Xtreme Legends is just more of the same, on top of an already repetitive and mostly overused concept.

Assuming you have dipped your feet in the pool of endless Dynasty Warriors content, it's almost absurd at this point to have to pay 30 bucks for either the PS2 or Xbox 360 flavor of what is barely more than preconceived, half-assed, tacked-on downloadable content.

In fact, for casual Warriors players, it may even be better to have not played the first game, as the main game probably will make you less likely to want to play the new, but not all that different, content.

Play this game. The reasons for good reviews are not the same as why people play games. The diverse player options will keep you interested. Buy, don't rent!

If you've already got Samurai Warriors 2, then I can't really see this slightly remixed version being worth the GBP 20 (EUR 25) asking price.

With such monotonous gameplay, the excellent RPG elements used to pimp out characters proves to be useless.

The gaming equivalent of rocking in a corner sucking your thumb - comforting at first, but repetitive and the behaviour of those who are soft in the head. [June 2008, p.85]
