User Rating: 8.7 | Shadow of Rome PS2
At first, I hesitated ALOT to buy this game.Don't ask me where,how and why i bought the game,It just intrigued me to find what is it all about.The second i came back,i instantly got in my room (with some pepsi of course) And started "discovering" this epic-world of Rome,a city who lived in prosperity and glory for around six hundred years. Now,to the game,the game evolves arround the assassination of Cesar,a well respected and powerful emperror.You take control of two characters,each having special abilities and power.Aggripa, a warrior in the roman army (??),who obviously is for action adventure sequences in the the game,who is quite strong.And octavianus,a young lad,small enough to infiltrate certain places.Which means you will be using him for stealth. The story begins (truly begins) when aggripa's father is convicted as cesar's murderer.Now its time for you and your trust worthy aggripa and octavianus,to make sure that aggripa's father is a free man again,and convince the romans that he is not the murderer.And with the stealth of octavianus you will find out who is the real man ( or woman?) behind the assassination of cesar. The game in overall,is great, the controllers are easy to master,each character have his special abilites, from sword swinging,axe throwing,head smashing, to wissling and getting people from behind,and disguising,and even hiding items behind your back,by holding the R2 and L2 button.And in case someone blows your cover,you'll have the ability to hide almost anywhere,with octavianus that is! The game,is a must buy/have/play, it is actually must everything! So if you,like I, are hesitating to buy this game,take my advice, leave your pc,and plug your ps2 for preperations to play Shadow Of Rome,Its Worth IT!Its worth every penny of it.
