A game that has changed strategy gaming forever. While this is hardly my favourite game ever, it was a game of many firsts, set in an interesting era and is, in the long view, still one of creative assembly's best titles only really beaten in my opinion by the subsequent Rome: Total War. From the entertaining and high-quality video cut-scenes to the ability to throw hundreds of samurai against your enemies, this game was a great opening title. It only misses out on a 8 score due to the risk-style movement of armies, absence of any meaningful diplomacy and often repetitive border map battles. Certainly one that I wouldn't say no to a 3D sequel.
