Shadow of Rome is a good , succesful enough mix of stealth and Fighting. The combat is fun and involving and the stealth elements are an enjoyable break to give you a good balance. The graphics in the game are quite beutiful but then again what do you expect coming from capcom. The gameplay can be quite involving but its easy enough to grasp. The sound is quite good although the voice acting couldve been possibly a bit better but then again its hard for a game to have truely beliveable voice acting. The game is quite immersive and the pit fights are quite realistic in some what of a sense. While the game isnt extremely long it will stay last you a good 20 hours which is usually the standard length of most action games. All in All Shadow of Rom is a solid enough game to shine out from the crowd. Definetly atleast worth a rental to see if you'll like it.
