The game is great, but it could've been a lot better. There's no Free Mode, only an extended Empire Mode. There's also no "Load Original" to give us anything from the original DW6. The Empire Mode is great, and the mode to let you use your own Warriors is good. Surprising, the game is merely a Menu screen where you can draw "Cards" and use them, upgrade your weapons, go to the shop, or go to battle. You can't even position your troops at the places you've captured either. I didn't think they'd get rid of any features from the old DW5: Empires but they have. They also didn't add any XBOX Live gameplay available, which would have been good. However, there are less generic weapons now (except for the women) as they've changed a few people's weapons. They brang back one old character but no other one's, which is a shame. However, they are offering free DLC (music and CAW armour), so they may make old characters available through DLC.
