    This is one the most under appreciated games ever. Period.

    One thing I would like to say is that Galleon should have received more credit than it did. I have owned the game since it was released in 2004 in the US. I will keep this review as short as possible: Graphics: This g... Read Full Review

    Yes, the graphics are weak and the characters are creepy-looking. Yes, the combat is mushy. Yes, there are some swimming sequences that are frustrating as hell. Yes, there was a bug on one of the levels prevented me from... Read Full Review

    Promising ideas and intersting gameplay are let down by the poor control system and average graphics.

    Galleon iis good fun. At first. But after about the first 30 minutes of play, you soon begin to realise- perhaps not. I mean, you were having great fun, jumping onto the rocks and leaping 30 metres onto another platform,... Read Full Review

    Starts off promising, with some good ideas but buried within is some infuriating and downright awful gaming.

    I have a LOT of bad things to say about this game so naturally I'll start with the good. There's some nice big jumps and some ok exploration. Id even go so far as to say its worth renting so you can have a run about the ... Read Full Review

    Galleon, overall, trully succeeds in creating one of the most ambitious and underrated games on the market.

    Galleon was in development for a very long time and for just about every platform there was too. It is now finally hear on the Xbox and let me say it is great. You play as a swashbuckling sailor named Rhama, who can do a... Read Full Review

    It's been so long that you forgot the THINGS THAT DROVE YOU CRAZY about Tomb Raider Games. Impossible Leaps, Endless Searching and some of the worlds WORST CONTROLS. In Galleon, the Story is pretty good, but the CONTRO... Read Full Review

    This game was not one of my better buys. I was always nuts about swashbucklers. Errol Flynn. Tyrone Power. Robin Hood. Zorro. So Galleon sounded fun. It does have a decent story. You can even get past the archaic graphic... Read Full Review
