Hey, i finally got KessenIII "YEAGH!!!" and am now gonna fight shibata katsuie (after this battle im gonna sleep thoug hcause tomorrow im going swimming with a friend)
anyway, i was just wondering, if i finish the game will i keep my levels and items? would be nice tbh, ill check back here tomorrow.

I believe once you beat the game, you keep all your items on the same save, but if you start a new game, your generals will be back to LVL. 1.
Have fun playing Kessen III!

well at least knowing that something of my effort is saved is good enough.
I remember kessen II was more of a oldschool style game as in when you finished it and started a new one you had to do everything over again or take other paths (i loved ending up with siege tools i didnt have on other playtroughs, or army units for the same, also i always loved Cai wengi for some reason, mustve been her rebelous nature or something, she always looked badass to me. I remember doing a playtrough on the hardest difficulty on Liubei side and doing all stages 100% perfect lol (that means not losing a single unit and as fast as possible, and believe me that is damn hard on the boat stages definatly chi bi but i did it ^^ my biggest Kessen achievement) just cause i wondered if that maybe unlocked Sunquan side but that wasnt possible sadly :P )

Now KessenIII does look graphically old but thats only cause im used to PS3 now but for gameplay sake its a great game already, i dont mind the empty backgrounds at all, all the customising is definatly a plus and the characters are all original again just like in KessenII, finally no more clone looking officers ^^ makes me appreciate retainers alot more, also read more in the information section about them, its fun even though it feels like school sometiems (wich is like 10 years ago lol, not that i ever had japanese history) I dont mind that all officers are level 1 again, but i always hate losing collections in games so this is perfect.

Moar review>

SOUND>
The japanese voiceoption is FANTASTIC, when the intro began i was like "oh no not this..." with all the cheesy english comments done by japanese people.
But in the options i found japanese option so i was very happy, now i can learn more japanese again and i remembered a word btw Hajimé wich is begin. (well my karate teacher always said that too lol)

MUSIC> not my favorite music cause i had it on my mp3 player a while before i ever had this game so i know all the music allready, its strange to hear it in battles while i used to listen to them to relax lol ohwell.

GAME> Seeing your whole division attack is cool especially when they shout out in japanese while they do it, seeing horses jump into the enemie is really cool aswell lol.
I mostly get A ranks and thats good enough for me, i also have a Tokugawa ieyasu helm now but it looks silly on all my officers, i also have Maeda keiji and inahime (yea i know hime means princess! good huh :> <--proud faece. ) they look extra silly with it on their head ;D

MOVIE/STORY> till now i really like it, i was a bit confused over the opening movie it looked more like a ending (honnoji) nobunaga was great though and then fooom! Oda nobunaga being young, man he looks good without a beard/moustache.
I hope Koei will make him young also in SW3.
I am learning to apreciate Oda nobunaga kun (yes, his young version so why i use kun, also learning that) now. I SHOULD CHANGE INTO A JAPANESE PERSON... god i wish i lived in japan with so much nice games (and the tokyo gameshow ;< )
Im being drawn into the story anyway and 'it feels good man'
