Romance of the Three Kingdoms 8 - PS2 Game

You are looking at Play Station 2 game Romance of the Three Kingdoms VII.

Review from IGN, who give this game an amazing score of 9/10: "... it's not a stretch of the truth to proclaim Romance of the Three Kingdoms VIII the single best PSOne/PS2 strategy game ever released. Better than any previous title in the Romance series, easily eclipsing the Dynasty Tactics and Kessen franchises, and trampling all over the SimCity and Civilization ports, KOEI's excellent simulation of Ancient Chinese diplomacy and warfare is worthy of every compliment we can shower upon it.

Romance of the Three Kingdoms VIII is a truly special experience for any strategy or simulation fan lucky enough to play it, and if sceptical first timers are willing to sit down and give the game a try, it will be for them too. Just don't let the formidable learning curve or lack of things that explode dissuade you; and whatever you do, don't let it pass you by."

Romance of the Three Kingdoms VIII takes the series to new heights. Choose from over 700 commanders, 100 of which you create. Forge relationships such as Marriage and Sworn Brother. Wander, claim territory, enlist, revolt, or unify China and create your own history!

This is the eighth in a long line of popular console strategy games. New additions to this version include improved character relationships, a skills and traits system, and recommended scenarios that re-enact some of the most famous skirmishes of the period.
