Dynasty Warriors 5: Xtreme Legends (PlayStation 2, 2005)

What's new in this series is that you can insert a Dw5 disc to play on Musou mode. Some new game modes include Challenge Mode, Xtreme Mode, and Destiny Mode. Xtreme mode is pretty fun, you control a character and survive as long as possible while collecting gold dropped by enemies to regain health and increase stats temporarily. For Destiny mode, you get to create your own personal character. You pick a class to join ( Wei,Shu or Wu ). It's like playing as a troop but your getting your character higher and higher rank. Excellent game, 5 out of 5 stars.

I bought this game because of having the rest of the set and it was a very great series. The things I would say I loved or liked about it is 1) You get to fight countless enemies at once.2) You get to upgrade your weapon by finding the upgrades to it in weapon boxs.3) You have countless difficulties ranging from novice to chaos. 4)You can get your 4th weapon on hard but if you train your person completly it is not very hard. The only thing I do not like about it is that sometimes you get overwhelmed by generals and you'll be dead before you can get away.Also some of the levels have no type of objective to them just defend and thats hard enough.There are some bugs and it screws up everything you worked for but it can be to your advantage or to your disadvantage.

I am a big fan of Dynasty Warriors and I have all the Dynasty warrior series collected. I bought it because it was new and afforable price.

I expect the game to be what Koei does best. Fighting styles are similar to previous dynasty games 3, 4 and 5 Empires that I used to have. The only disappointment I have with this game is that the Destiny mode is kinda short and I manage to go up to Lt. General rank. In Extreme mode, I would lose the data completely if I did not complete the mission. I wish that it has some saving mode to let me try again. But overall, it is a good game.

excellent product, we received it in a timely manor and the product was in great condition. thank you

This game is about something that happened in history. It's not make believe or something that some idiot came up with. This is about real life heroes, and the battles they had. It's an awesome game!!

A game based off of the dynasty warriors series with new features and modes such as destiny mode, xtreme mode and make your own charecter mode. this game has the same 50 charecters as the recent dw games that have different fighting styles to make this game worth playing.
4.3/5

Great Game for Dynasty Warriors fanatics.
Love to kill armys of enemies, and earn new stuff.
Highly recommend!

ive played all of the dynasty warrior games and this is the best xtreme ledgends and one of the best out of all of them but i like dynasty warriors 5: EMPIRES

Dynasty mode is great but gets almost impossible to beat at a certain stage. It would be nice to have a way to set the level to easy.

Seller didn;t email me and ask when I was going to pay, he just started a case against me with ebay even though it was less than 2 weeks late on the payment .

The shipping and recieving was good, communication was bad.

Good product though.

Its a really good game- great grapihcs and the geamplay is really good for a ps2 game. Def. recommend it to people who like action games with a little adventure mixed in

The new modes in this game are a great addition to the series! It's always nice to get modes where you get to know your characters.

I think that is a great game and capture the soul of the ancient culture of this great country, China.

very fast shipping friendly emails will buy from again game got here so fast thought it was airmail
highly recommend this seller

I bought the game for my grandson-age 11- he is very much into this type
of entertainment. Thank you for the prompt service and the speedy effort you
extended in getting this into the USMail flow. The item was delivered too his
home in Upstate New York on the 25th of June. Thanks again.

This game isn't what I expected, maybe I played DW3 to many times but I think the graphics and just the whole game play just isn't as fun as the older games. Hopefully DW6 will be alot better, it just isn't fun and is pretty boring, they tried really hard to make it look good but it doesn't look good at all the enviroment looks a little better then the older games but the way the people move and behave is just really stupid.

I know it is a video game for the Ps2 but I would still like the characters to move somewhat like a person would and maybe they could have had the people look like guys instead of having them all look like chicks. I don't know maybe someone out there would like this game but I personally didn't, I should have known something when the game was sold so cheap and no body else bidded on it. I wish I bought it in the stores at least then I could have returned it for my money back. I unless you are a true hard core fan who doesn't care go ahead and buy it but I would say not to waste your money sorry.

DW5XL, or Dynasty Warriors 5 - Xtreme Legends, is basically the same game as DW4XL, with minor upgrades to several characters. The game is fun to play like most Dynasty Warriors games made by Koei, but, like any of the games in the DW5 series, it lacks creativity and could tire fairly quickly.

The xtreme mode, which was first seen in DW4XL, is kept. For those who haven't played this mode before, the xtreme mode allows you to choose one of the 48 playable characters, and play in as many battle scenes as you possibly can before you die, without the luxury of the character automatically restoring his/her health at the conclusion of each battle (you can "buy" health from the merchant after each round, but the meat buns become increasingly expensive and beyond affordable in later rounds). It is always a challenge to see how far you can go, and with each character... but who are we kidding here? Lu Bu will probably take you through a few more rounds (or many more rounds) than Zhang Jiao (pardon me here, yellow turban fans).

Dynasty Mode allows you to create your own character and follow one of the 48 characters as their side-kick. You can be loyal to your general throughout, or you can choose to betray him/her for your own gain. As you progress through the stages, you gain experience and can purchase abilities. What I really don't like about the Dynasty Mode is that it is way too short - 7 rounds and you are done. The strategies you can put into this mode is also very limited - it is not even a "chess match" like Xtreme Mode where you must calculate whether you should spend that 10000GP to buy one meat bun.

It is important to point out that the saved data from DW5 can be loaded up to DW5XL, so you need not try to unlock Zhang Jiao or Zuo Ci again. Your created characters from Dynasty Mode can also be transferred to DW5 Empires, which actually is VERY helpful when you play Empire Mode in DW5 Empires.
