Warriors Orochi 3 $29.99 New/$27.99 Used @ GS

Warriors Orochi 3 $29.99 @ Amazon

Amazon is currently out of stock, but the game can still be ordered for fulfillment at a later time...

I wish I would have waited on this one, but it's supposed rarity made me buy it at full price (plus the UK/Europe only retail version for the PS3). This game is awesome (best Musou game in years) and is worthy of this price Enjoy!

For you jealous PS3 only owners, you can enjoy the physical UK release here:

Warriors Orochi 3 £34.35 ($53.40) w/Shipping @ Shopto.net

This one was the best on in the "Warriors Orochi" series but I still think Dynasty Warriors 7 had the best storylines when you compared them together.

Told Amazon. Hopefully they match since I have credit there.

Nice, might pick this up if amazon pms.

Good deal, but I'm bummed that there isn't a disc version for PS3.

Yeah i would prefer this on PS3 as well.. but the no disc thing stops me from getting it as well. I am not looking forward to this download only revolution that all the publishers think is coming.

It's because of Sony. They have a rule against non-English dubbed games getting retail releases, which is why it had to be released as a download only title. Same reason why the One Piece warriors game that is coming out is being released digital only as well. At least that's the reason I hear.

Obviously they have deals worked out with certain publishers though. Yakuza is subbed only, as well as some JRPGs, and they get retail releases.

I'm eventually going to import the PS3 Asian version of this game though.

This is an really good game. I got it off psn. I still wish koei would take alitte more off the digital price. :/

Had to order the PAL version of Warriors Orochi 3 to get a hard copy for the PS3. Already have One Piece on preorder from Zavvi. Stupid Sony making me jump through hoops for these games.

Amazon price match.

This has way better gameplay than DW7...letting you change the equipped weapons of the characters was a huge mistake that took all of their uniqueness away. This has a TON of characters, all with unique movesets, and you can bring three into battle at once. There are also special attacks and swap attacks, not in DW7. The in-battle gameplay is clearly better, both in terms of characters/moves and also the scenarios and enemy troop count.

Only thing I don't like about this game is that the skill trees from DW7 are gone and the environments are kind of ugly for the most part.

Amazon matched. Woo.

Grabbed one to complete my OCD Warriors collection.

Didn't you read up a few posts, Cao?

I hate to pay this much for any game but for some reason this one refuses to drop in price and this is the lowest I have seen it get. I'm guessing this might become rare at some point so the resell price will probably remain about at this level for some time.

Regardless, more dynasty warriors is always a good thing. In for one.

That is straight up retarded, I always collect my games on PS3, I can't stand the 360 controls for beat-em ups. The only other option would be to get the PAL ver which got a physical release for the PS3

Currently awaiting on Way of the Samurai 4 and Yakuza 5.

Still mad this game was Digital Only on PS3, taking up such a huge chunk of my HDD <_<. On the upside, atleast we get One Piece Pirate Warriors exclusivity (Yet its digital again....).

But seriously, i think Koei is getting lazy on us lately. DW7 Empires is already also confirmed to be digital only
