When I heard that a Warriors Orochi game was coming to the PS3, I was quite excited. Finally, a current-gen iteration of the biggest and most interesting Warriors game Koei has ever made. However, the disappointing news is that Warriors Orochi Z is not a brand new Orochi title, it's merely the first Warriors Orochi and its sequel glued together.

One new playable character is confirmed, along with another non-playable one. In addition, you will be able to choose your own characters for the storyline modes and not be limited to a select few generals. There is also the promise of "many more stages."

This will probably sell like crazy in Japan, as all Warriors games do, but I must admit that this saddens me. I want to play an Orochi game that actually takes advantage of the PS3's hardware, not just takes advantage of Japanese consumers.
