Though light on both RPG and action elements, Rise of the Argonauts has a strong story and excellent character design.
Pros:
• Beautiful character and creature models
• Variety of weapons
• Clever upgrade system
• Achievements based on dialogue choices
• Strong story
Cons:
• Nice looking but generally empty environments
• Stiff animation
• Not a game for people who dislike dialogue
You can pay what you want for Overlord, its Raising Hell DLC, Operation Flashpoint: Red River, Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising, and Rise of the Argonauts. Paying $6 or more gets you Overlord II, DiRT Showdown, and DiRT 3.
Letting an aggregate review score from sites like Metacritic become the sole dictator of your buying decisions is sure to make you miss out on a lot of fun, unique experiences.
With Valentine's Day weekend now upon us, what better way to honour all the love-laden gamers out there than to take a look back on the greatest romances found on the Xbox 360.
Love is both an incredible gift and a burdening beast. It is a joy that gives wonderful memories or a cruel mistress that demands incredible sacrifice. Love can make you feel like you have everything in the world or that you have nothing left to cherish. Although these five examples of love are different in almost every way, these couples portray the power of love better than the rest.
Enjoy !
"Beautiful character and creature models "
"Beautiful main character" > fixed.
Honestly, do not trust that review, do not even consider Rise Of The Argonauts may be somehow good.
The story is as predictable as possible, only the main character Jason benefits in a good modeling (all the others are just dirty crap), there are sh!tloads of framerate falls, aliasing, clipping, you have no depth of field, combat system is just lame and you finish the game in less than 7 hours.
Really, if there is a single thing of your entire life you should trust, it's to not buy that game.
(the only point where i agree is the clever link between dialogues and skill upgrade).
