Let's Play Dynasty Warriors 6 Ma Chao (Shu pt1) Battle of Tong Gate

Dynasty Warriors 6: Special for the PlayStation 2 is a revised and overhauled version of Dynasty Warriors 6.
Some of the changes:
- Musou modes for Ma Chao, Yue Ying, Cao Pi, Zhang He, Taishi Ci, and Ling Tong (the six characters receive new weapons and movesets).
- The characters's alternate colors have slight variations and accents. This mostly applies to the six unique characters for Special.
- Renbu now decreases at a slower rate.
- To compensate for the downgrade, the port has lower resolution graphics and models compared to the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions.
It also suffers from heavy slowdown and "disappearing" enemies.
This is most likely because of the porting to a previous generation console with limited memory capabilities.
Dueling and swimming have been removed. Water will always be shallow enough for the players to run through.
- Some new stages: Battle of Jiang Dong, Struggle at He Bei, Battle of Tong Gate, Battle of Ru Xu Kou, Battle of Jie Ting.

In Dynasty Warriors 6, there is one new addition is the Renbu system, a new way for characters to build up their attack combos.
In previous installments in the series, combos were affected by the quality of weapon the character was wielding.
Performing attacks and dealing damage to the enemy fills the Renbu gauge, if you take a lot of damage or go for a long time without inflicting damage then the gauge will drop back down to the previous level.

Another major addition is the skill tree, from which characters can earn higher Renbu Ranks, special abilities and improve their attributes.
In Dynasty Warriors 6 horses must now be unlocked by collecting saddles from boxes or beaten officers.
These horses can gain levels, skills, and some can even change into the legendary Red Hare, although this is very rare.

Two new "innovations" to the series are the abilities to swim and climb ladders.
The ladder means that the player can now climb onto castle battlements in scenarios such as the Battle of Hu Lao Gate.
Swimming allows you to travel across rivers and other bodies of water in order to attack your enemies from other flanks.

This is the PS2 version.
