Dynasty Warriors 2

"Tony's Dynasty Warriors 2 Review"

Been a proud owner of the PS2, I've found out that there was very few games that really attracts my attention, except for this one, Dynasty Warriors 2. Its one of those games where you walk around in a HUGE battle field and you kill virtually anything you see. You get to choose 29 Generals in total (Including all the secret characters) and they all belong in three kingdoms that you will play for. Each Kingdom has different missions which makes its replay value quite high. and the nice graphics (except for some slowdowns when the action gets too hot)are the best.

The game itself is really nice. with a good story to follow (if you know jap that is...) and the in game actions are just plain addictive cause you get to kill around 200-1000 people per battle. theres about 7 battles(I think)per kingdom and each kingdom has its own sets of missions. Some of the missions will be the same but the starting locations will be different. You get to fight at night or day, Rain or Shine. and the special effects are pretty cool. You can also use Arrows to shot down people no matter who you are using PLUS you get to ride horses and run other people down!
You can use special moves when you are surrounded to break out and all that is just plain fun.

Last words... IF you have a playstation2 and you like Hack n slash action games, then this is the one for you! DEFINITELY!

Graphics :4/5 Its all good except for some slowdowns

Sounds: 4/5 great sounds of people dying and the music. Nothing TOO inspired though.

Control: 3.5/5its good except for the awkward Camera angles.

Overall: 5/5 one of the most addictive games out for the PS2 now
