I simply don't understand how this got the green light in its current condition and I am gravely concerned that something like this is going to be sold to people. Maybe it's fine on the PS2, but the Xbox 360 version is poison for your disc tray.

Warriors Orochi is exactly what its mentally ill fans anticipated – more of the same. This is appropriate fare for them, but technically incompetent and repetitive for everyone else.
60
So in essence, the game saves itself a touch in multiplayer but if you’re already a massive fan of all things Dynasty Warriors / Orochi, or if you’re a recent platform convert from the Playstation 2 you might well find plenty here to entertain you.

It's great. It's the best game I've ever seen. The picture is exquisite, the movement is smooth, and the design is exquisite.

Slightly worse than its predecessor, but still better than DW6. If compared to games outside of this genre, it would get a 5.5/10, in its genre, I give it an 8, while the original got a 9, and Bladestorm got a 9.5. If that doesn't put it into prospective, try this: If you liked Orochi 1, get this used, but not new.

Warriors Orochi 2 is a divisive game and one that many will over-look due to the largely negative reviews circulating for it.

That being said though, judging the game on its own grounds, Koei have never failed to populate the series with its many options and the tradition continues here, this is something definitely shedding fifteen or so pound for the Playstation 2, but to pay an extra ten or so on top for the Xbox 360 is hardly justifiable.

Warriors Orochi 2 isn't short on content, but it's unlikely that many will want to persevere past the staggeringly poor frame rate and distinctly old-gen graphical flaws.

I tend to review KOEI titles higher than some other reviewers as I have no interest in panning a game that people have put some effort into; on the surface this is not one of those games.

Warriors Orochi 2 elevates hack-and-slash action to amazing levels of repetitive boredom.
30
The problem is that multiplayer is not enough to save this pointless and empty attempt at creating a new game.
