I was extremely excited to play total Spartan warrior and ecstatic when I received it in the mail. However when checking the disk it came riddled with scratches. Still optimistic I tried playing but my Xbox wouldn’t load the game and just stayed on the screen above. Very disappointed for something I was anticipating. Read more

This game was so over hyped it even got a behind the scenes show on g4tv. Now I wanted 2 play this game cuz well, I being an xbox owner, wanted a good romp like god of war since I already finished ninja gaiden. This game leaves me feeling; like something is missing... it could have been so much more. Let me give u my reviews. Graphics 7/10:They focused on cramming a huge amount of enemies on screen at the same time which is cool sometimes but when u look at the cut scenes and bland areas. YUCK is this really xbox?. But it's not totally horrid. Sound 7.5/10: When I listen to the excellence god of war soundtrack and ninja gaiden's soundtrack I can't help but think the corny rock tracks playing here was jus tacked on. The weapon sounds are nice clangs and clashes. Then we get to the voice acting um no no this simply will not do. These have got 2 be the worse directed voice acting ever. Game play: Well as much as they hyped it 2 be it's just a basic hack and slasher, which is fine if u like that genre. The weapons in the game although are pretty cool... they jus don't seem 2 carry any real weight with them. I mean when I play the other top 2 action adventure games, ninja gaiden and god of war I really do feel like I'm causing bodily harm 2 folks. The action in Spartan jus feels real muted. The tons of enemies are cool...but when they all surround u alone and u can't find a power up it becomes frustrating. Control 5/10: The controls are adequate u got ur light slash and heavy. But The bow control is totally wack!! The camera is controlled by the right thumb stick which I personally don't like 2 much cuz it can become disorienting. The overall control feels like it's stuck between pc mouse control and console controller style... I don't like it that much. All in all if it seems like I keep bringing up Ninja Gaiden and God of War.... I must use them 2 compare, because those are now the measuring stick by which these games will all be compared, ESPECIALLY Ninja Gaiden. I understand they were trying the huge battles and what not...which I think is real cool. But it could have been better in other departments. Read more

If you are looking for a game that has minor thinking and problem solving involved yet a ton of blood then this is it! I played this game when I was younger and loved it, however I was in need of another copy to play it. This is a good game and the way its presented it gives across this sense of nostalgia, that one is entering the realm of legends and glorified heroes long gone. An excellent game for those who appreciate mythology and the history / tales of the ancient world. This game is NOT a source of history but uses it as a background to tell an excellent and exciting story. NOTE 1 of 2: this game requires the original Xbox, most Xbox games are backward compatible with the Xbox 360, however this came out in the early days of Xbox. NOTE 2 of 2: My Xbox 360 is NOT hooked up to the internet and so I am unaware if there are updates for the Xbox 360 to void the credibility of the first note. Read more

Thanks. Seems to work the way I remember. Read more
