A great game with lots of Parodies!
User Rating: 9.4 | Asterix & Obelix XXL 2 - Mission: Las Vegum PS2
Asterix and obelix XXL2: Mission Las Vegum is a classic game. The story goes like this: The local Druid Getafix has betrayed other druids and has sworn loyalty to Caesar. But whilst this goes on, a roman traitor, called Sam Shieffer (Bearing a somewhat uncanny resemblance to Sam Fisher from the Splinter Cell Series) overhears this. The next day, he tells Asterix and Obelix this, and of course they dont beleive this. Sam Shieffer then tells them that Getafix is in the roman city of "Las Vegum" (again, a riff on Las Vegas) a city for games. So Asterix and Obelix journey there, encountering PLENTY of familiar faces on the way, like warriors who look like sonic, mario and a soldier with a PAC MAN SHIELD! its always good fun to look out for cameos and appearences ( i'll give you something to look out for Sly Cooper fans, there is a wagon, with Sly's logo on it, loot in the back and SLYS CANE ON IT! look out for a warrior who looks like sly in the form of a statue in little Venitia!) anyway.
The Graphics are extremely good, and the Locations CLASSIC. (always good to go to little Lutetia, which is a Paris but a very earlier edition) And the gameplay is good, but the overall Bashing enemies can get a little repetitive. The Sound is good and it is DEFINETLY something of value, if you can recognise the familiar faces. Overall 9.4 superb!
