    If you already like Dynasty Warriors and have friends that do, or just a strong masochistic streak with regards to challenge, then it's a definite buy.

    It's much better with friends. [July 2009, p.97]

    Yes, it's a button-masher, but nobody does button-mashing quite as well as KOEI with Dynasty Warriors, and Strikeforce gets more important things right (great animation, fluid controls, good weapon variety, PSP-sized missions) than it gets wrong.

    Dynasty Warriors Strikeforce definitely has the same appeal (or lack thereof depending on your point of view) of its predecessors, but its long list of characters, upgradable attacks, varied weapons and bonus missions gives the series the kick in the ass it has so desperately needed for the last few years.

    This entertaining hack-and-slash game is best played with a few friends.

    The core Dynasty combat system has needed a serious shaking-up for years now, and even the new RPG-style character-building element isn't enough to fix that. [July 2009, p.83]

    I bought this game, and i recommend this game. Oh my god, a perpetual world? Customisable generals? Aerial battles? This game shocked me with I bought this game, and i recommend this game. Oh my god, a perpetual world? Customisable generals? Aerial battles? This game shocked me with its successful innovations, but sadly, in true KOEI style, one step forward just provides momentum so they can leap backwards. A difficulty setting has been incorporated into EVERY DW game since DW2, except for this one. I'm good at the DW games, probably depressingly good, but I couldn't even pass the YELLOW TURBAN REBELLION (First level) because it was just that hard, so if you dont have friends, it's almost impossible, but with some friends, it's just awesome! Friends with PSPs? a must buy. Only one you know with a PSP? Decide how badly you don't want to break your PSP's cute little screen in half.… Expand
