Kessen II

THE BAD:
Amount of time wasted on playin...

SUMMARY:
This game is fun if you get it. I don't like the fact that in this game battles are based on morale and not on hp or anything. In order to win you have to get the enemy's morale to 0 and it gets really annoying when you don't have any war or magic abilities to use.

THE BAD:
Repetitive, hard and childish.

SUMMARY:
This is a game you don't want! Stale, boring and a barrel of pure rubbish. They don't bother to make a great stratergy game like Age of the Empires or even Civilisation instead they make a great load of rubbish!

If you stripped the game of the childish features, the annoying charecters and the fact that you can't kill generals; you would have the makings of a great game. Instead the company give you an annoying game, where the charecters and weapons are made for 3 year olds and the difficulty for 20 year olds... It isn't natural! They tried to make it fit 2 different areas of the gaming world and all it's done is ride the success train with Dynasty Warriors. It takes a perfectly good Dynasty Warriors game and fiddles the controls, adds annoying characters, makes Meng Huo look like an idiot, makes the characters have stupid hair styles, faces etc. and makes them say the word "DARN" all the bloody time! So I'm still in shock that Koei could stoop so low that they've practally got their head in the dirt. Although I don't dispute that Koei makes great games I still haven't figured out Why They Made This Game!

THE BAD:
Somewhat "childish" short movies, includes magic and completely stupid special weapons, such as "Hawk Troops" and "Tiger Cannons." Makes the game actually horrible.

SUMMARY:
This game is a good buy, but some find it utterly stupid. The annoying special weapons as well as Zhuge Liang's wife is almost unbarable, and the first time I heard it all I could say was "what the hell is this?" The gameplay is incredible, and the war scenes are shocking and actually very accurate. Some of the battles include actual geography and very real appearances. A few other things that may "irk" you are that warlords "hover" over the ground when moving and fighting, and you can only select one unit at a time. To get your units to go, you have to select a screen and watch them go to it, or else they won't move and the game will go on pause.

It's a good game, but it's too childish for me. I give it a 2/5.

Overall = 2/5
Grade: F

THE BAD:
Gets Really Repetitive After A while if u get stuck.Doesn't Last Along Time.

SUMMARY:
Special Attacks On The Game Are Just Breathtaking As are the fighting sceenes.The Land Over They Fight Isn't Very Detailed But I suppose You Can't Have Everything!The SoundTrack Is Just Catchy as my friend and i were singing along to it alot<img src="/smile.gif" border=0 vspace=2>.As Far as i know u can fight on ships on sea or on foot or with horses on land.Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah .All in all this is one of the best strategy games on PS2.

THE BAD:
There are lags during battles and you can't improve them individually,There are only 12 levels and they last about 8 minutes a peice on average...

SUMMARY:
It's hard to kill people but it's fairly easy in siege attacks i don't know why it just is you should go out and buy this game now it's only $30.00 now

THE BAD:
The short amount of levels, not being able to kill people very easily without useing magic.

SUMMARY:
This is truely a great game. They could of made the stratigic part better but it was fine to me. The graphics were awesome too. Some people say its bad how Koei made up people and changed some males to females but who cares! It dosn't have to be exactly on the dot of history as long as its fun. The one part that bugs me the most was the fact that its hard to kill people without useing magic. I dont know how Koei could fix that but it really ticks me off. Besides that this game is truely one of the best. Its a shame not very many people notice that. If I were you id go and buy this game right now.

THE BAD:
Should have an option to be a general and fight.

SUMMARY:
They kinda added a taste of Dynasty Warriors in the game but they should have made it more like Dynasty Warriors, with the ability to fight and improve the general. Kessen has a great way of you being able to control an army but they should have added an option to control and train an individual. This is a pretty good game but it could be way better.

THE BAD:
Boring, You dont have many options, you only control one person at a time, slow, too many short movies, They talk too much.

SUMMARY:
It is not worth renting or buying.
As I sayed before, the game developers had a good idea, but did not succeded....
waste!!
