About:
Set in Ancient China during the 3rd century, Dynasty Warriors 6 immerses gamers in a truly cinematic kung-fu action experience. Celebrated characters have been completely re-imagined with new weapons and fighting techniques motion-captured from some of today's leading stuntmen and women in Asia. With the game's new "Renbu" attack system and game controls, players can execute lightning-fast combos and the most dazzling fighting moves with ease.

Developed from the ground up exclusively for next-generation platforms, the game's proprietary engine delivers the most chaotic and challenging Tactical Action experience to date. Players can use the landscape to elude the thousands of soldiers swarming the battlefield. But as players move and attack, adaptable enemy A.I. devises offensive and defensive combat tactics, and can retaliate with packs of fierce hunting dogs and patrol boats. All of the explosive action comes to life in high definition, 60 frames per second (fps) graphics.

Based on the epic novel, Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Dynasty Warriors 6 depicts the massive battles ignited by the fall of the Han Dynasty when three rebellious states moved to overthrow the Emperor of China.

Features:
Developed from the ground up exclusively for next-generation platforms, the breakthrough proprietary engine reinvents the Tactical Action experience and delivers the most chaotic and challenging battles to date.
Fighting techniques motion-captured from some of Asia's leading stunt performers create the fluid look and feel of a modern kung-fu action film.
Celebrated characters are completely re-designed with new weapons and signature combat techniques.
More immersive environments where players can swim, climb and use the landscape to elude the hordes of soldiers swarming the battlefield. Climb atop fortress walls and jump into the middle of a crowded camp for a surprise assault, then escape on horseback to retreat to safety.
Innovative and unpredictable Tactical Action objectives blend seamlessly with the fast and intuitive melee combat. Storm battlefield strongholds by destroying massive gates, go on missions to destroy enemy weapons, and defend allied military units from assault. Exploit certain targets for extra items and points.
Enemy unit A.I. adapts to player combat tactics, and can track players with tigers on land and patrol boats on water.
New skill map feature allows players to determine how a character develops.
With the game's new "Rendu" attack system and game controls, players can execute lightning-fast combos and the most dazzling cinematic fighting moves with ease.
Partner with a friend in two-player co-operative gameplay (offline) and charge the battlefield as a team.
Fight for the top spot with the Challenge Mode's Online Rankings.
Breathtaking visuals in 720p HDTV and 60 frames per second (fps) graphics, with in-game Dolby Digital audio.

I cant wait it looks brilliant, i was a big fan of the other ones (except the empire series) and its already on my preorder list. It looks a lot like DW 4 with updated graphics and lots of extra stuff, like you can do sneak attacks and ambush the enemy:D Also swim and at last go up ladders. Only 8 days to go it should be here friday so 3 days of gaming before work:)
 
All the same since number 4 was released on PS2 with coop..

Ill pick it up but not untill i get a nice cheap price.
 
Looks interesting - stopped getting DW after Dynasty Warriors 4 - was just all the same. Some of the new features look cool too.
 
I'm going to keep an eye on people's reactions to it :) Never played a DW game but I played Bladestorm by Koei and absolutely loved it.
 
Can't wait for this, first pre-order of the year for me. Cheapest I've seen it online is £29.99 delivered.

It's all about the 2 player co-op... hours and hours of fun leveling up your characters and killing thousands of peasants :p

If they deceide to release expansions like they did for 4 and 5 (Empires and Xtreme Legends) it would be good if they released them via PSN (or Xbox Live but I guess the game size limit would prevent this) so you just have the orignal game disc then load up whichever expansion you wanted off the hard disc with no further fuss.
 
Cant wait for this! Havent bought one since number 4 like a lot of people here seem to have done as it all got a bit samey but the new features look excellent.

Bladestorm was good but DW just has that awesome feeling of taking on entire armies single handedly :D
 
MY COPY IS HERE:D

Just playing through first battle, and nearly got into the castle. And who did i see come crashing out of the ground, Lu Bu:eek: I ran my ass off tried to take him on killed me in 2 hits:p Not strong enough for him yet but i will be.
 
im interested to see if this is worth gettng

[i have both and would like to know/ not starting a fanboy argument]

Same thing happened to me :D I'd ran into the north gate of the castle when one of my generals decides to yell "Lu Bu's there, lets find another way around!" then literally 2 seconds later he runs into me from behind and kills me in 2 hits.

Anyone else found that when theres loads of people on screen you loose track of your character? Maybe I was just tired but I found last night my character doens't stand out enough like they used to and just blends in with the regular troops to easily.
 
Dynasty Warriors are such bad games.

Nah!! they're great.. I remember getting DW4 it was amazing.. think it was the first to introduce co-op into the series :D

Me and mate had great fun playing this.. thne they released all the others like legends and all the sequals.. just felt the same actually they are all the same :| the least they could have done in new one is add xbl or something
