Yes. Great games for the hack-and-slash genre.

Yes, I is just like Dynasty Warriors 4. It's a really awsome game, especially the  in side the castle battles, well it's only you that battles into the top level of the castle. I'd give the game a 9.8 out of 10.  
Hate and anger is the fuel of war, while religion and politics is the foundation of it.

On the the greatest I have ever played, and when I was playing it I was goiong through my samurai fetish phase so the experience was even more heightened.

I thought it was a nice game, and a little funny too. For those who know Japanese history very well shoulder know that Nobunaga often teased Mitsuhide Akechi about his receding hairline. In the game however, Mitsuhide is protrayed as having very long hair.

... Well, I found that funny.

in all of these types of games everyone has luxurious hair often of purple of blue hue.

I can almost imagine Nobunaga in a salon having some poor ashigaru work in the neon purple highlights...

All these types of games? Surely you don't mean in Koei's version of the hack-and-slash, as that is definitely not the case. In any of them...

not in that one, but in most anime inspired games that take place in history people have odd scifi armor and purple hair thats 10 feet long, whySamurai Warriors is good is because it doesnt have that crap.

Mainly because it's not anime inspired. I don't know where that idea came from...

Although Koei's first costume for Keiji Maeda does have the ten foot long look to it... or at least 3-4 feet long.
