Re: Ryse: Son of Rome

I was thinking of trading in UFC for this because it reminds me of when the xbox 360 was new - remember condemned: criminal origins?

It's one of those things where developers get excited about a new console and think outside the box and make a new IP and in some cases new 'feel' for a game. That game was good/bad/hilarious/funky/nasty and crazy all in one - you kill freaked out junkies in a dirty project-style building in the dark and use 2x4's with nails in it to kills them! lol

Ryse looks like the team was excited about a new console and wanted to show it off and make something really intense that you won't forget (like condemned)

So in that sense, I may have just talked myself into buying it

Man I loved Condemned. The Department store level was the scariest level I've played in a game

Ryse: Son of Rome wins SIGGRAPH Award for Best Real-Time Graphics

Ryse: Son of Rome, Crytek’s exhilarating next-gen title, has earned itself a prestigious SIGGRAPH award for Best Real-Time Graphics.

Ryse was released last November for Xbox One, and has impressed players and press around the world with its groundbreaking visuals. During the game’s development there was a special emphasis on realistic characters and immersive story-telling; all of which helped to catch the eye of SIGGRAPH's judging panel and earn Ryse a top spot in their Computer Animation Festival awards.

SIGGRAPH is the leading annual festival on computer graphics and interactive techniques, and is running this year from 10 August, 2014 until 14 August, 2014 in the Vancouver Convention Center, Canada.

Wow! This game looks incredible. Hadn't read anything about it and just assumed it would be a decent launch game. It was fun to be blown away a little bit!

I really enjoyed this game and it looks amazing.

Re: Ryse: Son of Rome

Only on act 3 and I'm playing on centurian level as recommended...This game really is astonishing to look at imo...just wow! I would love to see what this game could be though with a sequel to shore up it's issues. I'd like to see the user punished more for being wrong on button response during executions by possibly getting countered by the a.i. and taking damage when the wrong button is hit. It seems as of now there is no real penalty for being wrong. More varied enemies in both looks and attacks along with more attack options for the user could open this game up even more. I have not touched the co-op gladiator arena yet. Not enough thus far to justify a $60 price at launch but at $19.99 which is the price I got it for it's a steal.

Would love to see a sequel and a few things ironed out. Yeah, I purchased after launch for about $35 bucks.

Refreshing this thread to Guage the consensus. I want this game and after binging on Spartacus I want to kill stuff. Lol

Re: Ryse: Son of Rome

All you have to do is read the thread, it's a good game, not a masterpiece but a good game. Graphically, very good. A bit repetitive, but it's like $19.99 now, right?

39.99 for legendary edition which is what I did. Is there anyone playing mulitplayer. Would love to get my "crixus" on and slay dudes

Re: Ryse: Son of Rome

I think Bestbuy has the Legendary version on sale for 24.99 this week. It is a great game IMO just no last appeal after you beat it.

Re: Ryse: Son of Rome

Still some of the best graphics on console. Definitely worth picking up for 25 bucks or less
