*Le 2 sur PS2*

Koei fait partie du bal et développe ce qui est donc un nouveau Dynasty Warriors, série à succès au Japon et néanmoins à bout de souffle.Ce jeu fatiguera-t-il les joueurs s'il sejoue à la wiimote?

Je vous annonçais une Wii qui devait être 20% supérieure à la Gamecube techniquement.En fait non.

La Wii sera en fait 20% plus économe en énergie que la Gamecube selon IBM
