I am not a big fan of some of the games that are being released on multiple consoles right now, as it usually means the Xbox 360 is getting the short end of the stick, and Gamepro might agree with me on that, as they review Dynasty Warriors 5: Empires.
With the game appearing on both the Xbox 360 and PS2, you’d think that the next-gen visuals would blow away the current-gen version. Well, this actually only ends up being partially correct. While the Xbox 360 version does look pretty nice, with improved character models and particle effects for Musou attacks, the game still suffers from a heavy case of generic environments and repetitive enemy models. Enemies still look virtually the same, and levels are made up of cookie-cutter segments that lack any real visual punch.
