Why Dynasty Warriors Is The Greatest Videogame Series Ever

[Ack]

Jim Sterling wrote an article about how awesome Dynasty Warriors is!

...ok, so it's really more a joke on the whole series, but frankly it had such great quotes I couldn't help but share it with you guys. I mean, how could you not love such quotes as:

"It's like Mozart had sex with Roy Orbison and had a baby made out of pure music, isn't it? Isn't it?"

"Capcom's Devil Kings was retarded, swapping a dynamic battle system for a smoke n' mirrors approach to combat, helped along by cheap shots, awful visuals and a stunningly terrible localization from the Japanese original to the Western release. Sega's Spartan: Total Warrior was a mess of disgusting escort missions and rubbish attempts at innovation such as "AI," which made the game too hard. Ninety Nine Nights was incomprehensible, overly simplistic and glitchy. Then there's Square Enix and Drakengard, which was just a big pile of semen. Not even good semen, the kind of semen that Bluto would produce."

"Dynasty Warriors pioneered a gimmick known as "slowdown," in which the framerate completely drops when a lot of action is happening onscreen. This is done to provide an atmospheric and jawdropping view of the battle as it happens. It's also rumored that the scenes are so intense, anybody viewing the battle at normal speed would get their heads blown up like in Scanners."

Yeah, you know you want to read it.

That was a pretty good article, though I did not think the dig at Holy Diver was warrented.

Jim Sterling is what keeps D-Toid afloat.

True.

That was hilarious. What makes it even funnier is I know at least one Dynasty Warriors fanboy who would take it seriously.
