Are you warriors ready for Dynasty Warriors 4?

and its one of the only decent co-op games out there

Bah.I think its a total rip-off.

...of?

Agree\'d. What is it a rip -off of? No other game has had the same amount of enemies and what not. Infact, no other game has game close.

With that said - I still don\'t care for the series.

Then why the **** did you post in here LIC. We take it that those who dont post in this thread must not be a fan of the series.

I mean honestly, Sure Ive done something similar a few times, But it really is stupid.

On topic: I have found a fairly good website with character bios: and all the new characters
http://www.poyzn.net/dw3/dw4.html
new characters: i believe their must be more:
Yue Ying : Female : Shu
http://www.poyzn.net/dw3/images/dw4/yue_ying.jpg
Zhou Tai : Male : Wu
http://www.poyzn.net/dw3/images/dw4/zhou_tai.jpg
Cao Ren : Male :Wei
http://www.poyzn.net/dw3/wei/cao_ren.html

Looking good; All the characters have very new costumes. My personal favorite character :  Gan Ning : http://www.poyzn.net/dw3/images/dw4/gan_ning.jpeg

Look around lots of pictures.

Yeah yeah.The old coin-op style of games I used to play years ago only now its basically the old idea camouflaged in 3D and with added enemies on screen at the same time.

I posted because I wanted to, is there a problem Spudz? Okay, then.

And Unicorn! , if you want to look at it from that viewpoint, you may as well quit playing games. There are no truly original games. Everything is the same premise as classic games, \'cept brought to 3D. Yes, even those games you so often praise.  

My point? It is quite hyprotical to to condem Dynasty Warriors for taking the beat\'em up genre for 3D, when every other game is doin\' the same and have been since the 3D genre started.

I\'m sure Spudz has no problem LIC. But when you repeatedly take your time out to run down most games on the market you come off like a, a, a hmmm... snoby prick maybe?

By no means assume that I mean you have to like every videogame you come across but in the same sense you don\'t have to run (which in your case it seems to be 99.9%) down all the games you come across.

But like you said, you wanted to post which you have the right to do so. So Spudz the best you can do is just ignore it =|

I wouldnt consider DW even an evolution.Usually the other games take the genre and add new ideas or improve a previous gameplay aspect which lacked due to technology limitations.What I see in DW is almost the same game I used to play just in 3D.
Should I pick DMC as an example?Its not the typical button mashing action game.
FF?KH?Vagrant Story?Today\'s RPG\'s have so much variety in gameplay that even if they dont deliver anything remerkably new u just dont pay much attention.Usually its the story that make u buy these games
GT3?I dont remember any 2D simulation games.Besides.GT3 is the game for Car lovers.Not just for gamers.
Burnout2?What previous game can be compared to it?Since the 32-bit days nothing.Any 2D game?Outrun?Still cant.It was always a straight highway just bending slightly to the left or to the right.
Rachet and Clank?HUGE worlds, and a variety of weapons and gadgets.
MGS2?Improved AI.Interactivity to the max,and the 3D cameras turned the game into something that could be truely called tactical espionage stealth game.Its like playing in a movie.
Bored to talk about other games.Its 1 o\'clock in the morning right now in Cyprus and  I feel sleepy

For some genres the shift from 2D to 3D made the experiences more exciting as it added gameplay ideas previously not possible.
 
But how has DW improved the genre\'s experience?They just threw a ton of characters on screen, a couple of buttons more, and added some character customization which I didnt find interesting enough.Its a button mashing game.

You mistake me for someone who cares if I come off as a "snoby prick". Make no mistake, I don\'t care for most games that come out on the market. I however, won\'t withold my opinion.

Fair enough, Unicorn, but at the same time. You can\'t say DW didn\'t make the beat\'em\' up more interesting or exciting. Large enviorments? Ditto! Massive amount of enemies on screen? Ditto! Decent story? Ditto! Massive amount of playable characters? Ditto! All these make the game a more "exciting" version of the classic beat\'em\'up\'s we are use to .

Trust me I made no mistake. I care about one thing really, that thing is Central use to be the best PS2 fan site on the net, it was full of great topics, many posts and great people. However over time its degrated to what it is now, a 2nd rate PS2 board. People like you don\'t help the situation, your quite a lame f\'ucker and even more so your annoying, simple as that =)

Your posts are predictable and repetitive with your nagativity BS, its a shame Bjorn never did put an ignore button into the forum because your banter is not what the site needs if it ever wants to be something it once was. Although I could be wrong by now, I haven\'t had a PC for close to 8 months and only visited the site rarely during that time.

If there is one, please indulge me and tell me.

Thanks for the link spudz... It makes me crave the game... I\'m in a no-game zone right now (except for some freelancer)...

As for improving etc....

GT3 = GT or GT2 with better graphics... more cars maybe... no radical changes though.  Yes, based on outrun, which was the way it was because of limitations on the hardware of the time.

MGS2 = same game, some new abilities, items, but mostly updated graphics.

FF?  FFX was just FF VII-IX without the pre-rendering.  FF VII-X are FF I-VI in 3D.

Ratchet and Clank?  Sonic the Hedgehog 10x bigger (less limitations of hardware), which was supermario but better in the first place.

Don\'t get me wrong, all four of those games have been played and enjoyed by me, but you have to see that every game is based of another game these days...  even radical concepts have been done at some point with lesser graphics.  I think you don\'t consider what they\'ve done for DW4 \'innovative\' because you don\'t like the game...  bigger maps, more enemies, items, players, customizations is exactly the kind of innovation I want in a sequel to a game I already love...  Sometimes over changing hurts sequels (after FFVII, I hated the magic system for VIII).

First off, it is people like me who has been here for years now and actually care what this board is. And that is a place for people to discuss games , with their own opinion. I don\'t bash anyone\'s opinion, everyone is goin\' to like different games. But I also expect to use the same right, that I so often mention .

Repetive and overly negative? First off, I don\'t even post that often in the Main Forum. And if it\'s negative, its because my opinion of the game is negative. But, I do post postive ones also, when I think it is deserved. Example? Zone of the Enders 2. I have praised that game. You don\'t see that though, because you got your head up your a$$ and are makin\' crazy judgements.

Yes, there is a ignore option. Use it, if you think I am annoying. It makes no difference to me.



As for Fatal, right on man..Right on.

Thank you for notifying me about the ignore button, it was all I really cared to gain from your response =D
F.Y.I. just because you\'ve been here longer than most doesn\'t garnish you any special attention as to what this board means to you.

[Living-In-Clip]

What does garner "special attenion" is the fact that people like me, have actually tried to make a change in the board and improve it. Who helpd started up Console Discussion? Ginko, Ryu, Ashford, Sonyfan and I. We all cared about the importance of various opinions and discussion of the industry.
