My first impression was: "I will need to buy an X-Box One only to play this game" but luckily Microsotf decided to launch it for PC as well, so when I saw it on Steam I just bought it.
Having the chance to fight as a roman soldier from the Roman Empire time, was awesome enough to get me hooked.
I gave it a try and it was a really exciting game, tossing you right into the action since the beginning; it started to tell a story full of Rome richness history and great graphics. The controls were a bit scary at first since you have to learn on the go, but 15 minutes later, you feel like you've mastered it. I'm not gonna lie, sometimes you get the feeling the gameplay turns a little bit repetitive, but as you progress, you forget about it because the great story, graphics, sound, gameplay that really immerses you into this great game.
It took me a decent amount of time to finish the game, and of course, it has a Gladiator (the movie) feeling about it which is great!
In the end, it is a really fun game to play, with some reminiscence of God of War if you will and some other ingredients that makes this game one of the greatest games ever and certainly one you must play!
