So I just finished watching 300, and now I feel like playing a game like it, only thing is, I don't know any, and I don't want to play an rts or some hack and slash game, my friend recommended dark messah. I don't really know what I want, I was thinking of something like a css with swords and stuff. Any suggestions?

Not wanting to play a hack and slash kinda kills your search right there since anything that is remotely like it falls into that category.

The only recent title, that is somewhat like CSS with swords, that I kow of is the game your friend already mentioned: Dark Messiah of Might & Magic. Other than that you really have to consider Hack & Slay or RTS games!

For PC- don't think so. The closest that you can get is God of War on PS2.

I'd imagine Spartan Total Warrior is quite like 300, what with the "Warrior" and "Spartan"

obviously that is for PC and is a hack and slash, but never mind.

Rome total war is the obvious one. Even if you are not an RTS fan it is good.

It would be nice to have a game structured similar to the CoD games, but instead of guns it involves ancient, barbaric warfare. It would break the trend where only RTS or hacknslash can have that type of action. The game would give you the sense of fighting along side a large army, without actually having to manage. And it would be more linear to give it that theatrical flare that the CoD games have. And of course it must be very bloody and gorey.

I've played Guild Wars. It's not at all what I was describing. That didn't involve huge armies; like every other fantasy rpg, it had a limited party size. And I was looking for something more historically authentic than fantasy.

I think I know what you mean. I'm not sure if there are any for PC, but PS2/Xbox has Dynasty Warrior and Xbox has Kingdom Under Fire. Dynasty Warrior is pure action, while Kingdom Under Fire has some elements of RTS. Both though aren't like the FPS that you mention since they are in third person mode.

You can manufacture instances like 300 in Dawn of War by using the right maps and armies. Check this out:

Thanks for the recommend! At least I got something out of this thread :P

Beautiful indeed. I played a map for WC3 called 300... but it wasn't really that good. As for the TC, like the example above, you can creat custom maps (or download maps that people created, on RTS games, specifically, those with heroes or commander units. Warcraft 3 has a nice map called DotA... but I think I'm deviating a bit your orignal request.

Wow.

Actually, that's gramatically correct if the rest of the post were to be fixed.

I'm not sure about games like 300 for the PC. You CAN get the game, "300" on the PSP, though.

There ya go.

I would recommend a game called "Mount and Blade". You can download mods that take place in the Greek/Roman era, and you can basically be a spartan and lead your own spartan army. Thats basically the closest you can get. Check it out at www.taleworlds.com

O_O fatshodan how did you do that? I've been trying to create scenarios like that but the AI tends to lose steam.
