It looks cool and I'll probably give a shot one day, but the reason why I liked Dynasty Warriors was that it was based on a piece of history that I became obsessed with. It inspired me to read Romance of the Three Kingdoms, study ancient Chinese history and watch hundred of hours of movies and tv shows covering this time period. I had once created my own Three Kingdoms portfolio of notes on characters and battles...it really sparked my interest for a long long time. The games were fun too, although I pretty much lost interest around DW 5 I am meaning to pick up DW8 one of these days. I'm sure hack and slash gamer fans will love Link running around tearing up a battlefield, but I'm not in a hurry to get it the day it comes out.
