Latest Update: April 1st 2006
In this update...
No content this update, since I've been busy with an entirely unrelated project.
Dynasty Warriors 5 Empires is out in North America. I have not played it long enough to give a well-informed opinion, but my first impression is "GOD YES, I CAN FINALLY GIVE ORDERS TO ALLIES DURING BATTLE." Tentative thumbs up. Sadly, no Japanese voice acting. European players, you'll be getting your hands on this sometime this summer.
Speaking of voice acting, Zhang Fei's American voice, Bob Papenbrook, passed away last month. Damned shame. Great performer, always liked his portrayal of Zhang Fei. (Credit to Undertaker for the heads-up.)
In other release news, PSP owners have Shin Sangoku Musou 2nd Evolution to look forward to, read more about it here and here. No word on a release date yet. (Credit to Jeanine for the linkage.) Don't forget about Dynasty Warriors 4 Hyper for the PC, which is now available in the States. And, most exiciting, Shin Sangoku Musou BB (Dynasty Warriors online) is finally taking shape. So far it's only in beta, and only in Japanese. There is absolutely no word on whether this game will be made available outside of Japan.
