PSP Critic Reviews

DW2 has just enough improvements to make it smoother and slightly more enjoyable than its predecessor.

Once players become proficient at darting from one cluster of soldiers to the next sending enemies spinning into the air with stylish attacks, this game is likely to become a fun way to pass time during commercials, like it did with me.

Another solid instalment in a brilliant series of games, and with the single-player campaign's branching structure providing about a million campaigns and battles, there's certainly enough to keep you going till Vol 3.

Really just more of the same. While it isn’t totally lame, it does have a number of flaws that make it inferior to other hack and slash titles; in short, it’s a whole lot of action you’ve already seen.

As long as you're looking to kill thousands of bad guys, you'll find something to like in Dynasty Warriors Vol. 2.

A half-baked multiplayer mode and the same ‘ol gameplay mean that the Dynasty Warriors series is showing its seams.

From a company that has been making the same game for some many years, you start to expect them to put something together more impressive than this.

Dynasty Warriors Vol. 2 might as well be Dynasty Warriors Vol. 1.5, with its few minor upgrades, less-than-enjoyable multiplayer mode, and done-to-death hack-and-slash gameplay.

Behind the sharper graphics and the bigger kit of options, though, there's still an unfortunately shallow, repetitive game.

It's got its love/hate bits like every other entry in the franchise, but the bite-sized level maps, bulk of content, and portability of this version make it a decent purchase choice.
