Koei serves up another plate of button-mashing goodness.

Dynasty Warriors. The king of button-mashing video games. Koei's fifth installment adds more characters and features to the old formula.
The Good
*Solid gameplay
*Good graphics
*A variety of officers
*Cool musou modes, although they don't follow history too well

The Bad
*Fog of war can be frustrating
*No player vs player, only co-op

The Just Plain Ugly
*Poor camera controls
*To conserve space, enemies sometimes turn invisible when not in combat and can sometimes materialize in front of you
