Is Dynasty Wars any good?
« on: May 06, 2011, 04:20:46 AM »
I loved the spectrum version of Dynasty Warriors, but from the screenshots on pcengine.co.uk, the sprites are  pretty small.  How does it play?  and how much does it usually go for?

It plays well, IMO.  The only things that disappoint is there is no redbook audio during gameplay(just chiptunes) and the super moves were cut out.  Still a good game, though.  I payed $70 for my copy.

yeah the difference is quite marked from the Arcade version.  I might just put mame on something.

the backgrounds are astonish and nearly 1:1 cps. sure the sprites are smaller which is kinda bummer. but it's still a cool converison, and for sure the best by far from 8/16bit times.
