345 Games has announced that Deadliest Warrior: Ancient Combat will be hitting North American retail on the 17th April.
The game is a bundle of the two digital distributed games Deadliest Warrior: The Game and Deadliest Warrior: Legends, and includes all of the downloadable content as well as an exclusive new level, 30 new weapons and exclusive TV show content, including never-before-released episodes from all three seasons.
Zach Murphy writes: 'The Deadliest Warrior TV series was fantastic television between 2009 and 2011. The series pitted warriors from a variety of eras against each other in an in-depth simulated battle.'.
Neocrisis: Ever thought of who would win in a fight if a Nordic viking was going against a Napoleon solider? or a Ninja vs a sword swinging samurai? Well wonder no more as Deadliest Warrior: Ancient Combat provides the answers (or at least tries to).
I played the first Deadliest Warrior game once. I was a Samurai and my friend was a Spartan. Match starts. He pushes circle. His Spartan chucks a spear at me and it magically hits me in the head, killing me instantly.
He then told me that it's random if the spear is going to go towards my head or not. So by chance, he killed me with a push of a button.
Screw this game.
That screen shot alone has turd written all over it. What you mentioned is the same reason I quit watching the show.
Their statistical stuff is cool in the show but when they show the cornball fight at the end and the fight is always won do to some total fluke it really makes a joke out of their decent statistical data. What you described summarizes the show perfectly.
Examiner:
Gamers can have a pretty easy time being very selective with their games. When you study reviews, play demos and generally pay attention to trends you can easily avoid some of the worst games that come out. We always pay attention to what games score and sell the highest, but what about the games that (critically) perform the worst? We dove into the deep zone and managed to dig up the five worst scoring games of 2012… So far.
