  1. Overall this game will provide a repetitive and dull experience for the majority of players but like always fans of the genre will still find much enjoyment beyond the glaring flaws.

    Warriors Orochi is really only for the hardcore fans of the Dynasty Warriors and Samurai Warriors franchises. We freely admit that we’re not one of those. You either like it or you don’t. You either care about the story or you don’t. Put Average Joe Gamer and this reviewer down in the “don’t” column.
  3. If you've played one button mashing Warriors game, you've played this one as well.

    The genre's game of choice, but the better game of a bad, bad mix. Forget about it. [Dec 2007, p.85]
  5. It is not something that we can recommend experiencing, as even for fans this instalment does little to push ahead or celebrate both games.
  6. It wouldn't even set the last generation of consoles alight.
  7. Do not play Warriors Orochi. You'll be in desperate need of high-caliber pain-killers to stomach all that cheese.

    It's great. It's the best game I've ever seen. The picture is exquisite, the movement is smooth, and the design is exquisite.

    The progression system was busted, you actually had to get every single character to max level to actually max level any individual character.The progression system was busted, you actually had to get every single character to max level to actually max level any individual character. Anyway, it was the game with the most playable characters I have ever played, just insane. But, if you played both DW and SW, there is not much to discover here. Still, had a lot of fun with it.

    Well it was a splendid experience =) Considering the age i was playing it, the impression was even more solid.
