Readers you have to get this game. Same plot as Dynasty warriors 3. Pick a dynasty complete the campaign. In this game you can create a custom player, edit his looks and his bodyguards. You can play 1v1 with a friend or 2 player coop. I strongly reccomend this game.

Fun!!

You go around as a warrior in ancient China, slaying your enemies and using different tactics, i guess.. but basically I go on a slaying spree, it's awesome. You can ride on horses and even elephants.. and there's 3 kingdoms and some others.. and there's alot of different characters to choose from. I can play this game for hours. IT'S LOTS OF FUN!!

Do you know how great this game is?!?! I love the fact that you can create your own officers. But, then again, I love any game where you can create players. The gameplay and graphics are so much better than 3, and I like being able to earn guys like Cao Ren. They rock! Basically what I'm trying to say is that compared to this game, Dynasty 3 sucks.

Some better, some not

Great game, kept alot of the great things but blundered on just a couple. Huang Gai is jacked up on the grenade toss, where's the choice of language spoken, and some events like Sun Jians's death not appearing. Other than that they did a great job with adding a few new types of cut scene, varying just a few attacks, and giving LuBu a mosou mode. New characters Zhou Tai, Cao Ren, and the edit officers are a big plus so I'd rather give the game a 4.5. I recommend it for those who were really good at 3 but need a new challenge. I was getting to the point where I'd take a new general to a level on hard to earn 3rd weapons before beating mosou mode with them, so the new challenges are great.

WOOT, but your paying an extra 50 for character creation

backround- this game takes place at a time with different dynastys, you can choose a real warrior, or create your own (dyn 4 exclusivley), this is a must have for people who are un aware of the game series.

My opinoin- SUPERB- i love the series, so many characters and so much replay value, you can take on literaly thousands of enemies and with red, blue, and green dynasties, you can play throug the literaly 40 something characters roles and see different dynasties fall, rise and see your own character develop

PROs

among best 3rd person games,
intense combat
character CREATION
unlockable characters so the game dosen't get stale
beautiful cinematics
can actual help you on your history quiz (all the characters and battles were real)

coop AND vs mode

cons-
if you have 3, basically your paying 50$ for the character customization and like 5 new ppl

you will only want to play a level or two at a time due to the fact that it's the same thing. but it's still fun

It might be a good game.

This might be a fun game, I honestly don't know and I will never find out. When my roomate rented this game I couldn't get passed the annoying sound track. What idiotic game developer decided that there was hard rock in Imperial China? And if there was, who decided that it was such stupid, glaringly bad hard rock? Every time that someone in the house played this game the music made me want to destroy the disk. I don't know if there's an option to turn down the music on this game, but I didn't want to find out, the music is so bad that the very thought of taking time to play the game made me ill. So, in short this game is cool in theory, but in practice I find it almost impossible to get past the banal "Heavy Metal" sound track. Shame on KOEI for expecting people to swallow such tripe!

Dynasty Warriors 4 - XBOX

In short, 5 minutes into the game I thought I had just wasted $50... 2 hours later I had decided it was a good purchase.

Having never played (or even heard of) any games in this series I picked it up over reading mixed reviews and mainly got it because it sounded like it had good replay value (which it does). Like most games these days, it has many levels, modes, characters, and things that get unlocked the further you progress in the game (like new characters). It is basically a hack and slash game which makes it very easy to pick up and play, but getting your bearings travelling around the map took a little getting used to. After that you can quickly become an expert. So, the +'s, there are tons of characters so it never really gets old, even though you basically do the same stuff every mission, but it's the leveling up of characters spec's and weapons that keep me playing. Also, a BIG plus in my book is Cooperative Mode so you can play with someone less experienced and they can still have fun because you can save their butt if they get in trouble. This is good because playing someone head to head gets boring quickly if they don't know how to play and most games take time to learn player's moves (although not so in this game). There are lots of mode's including one on one match up battles like a 3-D fighter game, although if you are looking for that look elsewhere because that is not what this game is about and therefore does not excel in this category.

Basically you run around and beat people up and score better leveling-up points by killing enemy officers and lots of enemy troops. Does the game take lots of skill? I'd say no, but that doesn't detract from the fun of picking it up and beating the crap out of an enemy horde. The framerate does slow up a bit when there gets to be lots of people on the screen but it's really not that bad. The only other gripe I have is sometimes it's hard to see the enemy commander you want to attack if they're surrounded by both your allies and his own troops, but hey that's war right? All in all it is really fun to play. Don't be deterred by a low rating, because the game is the 4th in the series and since not much has changed most reviewers mark it down. On its own it is a great game to play and has kept me obsessed for the past 3-days. Expect to sit down for at least 30 minutes at a time, but don't be surprised if you get up 3 hours later wondering why you're hungry because you forgot to eat dinner.

I am very satisfied with this purchase and only have trouble deciding which character I want to be. (Not that it matters, but I am in my early 20's and out of college; it is my opinion that this game would be fun for both teens and adults).

Great!!!

First off, if you already own Dynasty Warriors 3, then do not buy this game. But if you have never played Dynasty Warriors, then Dynast Warriors 4 is the best to start out with. This is a great hack & slash game! You get to ride horses & elephants, and there are about 40 different characters to unlock in the game. The downside to the game is that there is some slow-down in large fights, and the game will take a ridiculously long time to beat & unlock all the items and characters. But it is a great game!

awsome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dynasty Warriors 4 is easily the best game to come out of Koei since their very first arcade titles. The game which is based on the great series "Romance and the Three Kingdoms" by Luo Guanzhong is a fast-paced 3rd person hack and slash, but is done with so much grace that it cannot be overlooked. While the gameplay is a little to simple to master, and the difficulties don't differ very much, this game is awesome. With over 40 characters to pick from, 42 to be exact, and different divisions to control (Wei, Shu, Wu) this game can be played over and over again without the player getting bored. Grab a friend and master the whole game in cooperative mode, or dual him in intense one vs. one battles. With unique weapons that belong to each character, a level system to track your players progress, and 4 endings for each division, this game will have you playing over and over to power up your favorite characters. A highly addictive game that will have you sweating when your done. The best of its series, keep them coming Koei!
