I liked this game, when I was younger.
It was fun to play and I wish I still had it, as I was rather dissapointed recently, when I remembered it and found out there were no re-releases for systems I own.
Havn´t found a game like that in some time now.
I beat this multiple times as a kid, it has a gameplay style that no other series has (Seriously, how has NO ONE cribbed from this and the first game?) Where you command units to attack or do other things, and then you can zoom in on fights (With Hundreds of troops on screen, it's a sight to behold.) and have them use abilities to decimate the enemy. It is VERY loosely based on Romance of the 3 Kingdoms (Like extremely loosely, Liu Bei and Diao Chan are a thing and friggin' Yamato Queen Himiko is working for Cao Cao.). But I digress, this is a gameplay style that is yet to be copied/imitated (To my Chagrin.) (Any Indie Devs out there? Try making a game that plays like this.).
And real quick, Tecmo-Koei if for whatever reason you are reading this......I need a Kessen Orochi.
This was my first foray into the three kingdoms as a kid, and it captivated me. I loved bringing down my special abilities on the enemy troops and manoeuvring my soldiers into the correct positions to execute plans and strategies. It was a great little introduction to tactics and the three kingdoms. It's a great game.
Kessen 2 is one of my favorite childhood games. My grandfather owned it I just picked it up and played it on his ps2. He ended up giving it to me since I liked it so much. I lost all my childhood games and consoles over the years, so I no longer have them. I decided to buy a refurbished ps2 to play some games, but it only works sometimes at best. So, I can only imagine having a digital copy of my favorite games to enjoy forever.

Black & White 2In the game, the player takes the role of a god called from the void (nothingness) to help those who invoked them. However, the player is not an omnipotent style god, but rather a god who rises and falls with his believers and the player must help develop their nature according to their good or evil desires. The player also has a creature, their physical representation in the world, which takes the form of an anthropomorphic ape, lion, wolf, turtle, cow, or tiger. Its physical manifestation can grow to an immense size, and adopt a good or evil persona separate of the player's. They develop their character as the player rewards or punishes their actions. In addition to the god simulation and city-building elements introduced in the original Black & White, Black & White 2 also features elements of real-time strategy gameplay, with the addition of controllable warfare and fighting units.Top Action Fantasy Comedy Sandbox
Metal Gear Solid HD CollectionFrom the critically acclaimed director, Hideo Kojima, Metal Gear Solid HD Collection offers a handful of the most popular Metal Gear Solid titles from the past in true HD for the first time ever. Featuring three complete games, Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty, Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, the HD Collection offers old and new fans a chance to experience the epic game play, design and storytelling of the MGS franchise. The "Metal Gear Solid (MGS)" series is the seminal work of Hideo Kojima, Japan's master game creator, and the progenitor of the stealth action game genre. The series has become a global phenomenon, with over 27 million copies sold worldwide. The player controls a secret agent from an elite special forces unit who is sent on solo sneaking missions through enemy installations, vast jungles, and sometimes even the thick of battle. Alone and surrounded by the enemy, even a special forces agent will find it tough to come out alive. But that is the secret behind the series' popularity-the cerebral challenge of figuring out how to avoid combat, and the thrill of sneaking through enemy territory undetected.The MGS series is also known for its storyline, which blends seamlessly with the gameplay. The scenarios are based on extensive research and incorporate the drama of actual developments in society. These elements have made MGS what it is today: a mature work of entertainment that transcends national borders and the confines of video games, and one of the leading products of the Japanese content business.Action Stealth
