I must confess to never watching the film - the main reason I bought this game was that I have been waiting for a good free roaming beat 'em up since the Streets of Rage games on the Mega Drive. The genre has never successfully made the transition into 3D before The Warriors.Intitially, I was slightly underwhelmed by this game. The opening training mission was great for introducing the controls (which are very good) and characters but the second proper mission is far too long, drawn out and boring. After that's done the game really picks up and is so hard to put down.The sheer variety of gameplay and objectives on offer is impressive - it's not just mindless fighting from start to finish.You may have to cause as much destruction in a certain area as possible, spray tag The Warriors logo on walls, evade chases from other gangs, protect an area from a rival gang... the list goes on and on.Even though this is a Rockstar game, this isn't to be confused with the GTA series. The Warriors is not as open ended and is much more clearly structured - it is divided into specific missions with set areas to explore (no huge city to explore at will). This is a different game entirely to GTA and has to be more linear in scope.All the levels are set at night in 1970s New York as the game follows The Warriors in the months running up to the plot of the film. For fans of the film, the voice acting is done by the original cast members and is quite good.This wouldn't be a typical Rockstar game if it didn't have lots of violence and bad language - and there's quite a lot in this game. You can put enemies through windows, use weapons and objects to throw at enemies or hit them with (knives, bottles, bricks, etc), throw molotov coctails or smash an opponents head against a wall. You can also steal car stereos and break into some stores (by picking the lock or sometimes just smashing your way in). The Warriors has deservedly been given an 18 rating.Overall this is a hugely addictive game that will last ages - there are loads of unlockables to open up, from bonus missions/objectives to characters in Rumble Mode - a side game that basically comprises of rival gang members or entire gangs battling it out in an enclosed environment (although I've hardly played this mode as it didn't hold my interest for very long). I would recommend you give The Warriors a go, even if you're not a fan of the film.

Im a huge fan of the movie "The Warriors". It was filmed in 1979 when new york was known for having a terrible crime record with gangs mugging, raping, stealing, pretty much any crime a man can commit.The movie was ultra slick and very violent for its time and even today can still be viewed as quite a violent look on late 1970's gang warfare.Everyone knows rockstar, being responsible for the hugely popular GTA series. When I heard they were doing a game version of the warriors i was slightly unsure if they could pull it off.Scrolling beat em ups have had a great past history with streets of rage and final fight but the transition from 2d to 3d has been pretty dismal.Right from the start of playing this game you can tell rockstar have done their homework.The game opens with the same film opening scene, except with actual game footage. They have secured the rights for the original soundtrack and also drafted in the actors from the film such as james remarr for the voice acting.Graphical wise, the game doesnt look as hot as other beat em ups, however when you consider how many game characters are on screen you will realise they have to sacrafice for this.Missions are pretty varied but as you would expect involve alot of random fights and boss fights.The game will last a long time. Some missions involve alot of work and along the way you can take on submissions. The game also has alot to unlock such as gangs to play with on the rumble games and extra missions such as how the warrior gang orignally formed.You will find it easy to pick up and play but very hard to put down. Not much to fault on this game apart from the camera view being slightly annoying at times but other than that, rockstar has created a new fresh wake up for the beat em up genre.

Yes We Can. Rockastar once again explodes onto the gaming scene with an epic masterpiece of violence and wonder. Based on the cult classic of 1979, the Warriors follows the story of the street gang, of the same name, in Coney Island, from their humble beginings (using flashbacks unlocked after some levels) to their fateful night alone in New York with 60,000 men between them and their turf. Many will not trust this game due to the utter dissapointment of Manhunt, another game based around the Rockstar GTA engine (bought by me simply because of the controversy after it's release), but this will not dissapoint. You begin playing as the new player Rembrandt, a self made graffiti artist,and continue through the story mode as many of the different gang members, such as Ajax (a good fighter), or Cleon (leader of the Warriors). Missions range from Graffiti Showdowns, to destroying enemy gang art galleries, from killing an old friend for money, to scrambling across roof tops, this game makes for great playing. With an intense fighting system and the ability to mug, steal and cause general panic this makes for one of the best Rockstar, and Xbox games yet.

