My first was DW 3, but I didnt have much of an interest. I didn't know what to do or where to go. But I sat down and played DW4 and I got used to it and turned out it was alot simpler than I was making it out to be. So far I've laided to rest DW4 (ps2), DW5 (xbox), DW 5 Empires (360), SW (ps2), SW 2 (360, although I only have two more officers to get), and I'm still pluggin away at SW 2 Empires. I even enjoyed the Mystic Warrior game on gamecube.
N3 was ok. It looked great, played like a true DW game, but it seriously lacked the sheer number and variety of characters the warriors series boasts, which is one of the things I love about warriors games. I don't play the handhelds versions though. And I'm really interested to see what Koei is going to do with the Warriors franchise on the Wii. There is one so far that I'm aware of, but I haven't heard much about it. Bladestorm sounds great too, with a new medevil theme.
Has anyone played Devil Kings on PS2? Once again, a picture perfect copy of the warriors gameplay, but from Capcom. It was made by the same team that gave us Resident Evil and Devil May Cry. It had a whole fictional Japanese/Chinese them with lots of great anime cutscenes and really cool characters.
No sympathy for the Devil. Buy the ticket, take the ride. Don't take any guff from these swine, man.
