Rise of the Argonauts

Quick review of the game since I just completed it. Overall a 7/10 for me. I'll take a look at the gameplay/combat, graphics, story and miscellaneous things. Gameplay/Combat: (8/10) Since it's a story driven game you will sometimes find yourself in cities going around talking to various people instead of just randomly bashing in the skull of everything you see. The dialogues are well done, whilst the actors look...

Rise of the Argonauts Review General Score : 7/10 Worth playing ? : Yes Replay value : Yes, but not for me. Be warned that I played the whole game using a gamepad, and I do not consider any other way to play such games if not with an xbox controller or game pad.

The name of this game should be:"Detective Jason and the Argonauts". In this game, you speak and investigate more than combat for the first some stages. When you reach the 2nd island, the game becomes more exciting with fighting almost everywhere. Your Argonauts are like The Avengers and you can bring 2 members to fight along side with you. One of the greatest game based on Greek Mythology. Give it a chance and be...
