Heh, I know a lot of fans have moved onto dw6(alas, not everyone has a ps3 or 360), but I am totally drooling over that announcement on the KOEI Warriors site for Musou Orochi: Rebirth of the Demon Lord. As I've said here before, I was holding out hope for some sort of WO:XL featuring the SW2:XL characters and not only does it do just that, but it has Fu Xi and Nu Wa also. I only hope the SW characters all have their extra sw2:XL charge attacks. I'm just happy to have Toshiie and Kojiro to be thrown into the three person mixes.
But since its apparently a sequel rather than a XL, does that mean I'd have to do everything for everyone all over again? I guess that's a total of 86 characters? Fu Xi and Nu Wa plus the 6 from SW2:XL sans Yoshimoto, since he's already in WO?
They only list a Japanese release date for the PS2, but surely the Xbox360 folks would get it also? Owel, it comes out in April in Japan, so going by standard Koei practices, it should be here in November?

Whee! I can't wait! And DW6 in 3 weeks!

i loved WO (asides from the weak story)... and this one seems packed w. more options/characters. whoo hooo!
//end spaz//
thank you for the news! ^^ it's been awhile since i've checked the KOEI site. :)

I had fun playing WO with my little cousins. Crossovers are awesome!
Fu Xi and Nu Wa finally shows up and they look great.
Aww.. DW6 is coming soon and I don't have a PS3.

Date: 2008-01-31 06:20 pm (UTC)Especially with the new modes and from the looks of it, how they seem to be trying to squeeze a bit of DW1 in there.
Despite how most people seem to react to them Fu Xi and Nu Wa aswell... I honestly never thought they'd ever be in a game again aside from the edits always coming extremely close to their designs. It makes me extremely excited and happy.
