This has the same addictive quality of Diablo to me. You know the action is very repetitive, but you can’t help sit there and play through just one more mission. I usually don’t like strategy games because I enjoy focusing just on one character/party, rather than having to worry about what another group is doing on the other side of the field. This has my kind of mix then; you have to constantly pay attention to your army’s morale, and you should flip to the overall map to see which units are being overwhelmed. Basically, while you never have as much health as the enemy generals, you end up being the one to pretty much turn the tide of battle and so you have to constantly see which groups you must run and save. Fortunately, enemy generals tend to ride in on horses, so you can acquire transportation easily enough. :^DMy two "gripes" are there are so many names in every battle that it’s hard locating where you should go next; the only names that appear are the generals, not the supporting leaders. Also, I wish the friendly AI was a bit better; I’m always getting overwhelmed and no one has my back…but that’s why you’re the hero! Can’t wait to have a friend over to play 2-player cooperative!
THIS GAME IS NOT A TYPICAL ACTION GAME. DYNASTY WARRIORS 3 REQUIRES THE PLAYERS TO HAVE SOME DEGREE OF STRATEGIC GAME PLAN BEFORE STARTING THE GAME; THIS IS ESPECIALLY TRUE WHEN YOU PLAY MOSOU MODE OR WITH ANOTHER PLAYER IN COOPERATIVE MODE. WHEN I PLAY THIS GAME WITH MY FRIEND, WE STUDY THE MAP AND SELECT OUR TARGETS. AS THE GAME PROGRESS, WE FOLLOW OUR GAME PLAN TO CUT-OFF THE ENEMY HERE, OR HOLD OFF THE ENEMY WHILE THE OTHER PLAYER DEFEAT THE WEAK ENEMY GENERALS. IN THE COOPERATIVE MODE, ONE PLAYER’S FAILURE ENDS THE GAME, WHICH MEANS WE HAVE TO WATCH EACH OTHER’S BACK AS WELL. WITHOUT CHEAT CODES SUCH AS IN PS2 PLATFORM, WE HAD TO FOUGHT OUR WAY THROUGH EVERY BATTLE AND UNLOCK ADDITIONAL GENERAL AS WE PROGRESS. THE WHOLE PROCESS IS A LOT OF FUN, AND CERTAINLY INCREASES ITS REPLAY VALUE WHEN YOU USE NEW GENERALS.
I purchased DW3 several days ago and I have been very pleased with the purchase. It started out as a PS2 game that was ported over. Unfortanately they didn’t use the Xbox hardware to address some of the “fog” issues that prevents you from seeing more than 50 ft. in any direction.But that is a forgivable gripe as the overhead map keeps you informed as to where you need to be.The action is very intense with hundreds of very detailed soldiers, horses and even elephants try to take you and your friends down. You basically become a human lawnmower as you get your hands on more powerful weapons that allow you to cut huge swaths in the sea of men and armor.Succesfully blending RPG upgrade and power-up elements with the frenzied action of a real time strategy game, DW3 works very hard to keep you engaged and it succeeds very well in my opinion.Perhaps best of all is the value and depth of the game. There is so much to unlock here, so much to build up. Over 40 characters to choose from with various weapons and items.This is a game that just keeps on giving. I can’t think of another… adventure game for the Xbox that gives you so much for your money.It’s not perfect, some of the stages are a little sparse and trying to do battle from horseback takes some getting use to.But overall, the action, graphics and scope of the game make it an excellent buy.
First Time Players: A real problem I run into with games is replay value. There comes a time when you’ve run Snake (for example) through the gauntlet so many times, with as much variation as possible, that the wonder wears right off. Doesn’t mean Metal Gear Solid isn’t fun, just means that once you’ve played it three times, it’s pretty much over.Dynasty Warriors 3 has enough variation to stave off the Replay Blues. Starting with fifteen or so characters, Free Mode and Musou Mode, a variety of weapons and items to use, this is the quick’n’dirty masterpiece for anyone who’s interested in hack-hack-hack-slash (with more hits at higher levels).The graphics are great, the action is smooth and while it takes a little learning (what doesn’t?) it’s a lot of fun to run around and kill hundreds of people the old fashioned way: Brutally.Watching a character improve is a real kick, as your attacks become more deadly, your life and musou levels grow and you just generally whup the [behind] of anyone foolish enough to cross your path.PS2 Players: The conversion is just fine. No graphic glitches that I’ve seen, slow-down hasn’t been a problem and all the items are in the same places as they were. Cheat codes are different (unless I did ’em wrong) but those will be out soon enough. And aren’t we strong enough to tough it out until then? Sure we are.For the game itself: 5 stars.For the conversion to X-Box: 5 stars.Well done, and about time.
I bought DW3 for PS2 as soon as it was released. I love the game, and it has a lot of replay value. But now, i am a little disappointed. XBOX released Dynasty Warriors 3, and i’m already seeing preview of Dynasty Warriors 4 for PS2, and no word of an XBOX version. While 3 is a great game, and this version does have some fun add-ons…such as extra costumes for each character, and the ability to choose a player character as your bodyguard…but still, i wish that Microsoft would have just waited until part 4 came out. This is a 5 star game, but in my opinion, it’s outdated, hence the one-star penalty.
The game was great! It always seemed like you never beat the game and had things to complete since new characters were always available.
I would mention some details about the game which other people haven’t mentioned. I would say there are a few bugs in the game, at least to me. I will call them the "off-fence bugs". In the stage of "Guan Yu’s Escape, at the last gate I knocked the last genenal Xiahou Dun off the cliff and I couldn’t find him no more. His position is still on both the radar and the map but he is down in the hill and won’t be able to get back. So I couldn’t kill (reach) him and was unable to finish the mission because the gate is closed without finishing him.Other situation of the bug is at the fence of the enemy camps, i.e. where there is gate captain, when you knocked out a general or officer off the fence, you can not get the meat bum or items from them. You can see the item but cannot reach it. It’s in the other side of the fence which you can not cross.Some details:It’s better not to play with the commander. If you use Sima Yi or Zhuge Liang and just sit at your HQ, you will be finished by your enemy soon. Your computer allies are stupid, in most situations they stay intact and will be eliminated by the enemy. You have to finish all the enemy officers yourself. There’s certain way to finish every stage. I tried different ways in playing Yi Ling and Wu Zhang Plains in Difficult mode. But either lots of my allies died or I ran out of time to save my commander Zhuge Liang. In Wu Zhang Plains I simply went to Sima Yi directly and finished him with trial and errors.
Thank you so much, came exactly as described.
dis game is da best ever. i played it on playstation 2 n it was da best. now since its comin out 4 xbox its gonna hab better graphics n it still has elephants which makes it really kool.
This game is great because you get to see enemies fly at the press of a few buttons. I have never played 1 or 2 and i’m glad i would probably say something like not another Dynasty Warrior game. But because i have only played this one it is really good for me:Pros: *Over 40 characters *Extremly Addictive *2 player coop *See enemies fly with the touch of a few buttons *Change bodyguards to officers *Cool items and new weaponsCons: *Repetitive *Poor 2 player vs modeJust something to finish off if u buy this game and want to complete it. It will take you a long time. I have finished the whole game with every character and still not got all weapons and items.
