Product ReviewsRomance of the Three Kingdoms IX (Sony PlayStation 2, 2004)

Good Game, If you have Time and Patience.

This game has a lot of things going on. You have to be patience and build up kingdoms and send out armies when the time is right. Unlike RTK VIII you do not get to fight the battles, they fight themselves. A really nice part of the game is that you can create bases and walls to prevent enemies from attacking you main castles. Overall this is a good game if you have a lot of time to play and dont mind going slow.Read full review...

PS2 Romance of the 3 kingdoms 9

I love the whole series, but would have been better if they had re released to first three games on to ps or ps2. I never got why they put romance 5 on the psp. But other then that game play and story are great in all of these i like 9 alot but i enjoy playing them all that i have that were on ps2. If you like rpg style stratgey games then this series is one to invest time and a lil money since alot of this series is listed rare.Read full review...

RTK IX - Possibly the WORST RTK

RTK IX is dramatic flop for the series. First and foremost, it is very difficult to learn , it NOT USER FRIENDLY. Second, you basically fall backwards to the old format of having to chose an existing ruler which takes alot of the creativity out of creating your own character. Third, the passage of time is painfully to slow for this particular game. RTK IX goes in increments of Early Jan 189 Mid Jan 189 Late Jan 189.... In RTK X, you can ADJUST ANY AMOUNT of time you want to pass. Thats what its all about: Options and flexibility. Lastly, you don't even NEED to conquer all the territories to achieve conquest. All you need to do is conquer the minimum rulers in the scenario and any vacant cities are not counted. There really isn't any real excitement when playing this game. You don't really feel there is any purpose to it. I bought my copy off EBAY and then I sold it on EBAY some months later.

In short, RTK IX is dull, unmoving, tedious and silly.Read full review...

Most Unique of the Series

This is probably my favorite from the RTK series.

This one focused more on "macro" management. Single map interface, much less "cheap/easy" ways to get goals accomplished. This one is certinaly more unique in game play than others in the series to date.

It requires much strategy and patience to win. If you are into turn based strategy, this one will keep you busy for awhile...Read full review...

This is another outstanding game in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms series.

Thumbs way up. A+++

This game is of a dying genre breed. It is TBS/RPG strategy very fun to play my father and I have spent HUNDREDS of hours hotseating it... Its great for getting stuff done around the house as later in a scenario each player has hundreds of orders to give which can make turns very long.Read full review...

Best Strategy Game Every

This game is one of the best Strategy games I have ever had the opportunity to play. I just wish they would come out with something similar for ps 3. If you are not up for strategy games this is not for you.Read full review...
