The word Kessen means "Decisive Battle" in Japanese, specifically those which were fought in early part of 17th centuary Japan.This title is very different to conventional real-time strategy games that you may be used to on PCs. This I found refreshing. You'll focus more on the capabilities, actions and tactical strategy of a number of troops then macro-managing each individual soldier (which to be honest - is a godsend, given the kind of numbers you're working with!)First off, the graphics are first class - and by that I mean the quality, detail and scale of waging battles of such magnitude. It is truly a cinematic experience.During battles there is a fine blend of pre-scripted animation sequences using the in game graphics engine and real-time,

This is one of the few ps2 strategies worth spending money on.It eases you in getting gradually difficult instead of throwing you into a ridiculously difficult battle that you have no hope of winning so you sell or return your game.The interface is very easily used.The special abilities can help you win a losing battle and managing your troops morale is a challenge but the game is rewarding and makes you want to play on to the end. There are many generals and you get to play as both factions. i can't remember how many stages there are but there are quite a few. if you work out strategies you may be there for a while as i have played some missions for a few hours.This game could even be compared with shogun:total war as it is so good.

Kessen, at a glace, is a crappy, hardcontrolled game with a nice shiny surface, dipped a number of times in saucy CG-intros. But when you begin to look under the surface of the game, on the actual gameplay, you might find something you didn't think a game like this could have. Scheaming. Thats right, even if it's not like the C&C-games (where you controll each unit individually) you van set up actual real formations, lure the enemy into scissor-formation, box or other traps and destroy him. And it works! Sometimes. ;)So who cares if the outfits isn't true to the timeperiod? The story is based on real battles and the movies, ahh, the movies. Even the in-storymodes are sometimes real CG-renders.

when i first got my PS2 i had no idea what were the good games and what were the bad ones. i got it at toys r us with 2 games, tekken tag and kessen. when i first got it my bro was saying how s*it both games were but cos the only mag i got had no reviews, i had to go with the ones that looked good. i Got this and at first... it seemed i should've got another game. But as i got fursther into the games i realised just how great it is. The movie cut scenes are magnificent and add to the game superbly. the tension, the drama my only one problem is that there is no multiplayer!

now everyone hates history lessons but the japanese were vicous this game is a real treat it allows you to blow stuff up and take out ure frustration all at once. the graphics are really good you can see the facial expressions and everything. there might not be blood but it is fun to watch people get stabbed over and over again! the only down side is that they constantly repeat the battle scenes so u know whats going to happen but other than tha it great. a must have for startegy players and a game that will keep you busy while ure friends put the kettle on:)

A master strategy game that enables you to control your army but also use politics as a tool to make enemies defect! A great game that needs strategy, cunning and and a mind that can react to each and every twist! Enjoy!
