 Classic game, where's the sequel??? May 2, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I'm very impressed with the game, because if you looking for a hack and slash game with a lot of gore then this is the game for you. Even though I feel there should be other weapons you can get or maybe different body armor it's still a good game. I might be more than half way done with the game but so far its gets kind of boring on the side mission but the battles themselves are worth waiting for and get larger the further you get through the game. I will hopefully beat it soon and I am definitely hoping for a sequel of some type.
 Fun hack and slash with little substance May 2, 2008
The game is very short. Only 3 maps, which have several missions on each. I played the first two maps and got bored with the game. It is graphically beautiful and the combat is very fun and gory, but a bit repetitive. If you want some easy XBOX360 achievements, then I highly recommend it.
 Abominably stupid. April 17, 2008

This game is by far the most idiotic game I have played in recent years, though playing it is really a misnomer as you really have no control of anything, even you character movements. Everything in the game is pre-ordained by the programmers, even the buttons pressed to defeat certain enemies. What challenge it does offer is through the sheer numbers of opponents who are really little more than damage sponges.
 A little underrated.. April 9, 2008

This is not an oblivion type game dont go into this game with that approach.Its very different and takes much less time to master. A lot of people said this game was a little difficult. To me after you kill about 50 guys you have about played as hard as the game is going to get. The game is easy but not too easy but does present challenges at some points though. Enemies in groups of about 2-6 are really easy but if you go into a area with around 20 or so it will be a lot more challenging. The games quest ideas are good and a break from the ordinary. With that said this is a good game to buy if you like hack and slash type games are just beautiful amounts of gore. The game runs around 10-15 hours which is a little long for this game i think it would have been better if they would have kicked about 3 hours of useless gameplay out.

Fun Game ...But not perfect April 2, 2008

Viking was one of the games I'v been waiting for for a long time ... and it's finally available .. but I have to be honest I was disappointed by the game play at First ,as the game fight system is weak and Shallow compared to other big games (ninja gaiden) But the game really start to shine in the big HUGE battle at the end of each island .
Graphically the game is bellow the average .
This game is not just Hack n' Slash game but you have to do some quest and side quest before each battle ... There are 3 Huge islands waiting for you to explore .
If you like hack n' slash games you really have to Buy this game and even if you are not a fan of this genre you have to give it a try