Never got to play The Warriors when it was originally released for PS2 and Xbox, recently purchased an xbox off a mate who was selling his because of moving house. All i can say is that rockstar did it again with this game. Theres loads to do. I suppose you could call this a hark back to the 2d fighting games of yesteryear but only in 3d. The fighting is quite basic with punches and kicks, also diving tackles which lead to pummeling your opponent on the ground. But theres also shops to break into, car stereos to steal, graphitti spraying and more. The game starts of about 3 months before the film starts and details the rise of the warriors then through the fatal night where they become pariahs and hunted by all the other gangs in New York.The 18 cert is warranted there loads of violence and swearing here but if you still own an xbox and have not played this game then get it now!! On a final note don't expect state of the art graphics, there good but not great but they don't detract from the game.

I completed it about 2 years ago and am bored in work so thought I'd come back and give it the thumbs up it deserves.One thing that stood out for me is the AI. Throughout the game you'll find yourself in gang rumbles. Everyone gets stuck in and your buddies really cover your back (95% of the time). I hate other games where your so called buddies are completely useless e.g. CODWAW. They get in your way or stand around doing nothing while you die.Theres a lot of good old fashion button bashing when things get violent but it never gets boring or feels monotonous. You can hit people with bottles, bricks, bats and anything else you can pick up. Plus, the sound effects when you connect are fantastic.It actually feels like your doing someone considerable damage.This review is bringing back some good memories. I hope its compatible with my 360 cause I gave to old xbox away. Next generation or not, a good game is always a good game!10 out of 10 baby!

The warriors is a game i bought for my xbox in 2005 and i always pull out my old xbox to play this good game ,if you dont like violence and street gangs dont buy this game,worriors does not work on xbox 360 so dont complain that it does not.the warrior game is fun and the combat system is very easy to get to grips with ,you can also do double attacks on you enemies with bricks ,bottles or wood.the graphics are a little dated but this games is 8 years old so ,that should not spoil your game play experience.the game is based on the movie and it is full of cut scenes from the film and it uses the actors voices.the games is set in 1979 new york and it include music from that time.worrior is aviolent criminal street sim ,the good thing about the worrior is that when you complete the game you can fight all the other street gang in the small sub games .warrior is a must buy for the xbox owner.

Smashing heads into walls, stealing car stereos, raiding shops, mugging civillians and tagging up your turf, it's a Rockstar game alright. If you havent seen the film, like myself you will be compelled to play just to see the story pan out, although i think that is all that kept me playing, as after 23 missions of head stomping, baseball bat beating action evrything becomes a bit tiresome. The flashback missions in the game offer fans of the film some nice background stories on the warriors and how they came to be. Overall a decent game that is limited by it's faithful following of the original story line. CAN YOU DIG IT?!

If you enjoyed manhunt or any of the GTA series you will surely love this it has a combination of both sneeking up on people peforming stealth moves (Like on Manhunt) and you can free roam around the streets of new york with your gang of nine fighting off the gangs that want you dead (GTA)If you get bored of the story mode, there is also a rumble mode where you take part in different fights with teams with or without your gang.For those of you who haven't seen the film i won't spoil the plot but the story is very good.Like i said if liked Manhunt you will like this.

so suprised when this came out, since the film had been done years ago. i suggest you watch the film 1st then play the game, ull enjoy it more. the gampeplay is excellent and my fav part is the strikes u can do, especially when attacking 1 person, and elbowing some1 from behind. the game is long, and will take time to finish. variety is brilliant, as you play practically all the warrior members from, cleon, swan and myy fav AJAX. also if your bored play the rumble mode, its wicked when you have 4 pads hooked up. overall a game worth buying. 9/10.

never seen the film but got lent the game by a mate. I thought it was amazing. The combat is intense and the variety of moves through the gang is very good. The story mode is excellent but the game is increased by a 'rumble mode'. This is pretty cool addition which you can play with your friends, but it is doubtful you will spend too much time playing it on your own.overall, a very enjoyable game which will keep you entertained for a good few hours!!!

This game i simply the best movie adapted game i have played and probably will be for a long time to come. The gamplay is absloutley amazing and the fact you can beat the hell out of so many people gives alot of gamer satisfaction. If god played violent games like this we would probably be living in a violent world. 5 out of 5 if i could give any more i would. Wouldn't give this game a second to think of returning it. well done folks.

This game harks back to the age of the late 70's and 80s youth counter culture. Just like the film, you can play any of the characters from the gang as well as any of the characters from other gangs in the rumble mode. This is such a rare and retro game and I was glad to be able to find it. The item was in great condition and the service was fantastic. Look forward to buying more of these classics.

This game is amazingly good fun I bought it for £1 recently as a punt to see if it would run on 360, sadly it wont, but if you have an original xbox and want a great game this is definately a good'un
