  • Abstract:  NameRyse: Son of RomeSummary:So far it looks good. It has incredibly high production values, lots of action, and surprisingly complex combat. It may not be God of War, but it'll certainly appeal to fans of that franchise.Games Info:Developer: Crytek; Publ...

  • Nicely animated, some variety in scenes and location, lovely visuals, some great executions, multiplayer is fun
  • Gameplay gets repetitive, lacks replayability, some slow loading times
  • Ryse: Son of Rome is a sumptuous hackathon through Ancient Rome in truly next-gen style. The visuals are impressive, as is the smoothness of the animation, especially once you get into those big fights and executions. It's a great game to be a spect...

  • Stunning eye candy, Strong writing and performances combine for a killer story, Reward-driven execution QTEs a fresh idea for combat
  • Simple hack-and-slash gameplay verges on tedious, Minimally difficult, even at the hardest setting, Unnecessary inclusion of microtransactions

  • Amazing art and audio, Interesting story, Unique multiplayer
  • Limited combat, Repetitive boss battles
  • Ryse has an entertaining story and sky-high production values. The gameplay that's there isn't bad – it just stops in its tracks before it gets anywhere near close to demanding. The multiplayer mode has some neat ideas, like a deadly, shifting Colosseum, ...

  • Abstract:  Ryse: Son of Rome is about going to beautiful places and repeatedly stabbing everyone you meet there. Developer Crytek's Roman tale looks magnificent, and its typical revenge story setup is handled with great care, but the combat doesn't always keep up wi...
