    3.60 more like. Surely these are just standard xbox shots :-s

    The "Empires" branch-off worked last time because it added some much-needed strategy...

    ... dunno if the pony is going to work twice though. It needs much more sim-stuff to really work...

    What really kills these shots in terms of visual wow factor, is the flat ground covered in a fairly los res boring texture. Surely the next generation should be delivering us something other than completely flat out door scenes.

    The graphics are atrocious for a "next-gen" title.

    Great, so its basically a port of the PS2 version.
    On the upside you get widescreen and a high-def display.
    On the downside the graphics look otherwise unimproved, you wont be able to import any custom officer data from DW5: XL if you've been playing that on the PS2 (unless they are also gonna release that on the 360), and it'll probably cost a few quid more than usual.

    I'm a DW nut so I'll be getting this - just not the 360 version.

    I'm starting to wonder when, if ever, will we see true next-gen titles from the x360.

    It doesn't look good at all, but that could be down to the fact it's a shite game in the first place.

    When the hell are Koei going to get with the times with this repetition fest?

    360? looks like PSP from those screens

    A lot of people, apparantly.

    Sad thing is, aside the polish, it looks like it hasn't improved much on DW4: Empires.

    Koei. Masters of complacency.
