Abstract: First off, if you have played and enjoyed the cathartic combat across expansive battlefields in a Dynasty Warriors game, and you're a fan of the Zelda series, you're good to go. Buy Hyrule Warriors – you really shouldn't be disappointed. If you haven't pl...
Abstract: Hyrule Warriors is the game everyone has been talking about, because seriously, how does it even exist? As successful as Musou games can be, they've never really hit that sort of mainstream presence outside of the occasional curiosity or over-exaggerated ...
Abstract: Admittedly, the Dynasty Warriors series has never garnered quite as much love and attention as The Legend of Zelda games, and with good reason. Based on the ancient Chinese novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Warriors is almost fam ed for its choppy fram...
