    Usually I love this kind of game but for what ever reason I couldn't get into this title. I absolutely adored the first chronicles game, so I'm annoyed that I don't absolutely love this game. Don't get me wrong I love all of the changes they made story wise adding in if scenarios. But I think my main issue is that they didn't change up the protagonist. The fighting style is the same and soUsually I love this kind of game but for what ever reason I couldn't get into this title.

But I think my main issue is that they didn't change up the protagonist. The fighting style is the same and so is the look unless you choose to change it. You can have other weapons sure if you get a high enough friendship with the character with the weapon you want, but even then you basically just become a clone of that character that looks a little different.… Expand

    If you are looking for an exclusive Warriors game on the go, then Samurai Warriors Chronicles 3 is just about fine to fill the void, but in the back of your mind, you will be thinking that this is second fiddle to the great game on home consoles.

    Does that mean you should give Samurai Warriors Chronicles 3 a chance if you've previously written off musou games? Probably not; it's different, but it's not that different. It's also, however, a very, very good musou game that was clearly made to be played on the Vita, which means that if you tried one of the previous handheld entries and weren't impressed, that's not a reason to write this one off, too.

    It lacks that something that really makes it unique, but we've enjoyed our time with SWC 3. There aren't too many games like this on handhelds, so it is indeed a great choice.
