What to say about Dynasty Warriors 5, if you are a diehard fan of the game (like me) you'll love it, there are new characters , new attacks, new items and new levels. Also instead of eight bodyguard you now have one bodyguard that actually helps you. One thing about the items I really like is that bow attack and defense are now one item instead of two, just like horse attack and defense.
The game isn't that bad actually, it's better than dynasty warriors 4 and 4: Empires, there is just one thing that they did and that I don't understand, they removed the versus mode!!! And for me personaly makes the game boring, when your playing with a group of friends or family, you not playing Musou mode or free mode, cause it takes to long to finish, that's right, you play versus to see who's best, the worst thing Koei could do is remove versus, without that the game really misses something. And it makes no sense, dynasty warriors 3 and 4 had versus why 5 not? DW5: Xtreme legends doesn't have it either!!! Well if you're a diehard fan you'll love it if not I suggest you spend your money at another game
