Unlocking Characters

On a totally unrelated note to what i've been doing for the past few days. I have managed to unlock all 42 characters in Dynasty Warriors (PSP). You start out with 15 playable characters and more characters would be unlocked as you complete the game. Basically you have 5 characters from each of the 3 countries (Shu, Wei and Wu). When all characters are unlocked, you have Shu - 11 playable, Wei - 11 playable, Wu - 13 playable and Others - 7 playable.

For another game, Gundam Battle Tactics (PSP). You get to unlock various gundams and mechas as you play the game and achieve a certain ranking (either S or A). Then u get to unlock the gundams.

Its kinda interesting how they ensure that you continue playing the game by hiding certain characters or mechas. Interesting concept similar to TV serials where they stop at the interesting part. Its a talent i suppose to know when to stop to ensure that people continue on. Cos if u stop at a lousy area its so weird and no one wants to watch it.
