended for fans of the series, who will find the addition of a two-player option for every mode, and the interesting Legend mode. But to enjoy the story you must have the original game, so this stand-alone expansion will be enjoyed by those who acquired Dynasty Warriors 7, and those who didn't would rather start there.

    Ultimately, the rising popularity of DLC exposes what a shoddy business model Koei has with these expansions, and while there's still a lot of fun to be had for hack 'n slash fans, it's getting beyond the point where products like this have a place in the industry.

    The streamlined gameplay and polished visuals haven't incurred any detriment, but compared to what fans will be expecting, 7XL misses the mark, it's failure only made worse by the steep launch price.

    As impenetrable as ever for most people, this Dynasty Warriors 7 Xtreme Legends is first and foremost worst than the original version. It too heavily balanced on the "further in" experience, and completely forgets about the gamers who don't own the 7th episode, but without even succeeding in proposing somthing really worthwhile or essential to those who do. Only for the most hardcore fans.
