Shadow of Rome

Shadow of Rome - PS2

Shining in the Shadow

friends, romans, gamers, lend me your controllers for shadow of rome has been released after much anticipation since its e3 preview. capcom thrusts you into an all too real reincarnation of ancient rome amidst the assasination of caesar setting the backdrop for a gory adventure. using unique character switching, SOR enlists the brute centurion agrippa and the slimmer brainier octavianus to give a duality of fighting and stealth that enhances the level of gameplay. i think the stealth is a welcome respit to the constant carnage of agrippa's parts and it is reminiscent of metal gear solid at its finest. the grandeur of SOR is very cinematic graphically like the movie gladiator and i was impressed with the fluidity of the game and movement, similar to ominusha. overall a classic hack-n-slash with a deatly intense new twist with the only thumbs down being the emperors to signal your opponents murder.
