Far Cry 3 And The Stranger In A Strange Land Shogun 2 Total War is released this week on PC, and we’ve been a little guilty of neglecting what looks like an incredible game in terms of scale. This multiplayer walkthrough goes into quite a bit of detail regarding what can be expected from the online section of the game. Worth a gander.
Sega and the Creative Assembly’s sharp-looking Shogun 2: Total War – or Total War: Shogun 2, depending on who you ask – will get a limited edition release next year, but today it gets a beefy video preview of deep tactical gameplay.

The Creative Assembly knows how to make Japanese real-time strategy very attractive, going by this new Shogun 2: Total War cinematic trailer that was “captured in-game.” Based on Shogun 2′s gorgeous artwork and screens, it shouldn’t be that surprising.
While you’re waiting for your chance to play some sci-fi, real-time strategy, why not browse through some lovely screens and concept art from Shogun 2: Total War, visiting a simpler time when war didn’t involve zergling rushes.
