For all of you who enjoy the Dynasty Warrior games, which on the PS2 did you think was best? 

I don't really have a favorite but the one that I remember the most was Dynasty Warriors 3 because it was one of the first PS2 games I ever played.

The one where it's not Dynasty Warriors.

Shut up.
 
I'm partial to Dynasty Warriors 4 on the PS2.  DW5 had its ups, but it felt like they were finally hitting the wall as far as development on the PS2 was concerned.  DW4 had a great selection of characters and stages, and it's still the entry in which I played quite possibly the most hectic Dynasty Warriors battle I may ever fight.  The Liu Bei Nanman Campaign battle had me on the edge of my seat the whole time, especially since the entire damn minimap was red with enemy troops.  Holy crap, that was a crazy one. "

I've only ever player Dynasty Warriors 3, it was surprisingly fun considering the repetitiveness.

I'm a fan of 4 as well, although I didn't play any prior to that. DW: Gundam is also a ton of fun too.

• Poor graphics?:  Eh, they're not going to win any technical graphics awards, but I think the games look fine.
• Empty arenas?:  I'm not sure what you mean by empty in this context.  There's generally lots of dudes that need a sound beating.
• Repetitive action?:  So what's wrong with that?  Some people enjoy a good, simple brawler.  I'm not playing these games looking for Ninja Gaiden.
• Barely any voice work?:  What.  There's plenty of voice work in those games.

• Poor graphics?: Yes, pretty damn poor. Even the ones from this generation look terrible let alone the older ones.
  
• Empty arenas?:  Dudes, yes, and not much else. No effective scenery aside from a castle or river or whatever.
  
• Repetitive action?:  Sure, you can enjoy that, more power to you. I'm pretty sure I've enjoyed a repetitive game or two. Just not this one, simply because it doesn't have anything that makes me feel like the repetition is worth it.
  
• Barely any voice work?: Yes, barely. Very text heavy game.

there all bad but  if i had to chose 1 it would have to be 3

 By all means, enjoy the game, as you do. But It's not really a game I'll understand the love for. Maybe you should explain what makes it a good game, and why it has deserved the numerous sequels it has gotten because I truly see no reason. "

3 or 4, but Im more fond of 3.
 
What?
 
Everybody has a guilty pleasure.

I can't even tell them apart.

The dynasty warriors series aren't for everyone for one you need to love the characters and know where they come from (romance of the three kingdoms novel). I myself wasn't a big fan since the first game of the series I played was the sixth which know that I think about it it's not too bad. But when I was younger all I looked for in a game was graphics and good visuals ( yes ,that's it). I recently bought the 8th game and played for countless of hours. The game makes me crave for more of the three kingdoms. Heck it even made me want to read the book, and I'm NOT a book person. I have since started playing the series down and found out I actually enjoy these simple but unforgettable games. Don't judge the game by its graphics but by its story.
