Bladestorm: The Hundred Years' War follows actual The Hundred Years' War between France and England. You play as a Mercenary for hire and are able to play the way that you want to play. You can fight for just one side or go where the best money is. This game has 40+ hours of just the main story line and it also provides "side quest" that you can do once you finish the main story line.

AWESOMEoutof10's Fraser Brown proposes that anachronisms in video games can be a good thing. From the anything in history goes attitude of the Civilization series, to the use of swords in modern settings. It's all part of games offering players freedom and the keys to the toy box.
But at the end of the day, the game simply wasn't received well enough for Tecmo Koei to feel the need for a sequel. It's a pity, because this kind of game is a niche that isn't really being filled right now.
I loved this game, but I only play it every so often, the combat can get rather boring very fast.
good, but not great. And by great, I don't meant to say that this was so under appreciated that it was great (only some deserve it).
an amazing game, just wish i had completed it, got to last battle and it broke. typical
WTF!? 9.3/10 for this!?? If this game deserves 9.3/10 then N3 should have been 15/10.
And as a PS3 game, 9.3/10 means Uncharted should get 240/10. I can't imagine any PS3 user going for this when Uncharted, R&C TOD and others are out, not to mention multi games like Assassins, COD4, Rock Band, GH3 and many others.
I download the demo version and man!!! What a fcuked up game it is!! it's shouldn't be on PS3!!!! What a loss....
