Dynasty Warriors 3: Xtreme Legends

" Dynasty Warriors games just keep getting better and better."

Before I start the review, I want to say this is a really great game and I think many people would like it.

Story 10/10
It's the same story as Dynasty Warriors 3, but with a few extra features. Each group (Wei,Wu,and Shu) is trying to rule China. Some forces may join together to win a war, but later on may fight against each other in a war. That’s the kind of things that make the game exciting.

Gameplay 10/10
Games like these are my favorite kind of games. This game allows you to find weapons and items. Not all of the weapon and items abilities are equal though. You have to keep searching until you have gotten the max level for your weapon and items. The fighting part of the game is really really god. The better weapon you have the more hits you can attack with (6 at the max). You can also ride horses and elephants to get to places faster.

Extra features
A new feature for your bodyguards is now available. You can now give them items, select their gender, and get them new weapons. Now you can now get 5th weapons to make your character even stronger than before. There are now four new challenge modes to choose from. Also you can now get a different costume for each character by achieving a certain goal. A brand new very hard difficulty is also in Dynasty Warriors Xtreme Legends.

Sound 10/10
The sound of every person you kill is very good. You won't miss one scream from each person you kill. And the sound of weapons clashing together is very good also. The horses neigh is also good. Really, this game has no problem with is sound effects. The music is good also.

Controls 10/10
Very basic. A simple six taps of the square button and a six hit combo. There are also other combos that include the triangle button.

Graphics 10/10
The graphics of this game are really good. More people should show up on the screen at once though. The cut scenes have very good graphics too.

Overall 10/10
This is a very good game for people who like hacking and slashing away. The kinds of games have always appeared perfect to me. If you ask me, I'd buy this game. It is a good thing if you have Dynasty Warriors 3 because Dynasty Warriors 3 Xtreme Legends is pretty much an expansion pack for Dynasty Warriors 3. So overall this is an excellent game that many people should enjoy.
