Would you reccomend Shadow of Rome?

[bondey6678]

Hi, I checked it out on the internet and it sems Shadow of Rome is a pretty alright game but, would you reccomend it to somebody?
and by the way, No Polls yet??

[James Mitchell]

Polls are meh.

Shadow of Rome is a pretty awesome game. It runs on the same engine as Onimusha 4, so thats the basic way youll be playing. Interspersed between the awesome action sequences are somewhat dull and monotonous stealth sections. If you can handle the quick changes of pace, then I have no hesitation in recommending it.

Furthermore, this game is EXTREMELY gorey. Theres ALOT of blood, decapitations and all around pain to go around in Shadow of Rome, and its all pretty humourous too, to throw a club at someones shoulder and see it take off their whole arm.

Its definitely not for the light hearted.

Id give it a 7/10 all up.

[bondey6678]

Woah, I gotta get this.

[Chompman]

The stealth sequences can be a bit annoying, but the violence is ridiculously over the top and great fun. And on the plus side, the stealth sequences get you in the mood to do some serious violence to work off the frustration!
be warned though, this game is 18 for a reason, and that reason is extremely gory violence. Its not for little kids.

(and if the Daily Mail are reading, its not designed for little kids, its not marketed for little kids, its not distributed to little kids)

[bondey6678]

Hehheh ok then :p I aint a little kid anymore, im a big kid :) Oh and if the daily mail are reading.... you suck. That is all

by the way Chomp is it like Graphic violence or Onimusha... Cause i was like 8 when i Played Onimusha, wasnt much of a fan..

That is all

[James Mitchell]

Onimusha wasnt as violent, there wasnt as much blood sprays or decapitations in Onimusha. Furthermore, you cant use decapitated limbs to beat your opponents, while in Rome, you can. :d

[bondey6678]

this game, looks SO awesome

[Jarlino]

I liked the stealth scenes..<_<

Maybe because theres some part of my honor that felt bruised when I got beaten to a bloody pulp by dwarfs in a freezing arena.
Shadow of rome was definitely not a bad game, with a good story, although at times extremely predictable.
And its always a good laugh when the audience suddenly throws gigantic swords into the ring to award you for great scoring.


The historic parts are a great way to convince your History teacher that games can be bloody AND educational!
Fun times to be had by all. ^_^

[bondey6678]

Woot my friend went to pick it up for me
I will have it in like Ahem... 10 minutes :)

[T-Vairus]

Shadow of Rome is an awesome game. I play it after this game was released and the gameplay was very familiar from other Capcom games :lol:
Buy it definitely ;)

[bondey6678]

already did :P

[James Mitchell]

Have you played far into it? If so, what do you think of it so far?

Does Sextus remind you of Luis Sera from RE4? It was one of the comparisons I made early on =P

[bondey6678]

Im only one like level 3. Its where your Octavanius and you have to get into the Senate house, well Im already in the Senate house but I have to get into the evidence room somehow, well at least I think I do, but I dont know how to get in :P
But I think ive just realised a way so I must go and give it a shot

[xsamalusx]

Its a great game, and now you can buy it real cheap. Its a mix of investigation and beat em up. I think this game is a typical capcom lovers game.

[bondey6678]

Woo Im up to Gladiator round III for the games honouring Ceasar, but now I have to be Octavianianiunianius :P

by the way, my brother came in and told me that in real life


*****Possible Spoiler*******************************
That each head member of the Senate stabbed Ceasar once
*****Spoiler End***********************************



True???

[James Mitchell]

I heard that too. Apparently, it was more than 60 people, and a total of 23 stabbings! Intense. One of them was, the infamous, Brutus.

[bondey6678]

Hey, how do you get into the senate house when you have to find Cicero and tell him about Brutus how do you actually find him?
Help please

[gamegirlbex]

I got this game over a year ago. Anyone know if theres a sequal coming out?

[bondey6678]

Dam Im Octavianus again, this time I have to go into some weird a** place full of Germanian barbarians *Not Racial Statement*
I get pwned by those guys every time. Any help to where I have to go?
