I just find it ridiculous that the game is getting largely ignored by big retailers.

Most of the European/Asian websites have DW7 up, yet the one's for the American audience are so far behind..

Are you REALLY surprised?

The Koei games are hated as much as Tingle from Legend of Zelda in the US.

You right though. Mainly with DW 7, they miswell get it up there and honestly I think it'll be best Koei game released this year so I don't see why there are others up over DW 7.


oh shitlitz it's up for preorder.

When you get your hands on the game, what will you play first?

Kingdom Mode or Chronicle Mode?

What Force for Kingdom Mode first?

Which character in Chronicle Mode first?

For me, I'll play Kingdom Mode and Shu would be my first try, then I'll play CHronicle mode with Jia Xu first...

How bout you guys?

The only problem is this on DW7s page on GameStop:

Notice
Official pricing and release date have not been announced by Tecmo Koei and are subject to change.

But, as I said before, I wrote to GameStop again a few minutes ago & told them that Tecmo Koei already announced the US release date, and it's March 22nd, and for further confirmation I gave them the link to the TecmoKoeiUS website.

So check back in a few days to see if GameStop has the release date up, and that the pre-order option is available.

Also..I wonder when we'll see the DW7 box art.. :hmmm:

i would play kingdom mode first, cause im so excited to see, what they did with the story. probably i'll start with wei. i would like to play jin first, but it makes more sense to start with wei.
in chronicle mode, i'll maybe start with zhong hui or another new character or maybe yuan shao :wub: .

Kingdom mode first to get the main story down. I'll probably play as Shu first. Then I'll switch over to Chronicle Mode and I don't know who I'll choose. It will probably be an "in the moment" decision.

It's a shame Koei games are largely overlooked in the Western Hemisphere. That's the main reason why a lot of sites lack proper info on the game.

That makes two of us! Guan Yu has always been my favorite character, so I'll be using him first in Chronicle (Conquest) Mode :)

Then Jia Xu after..or whoever happens to catch my interest (everyone!) lol Or probably Zhong Hui ^^

Koei is both overlooked and has a bad rap in the West. It basically boils down to "that company that makes DW and DW clones" to them, even though Koei was a strategy-game maker(ROTK, Nobunaga's Ambition, Genghis Khan, Taiko Risshiden, Uncharted Waters...) first and is known for that just as much if not more so in the East.

I'm sure somewhere in Japan, a small community is lamanting how the first person shooting games aren't as popular in Japan as they are in the US.

Stragetic 3rd person action role playing games just aren't popular in the West and the foreign subject matter doesn't help either. Not to mention the game on it's 7th sequel is just unheard of in the West. I'm pretty sure we won't be seeing a Call of Duty 7 or Halo 7 either.

First off, way to go Trevor. Guess where I'll be going tomorrow to preorder my copy... teach that mean ol' Gamestop a lesson.

And secondly, Koei needs to step up their game and make another Kessen game. COME ON. Try it with the ROTK setting, AND MAKE IT A LITTLE MORE SERIOUS THIS TIME? None of that surfing Ma Chao unit, or breakdancing Meng Huo, or sky ninjas...

Okay, keep the sky ninjas, they were pretty entertaining.

Isn't Black Ops technically Call of Duty 6 or 7?

Certain regions will always be biased on their gaming interests. Koei will likely never be well-received in America due to its repetitive and foreign-historical nature. At the same time, the Madden and CoD series will always get 9/10+ scores even though it is literally the same game every single time. It's a shame, but that's just how it works. Thank god for you guys keeping track of the DW series, else I'd never be able to get decent info on it.

It may not be that simple, my dear. DW7 was just added to the GameStop website, but they don't even have the March 22nd release date up..I had to write them a second time about that.

So I am unsure if you can pre-order the game from an actual GameStop store at the moment, because GameStop stores have to physically add the game to their roster of games to be released.

But, you can still give it a try, and tell me how it goes.

Ha ha Call of duty black ops is the 7th one.
*counts on fingers* Indeed! So, perhaps it's not so unheard of for games to make it into the 7th version in the states. And I'm pretty sure Call of Duty to the Japanese is like Dynasty Warriors to the West as far as "constructive criticism" goes.

Guess I got to start my own advertising when I go in to my next shift, then. It helped get a few SB:SH and SW3 in people's consoles, I'm sure I can muster the magic with this game.

Edit: @Trevor- Well, not having a concrete date never stopped them from being on the reservation list before. If that was the case, then games like Zelda: Skyward Sword would remain illusive until weeks before its REAL release date.

I'll let you know, one way or another. Need to finish paying off ME2 for the PS3 anyway (YES, I AM A BIOWARE WHORE. Only western based company that I'll give my undying support to.)

You forgot Dynasty Tactics :(

They hate DW because they find it *the same* (like every OTHER franchise) but possibly becasue they think the hack and slash doesn't feel like God of War where everything gets kaowned by special effects.

I was surprised when I mentioned the game and one of my friends was like
"Yo **** that game is sick! I use the guy with the spiky hair and stuff." (Sun Jian)
I was like :o then :dance:
