Is there any other Koei fans out there?  I know there games are repetitive and are sometimes more like a history lession then a video game, but what can I say, I love these games.  I can't decide what my favorite series is from them.  I like Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Kesson and Dinesty Warriors.

 Oh, and is Koei pronounced "Ko - wee"?

It is pronounced with a long O and a long E.  So Kōē.

While they didn't make my favorite game based (loosely) on Chinese history (that would go to Capcom's Destiny of an Emperor), I really dig the Romance of the Three Kingdom games.  I haven't played the latest couple, which is something that I need to remedy.  I've also never played Kessen, now that I think about it...

I like 'em for their MegaDrive titles, but can't really vote for any of the above, as I don't hate them, I like this company, I know who they are, but don't follow the game series, just played what came my way from them knowing it would be good.

I'm going with Romance of the Three Kingdoms on this one as I hate the other two.  Destiny of an Emperor is my perfered favorite of the storyline.

If your a Koei fan, which do you perfer?  The Romance series, Genghis Kahn series, or Nobunaga?

I voted for Romance in the Three Kingdoms, but the best KOEI game IMO is Genghis Khan II: The Grey Wolf Clan for SNES...

Dynasty Warriors was mildly entertaining, even though the entirety of gameplay consisted of smashing the attack button as hard as possible.

I rented Kessen when I bought my PS2 at launch. It almost convinced me to return the system to the store.

I could stand to have my Wii serviced right about now.
