Dynasty Warriors to make 360 debut

Next month, Koei's popular Dynasty Warriors series will make its Xbox 360 debut with Dynasty Warriors 5 Empires (also available on PS2). Koei sales manager Will Curley is promising the 360 version will be the "most visually astounding" DW yet.

The new Empires will include a two-player co-op mode, four unlockable scenarios, and an encyclopedia of ancient China--for those who want a more educational experience.

It disgusts me.
Not that Dynasty warriors is a bad game or anything, but it is for the PS2!
Past gen games do not belong on next gen hardware!
Why should we pay �45 for a game that costs �30 on another format.

This is due out in about a month, March 28th to be exact. The summer release is only for Europe (where the article orginates).

I'm waiting to see if they actually make this game a 360 game, or if it's just an emulation of the PS2 version like the other DW games on the Xbox.

Does "most visually astounding DW yet" mean the graphics will be upgraded to "passable?"

More importantly, will we see the return of the Most Unfortunately Named Hero, Cao Pi?

I got tired of this game after the second one

I wonder why Companies think of these ideas ?.Didn't Dynasty Warriors sell very poorly on the Original Xbox.

This site continues with is blatant biaseness. Instead of posting one of the actual nice looking screens by the title they post some ugly sketch so that people will say "if thats the best 360 can do i dont want it".

That isn't a sketch .That's actually in game shot of the last Dynasty Worriors game.This site links to stories so the screens are nothing to do with this site.Also i can't see any post here saying wow that game looks crap.The whole series looks pretty bad on any platform.
