    I've really enjoyed this game. While not very advanced, I find the simplicity of the controls refreshing, as I don't have to mash buttons trying to find different combinations for attacks. The graphics aren't stunning, but the game has enough hook to keep me coming back for more. As a bonus, my son loves to play as well!

    Dull and predictable gameplay. Avoid. [Oct 2006, p.90]

    Samurai Warriors 2 offers nothing new over any other single-button-mashing sequel. Pass. [Oct. 2006, p.110]

    More compelling than "Ninety-Nine Nights," but that's not saying much. The graphics are disappointing and the audio should've been left in its original Japanese. Truly, with CG sequences this good, the use of cheap SoCal voice talent removes any sense of immersion.
