Maybe it is just me, but I don't think it is that great
OK, let's be optimistic, the game have nice graphic, nice motion, nice frame rate, and good control which let you cut enemy into pieces in the way you like.
Apart from the killing, there's a sneak mode, which is hated by those who love the game because it is violent, as for me, I like collecting gold coin and buy furnitures, is that wrong?When I play the game, I do hate the Colosseum part, it is boring and some times hard, and it has nothing to do with the story, the story is forward in the sneak missions, and I am annoyed I have to fight and kill for half an hour before I can continue the story.
Maybe my ways are wrong, but I find that when in the Colosseum part, in the cooperation game, my team mates are stupid, as a result, I can't get a high enough score to get medal...anyway, who cares about the medals,I can't buy anything with that to fill my house...
I love Rome stories, and this game is a good one, but not as good as some violence lover said.(no offense, sometimes I am a violence lover as well, but I don't evaluate things in this way )
