A decent hack n slash

User Rating: 5 | Ryse: Son of Rome (Legendary Edition) XONE

Audio:
Outstanding voice acting with a fine sound track to support it.

Visuals:
Aside from a few minor bugs, The visuals look outstanding and truly showcase what the One is capable of graphics wise.

Game Play:
Your typical hack n slash game play. Nothing really original to it, Which is sort of disappointing. It gets old rather quickly.

Other:
The plot was good but it could have been better written. The game play is a lot of gory fun but it gets old after a couple of hours. Difficulty curve is a bit annoying to deal with. Filled with cheap deaths and due to awkward checkpoints, You will have to play catch up for a few minutes in order to get back to the point where you died. Multiplayer is boring and not worth playing.

Overall: 5/10
Ryse does have potential, I will stand by that. It just needs a few tweaks. Fixing or removing the multiplayer part of teh game, It's the worst part of the game. Add something original to the game play to make it their own instead of another clone. Despite the low score, It's still a game worth picking up if you can get it for cheap.
