Kessen is the first DVD PS2 title, and boy, what a difference a DVD-ROM makes. Kessen's fantastic cut-scenes showcase the difference between the visual capabilities of non-DVD and DVD formats.The pace of the battles is extremely slow; the difficulty, however, is not. Many times you are given so many reinforcements that you just cannot lose; couple this with a 20-second cut scene with no obvious way to skip them and you start to get a game that can at times become a little annoying.Kessen goes too far, in that every battalion has a morale level, called zeal, as well as a certain number of soldiers of different types. Each general has a different amount of loyalty to you, but it really doesn't affect game play as far as we could tell.Although the potential is there, Kessen fails to meet its expectations and unlike other RTS games, there is hardly ever any cause for alarm if you are losing, and you will feel like there's not a lot you could do about it anyway if you were. --Todd Mowatt The graphics are awesome as well. In a triple barrage, three rows of gunmen draw and fire their guns. Not everyone does it at exactly the same time, and the number of men goes back as far as the eye can see. The smart choreography makes the battle seem much more real. In fact, you can actually see other soldiers fighting as the general's duel. Read more Kessen
