Creative Assembly has had a good run, with good games released on the PC (Shogun: Total War, Medieval: Total War, and Rome: Total War). All of those game are very good PC games. The expansion pack/s to each of those games are really good. When I heard that they would come out with a console game I knew that I had to get it. Unlike, the PC games this game is more like Dynasty Warriors 4 or 5, however it is a lot better. The main reason it is better is because of the better gameplay that it offers and the storyline is more entertaining. But, lets start with the sound effects. The sound effects are great and just really help the gamer get into the game. They really go well with the game, there is really nothing bad you can say about this game's sound effects. The graphics are also excellent, however they are a few glitches here and there. What I mean by that is when a soldier dies he falls and goes through a gate or wall. Besides, that their is nothing wrong with the graphics. The only other things I have to say about the graphics is that they are not as detailed as they should be, they could of made the graphics a bit better. The storyline for this game is very entertaining, I like how Creative Assembly all ways has accurate storylines; well in this game it is a bit mythical but still accurate. The gameplay is good and way better then Dynasty Warriors 4 or 5 gameplay. In Dynasty Warriors Series you fight the same enemies over and over again (besides the bosses), which is boring. But in this game it offerers different type of units every mission. That helps the gameplay not be repetitive. This is a very entertaining game and I enjoyed playing it a lot. I highly recommend this game to all gamers with a Xbox. If you thought Dynasty Warriors 3 or 4 or even 5 was a good game, wait till you play this game.
