definetly Orochi. Shin Orochi only has 4 singular charge attacks :/ and only has one costume as well and no wallpapers. The only thing he has over Orochi is a better appearance and a much better R1 attack. Seeing as he is supposed to be the most powerful character in the game, i thought KOEI would have at least given him a full moveset. And the fact that he doesn't have any extra costumes or wallpapers is kinda dissapointing considering how long it took to unlock him
I haven't even gotten Shin Orochi X yet, it took me a long time just to get the six leaders up to 50 profiency and complete all dream stages ON EVERY difficulty. I just gave up, I love playing WO2 but don't feel like dedicating excessive amounts of time to unlock the last dream stage and have to play it four times over just to get Shin Orochi X.

Is he really worth it? I think I'd be too tired of the game by the time I acquired him to even have fun using him. As far as playing against both Orochis, Shin X is definately much tougher than the original. The first time I played against Shin X was with Zhang Fei, he used his lazer attack and instantly killed me. I had a WTF anger filled moment, after that though I always managed him well. I never got beaten by the original Orochi in WO1 except on Chaos difficulty and in stages where enemies like to gang up on you (Bai Di anyone?).

Overall I thought Orochi was great in WO1 but was really impressed how he turned out as Shin X in WO2. Definately looks cooler and could more easily scare small children.

Shin X gets my vote.

shin orochi, only for appearance

but i don like the both of them, especialy their S-string movesets where they proceed infront whenever they attack and they kill officers super slow, try it with allmighty and u can test it out, their jump charge is usefull for clearing crowds nut they are slow at killing officers

It's a sort of new Orochi version, (in English version his name's Orochi X) it's the hardest character to unlock in WO2 : we've to unlock & finish all the Dream Stages to unlock him - if I remember well the guide XD Coorect me if I'm wrong, thanks! -

Shin Orochi, it mean "True Orochi" in Japanese so he should be a best version of the character Orochi lol :P He's his ressurection.

I think he has the same weapon but I'm not 100% sure because I haven't unlocked him yet :s

Here in KW site you can see how Shin Orochi look (click on Shin Orochi's links to see his picture) >> http://koeiwarriors.co.uk/moms-databookscans.php

Well Orochi colours became more black & he has white hair when he's Shin Orochi lol :P

Orochi and Orochi X share the same weapons but the movesets are slightly different from each other.

At first i liked Orochi when i had his 3rd Outfit unlocked but once i faced and played as Orochi X i easily preffered him over Orochi because he knows without your Musou you're defenceless :sly:

That's a big dissapointment, yea I know who he is now. I thought Shin Orochi was just Orochi in a different costume Considering how hard it is to unlock him you think that he wouldn't be like another character.

Never really saw the point of going to all that effort when you have a perfectly good Orochi already -_-

Anyone have a link to some gameplay of Orochi X?
I'd like to see what the hassle's about please

Although Shin Orochi has better stats and his charge attacks seem to hit harder, I have to stick with Orochi's first version - the moveset just seems to flow better, and I love how his either C3 or C4 will spin him around and tends to bring me right behind those annoying blocking generals, while simultaneously slicing down all the peons in the way. Tough choice though, as I think both looks are appropriate (though I think they could've gone bigger with the aura on Shin Orochi).

Heh, the Original Orochi is powerful enough, his C1 is a one hit KO wide area move.

I dunno what the upgraded Orochi is gonna be like. But I'm gonna find out soon, this game will be mine very soon...

that pwnzor charge attack by Shin which absorbs the enemy's musou and that c3 is enough to convince me that Shin has the advantage

oh..and his weapon does a higher damage than the original oro..

To me, regular Orochi is better.

Yes, Shin Orochi[X] has a somewhat more powerful moveset and can deplete your musou gage, but I tend to find the original always better.

In WO1 when doing Koshi Castle for the first time, Orochi was incredibly hard to beat. Then in WO2 I was doing Chi Bi to complete Wu's story and defeated this new Orochi like he was nothing.

I also feel that unlocking Shin Orochi is almost useless. You don't get anything out of it, except the customizable backgrounds. It would be great if you unlock him and then CAW mode becomes available, or and extra special bonus character nobody knew about has become playable.

I also liked the way regular Orochi looked better. He looked so awesome and undead. His reborn form was so ugly to me.

But, it seems that people prefer his new form more. I choose to be different.

I voted for Orochi becouse he have better moveset, for me he's stronger. Shin Orochi is nice too, but I don't know why I don't like him :/

That's not a good way to judge as WO2 is general is much easier than WO1. If the game was as hard as WO was, Shin Orochi would be more difficult.

Orochi. Shin Orochi gets props for a better and more badass design, and a wicked moveset but the regular Orochi just left more of an impact on me. I'm kinda comparing this in a WO1 vs WO2 sense but I just gotta go for the original.

Yes, I know that WO2 is easier than WO1, but I'm comparing the characters, not the game in itself.

When my sister first did a Koshi Castle stage[which I just remembered, she did SW'a], she lost because Orochi killed Nobunaga. And every one of her allies were ganging up on Orochi.

Then everyone kept saying how awesome Orochi X was and how hard he was to beat. Even if the whole game itself is easier, I still expected more out of Shin Orochi.
