Nuts for the Argonauts!

I really did enjoy this game. I have many games that I start, play for awhile, do not complete and then put on a shelf to finish at some latter date. This game was not one of those. I played it all the way to the end without ever removing it from my gaming system. The game itself is more of a action adventure with some role playing elements. It mainly concentrates on vanquishing your foes on the battlefield, but there are many other side quests that do not require violence. You do not level up instead you earn favor with the gods by the way you interact with other characters, by your actions or by dedicating your deeds to them. As you gain their favor you earn points that you can spend to gain special feats which make you more powerful. Some of these feats are always on, others you activate as god powers. If you favor a hack and slash style of game with some elements of role playing or enjoy Greek Mytholigy (as the story line has a lot to do with those fables) give this game a try. I think you would enjoy it also.Read full review...

I love games like Rise of the Argonauts

What usually captivate me in games are the stories and role-playing elements. If a game has both then I'll looking into it. Rise of the Argonauts definitely portrays both very well through dialog choices that defines Jason(the character you play as), god power upgrades that you utilize in battle, and the awesome story that unravels many interesting things such as Greek myths.

If only the game had one more islands to explore, this game would of been complete for me. However, each island will last for 5 hours or a bit less depending on who is playing. I went through the islands looking for everything I could find and the experience was rewarding.

If you are into games like Gears of War, this title isn't for you since there is much more to focus on than just killing enemies. This game is for gamers who like substance in their games. That's not to say that you do get to enjoy killing hundreds of enemies in sweet 300 style slow-mo.Read full review...

Great Game= Mythbased, NOT myth perfect!

Okay, you knot heads that seem to think the game should follow the origianl myth perfect, dah! Its a GAME. If it followed the myth perfect there would be nNO surprizes, are you buying this for fum or a cultural anthropology lesson?? The game a damn fun and ya'll can stuff your complaints about it not following the original myth. Get a grip... on the controller. The game is a blast! Took long enough to finish, was a challenge and really darn fun. I liked it!Read full review...

Rise of the Argonauts

This game is good. It is just good, not great. It will immediately draw you in with the dialogue and the upgrade system for your character. It will let you down with the overall subpar graphics and the short story. The character models look really nice and detailed however the environments and the non-main characters look very last generation. If you are a sucker for mythology in a greek setting, get this game, but do not pay full price for it.Read full review...

Good game.

I was not sure of this game when I bought it but it turned out to be a fun game. For the amount I paid you can't go wrong.

What a sleeper hit,Fantastic for the price

I picked this game new for under 20 on ebay...its better than most 60 dollar games by far..The story is Awesome and the game play is solid....reviews complain that you have to wander around to much but not anymore than any other game..the graphics could be a little better..but it doesnt bother me if you rate games for graphics maybe you should just watch a blu ray...I love this game and im sure others would if they gave it a shot....TRY ITRead full review...

great rpg would recommend highly

this is a great rgp from the talent tree to the combat system the story seems a lil cut and paste but everything makes up for that fact if you have trouble figureing out how to get into the gods favor they have a place in the option menu to guide you to the right spot preaty much spelling it outRead full review...
