I'm gonna go with Empires.

Xtreme Legends for Samurai Warriors has always delivered compared to Dynasty, but it really is content that does not deserve another disc. New challange modes? I'm really excited to buy a new disc for those. New stages? So excited. New weapons and Xtreme Mode? So excited! New items and the chance to make a "new" warrior? So excited!

Well, don't get me wrong, I like what the XL's bring to the table (Minus the CAW but that's another issue) but they're not exactly deserving of 30 more bucks. I've kept up with all of them since DW3 but just because it's a necessary evil. I want the full game, to do so I must have XL... The new characters in Samurai's XL's are good and welcome to have. DW3XL's Very Hard mode entertains me to this day. DW5XL's change to heavy weapons was good and some of its new items really helped out. Samurai Warriors 1's XL made it so much more playable by removing the limits. But really, needing to disc swap every time to have the full game, regardless of how easy it is to do, is just foolish. There's such a thing as packing it all on one disc, loading just the one disc...

Empires is easily its own gamestyle, what with making your own army filled with any officers you want, conquering all of the country and basically playing a faster and more action-filled version of ROTK/NA. You can do almost whatever the hell you want in it, and for that I'll gladly buy it. And for the times where playing all the preset scenarios and stages doesn't cut it because maybe on that day I feel I've played Chi Bi or Sekigahara enough times, Empires' variety is there to help me out.
