Ryse : Son of Rome

[SUMIRE]

I pre-ordered it, looks like a blast to me.

Sometimes you just want a game you can switch your brain off after a ****e day at work and just have some good bloody hack and slash action!

If this sells more than TW101 I will officially murder some kittens.

If? It doesn't even need to ever be released to do that:

Ryse pre-orders to date in North America - 97,296
Lifetime sales of the TW101 in North America - 28,587 (69,922 globally)

(Source VGChartz.com)

To put that in perspective over the same period of time (10 weeks) Pikmin 3 sold 439,929 and NSMBU sold 1,467,653

This looks like the usually American-made drivel

It's german made drivel :P

Say what you want about the game but Crytek know how to make a gorgeous looking engine!

Personally, while I don't think this game will set the world alight I think it will be enjoyable. I think it will be a real show piece too.

It does indeed look really stunning, nice to see a video from areas of the game other than the town/city videos. i really do hope this turns out be be a better experiance than expected. Wonder when the first reviews will go live?

[capcom_suicide]

That us quite amazing! Certainly the best looking game shown so far. I really hope they make it fun to play!!

So basically we'd love you to play Ryse how you'd like to play it,for free, but we wont, we just want you to pay to play new stuff. Same old MS really.

[charlesr]

Yes, you a right. MS never give away anything for free. Except for a whole new track for Forza 5 last week. Oh and the whole of Forza 5 (or Fifa). And the Honda car pack. And two games a month that you get to keep (not rent).
