The Sengoku period of Japanese history was a time of civil war that saw rival Daimyo battling for dominance in their attempts to re-unite Japan.

Koei Tecmo brings you the latest game in their hack and slash fighting series, Samurai Warriors 3. According to the reviewer, "I’m all for having a good mindless button mashing experience, but it has to be wrapped around an engaging story or a solid combat system and unfortunately Samurai Warriors 3 doesn’t really have that."
TGH Writes: "We last heard from the Samurai Warriors series about four years ago with Samurai Warriors 2. With Samurai Warriors 3 already released in Japan and Europe, it’s time for America to prepare for battle with Samurai Warriors 3. Samurai Warriors 3 also found a new home on Nintendo’s Wii console.

isn't it ironic that the only warriors game ever to get above a 5 or 6 just so happens to be published by nintendo, despite it being the exact same game as the others? hmmmm....
