Hands-On: Maximo: Ghosts to Glory

Capcom is conjuring up a past legend, and so far it looks and plays impressively.

The past is here to haunt us?literally. Capcom?s legendary Ghosts ?N Goblins is being resurrected into a 3D-action fest, complete with fast swordsmanship and plenty of undying fun. The preview version exhibited both of these traits in four levels of hair-raising action: Sword-wielding skeletons, creepy walking dead, and horrifying ghosts populated every turn. Even better, Maximo was a cinch to control; it felt like you were playing the original Ghosts ?N Goblins again. And there were a variety of special attacks, magic, and defensive postures you could perform.

As Maximo, you?ll have to save your kingdom from a nasty villain who has snatched your girlfriend and made your homeland into an evil sanctuary. Throughout your quest, you?ll need to collect money to buy upgraded weapons and armor in order to fight the glut of undead monsters that stand in your way.
