Recommended it? No

Holy Repetitive Jumping Puzzles!!! I don?t know how a game that places you in the boots of a Viking warrior carving up enemies with huge battle axes while letting out massive war cries could NOT be fun, but believe me, Rune is not fun. When a game that boasts the brilliant graphics made available... Read full review »

Pros Hack and slash at its best!
Cons acrobatic manuvering required.
Recommended it? Yes

This is a review of RUNE, which is a third-person action-adventure game from Human Head and Gathering of Developers, based in the Age of Vikings and warriors. Very little is known about the Vikings, which were a group of nomadic tribes originating from northwestern Europe. Vikings were know for... Read full review »

Pros Graphics are nice looking. DID YOU KNOW IT USES THE UNREAL ENGINE!?!1one
Cons Boring, long, and frustrating. Nobody plays online either.
Recommended it? No

I will admit, I got this game for $2 at a "going out of business" sale at my local game store. And that is exactly how much this game is worth to me, $2.

Graphics:
The graphics look nice, and they will run on any system. This game uses the Unreal engine. I know this because the game... Read full review »

A shield, my trusty blade and a tankard of mead to go.

Pros Fast learning curve, action and graphics pull you into the story.
Cons Weak AI, hefty patch required (what game doesn't).
Recommended it? Yes

If you happen to be one of those newbie gamers who wants to get right into the action and mix it up this is the game for you. As Ragnar you will fight the dark minions of Loki and save your people from the gathering army of goblins, snowbeasts, dwarves and the undead.
The game will lead you... Read full review »

Pros Enthralling Storyline, amazingly fun multiplayer, great graphics
Cons Learning curve
Recommended it? Yes

From the moment I saw the ads for this game, I knew I had to have it. A keen interest in vikings and a growing sense of boredom with shooting things endlessly made this a perfectly timed game. Gone are the days of near invincibility where the player can take a hit from just about anything and still... Read full review »

If you enjoy first person shooters such as Quake or Unreal Tournament, and enjoy multiplayer gaming, this could be a great one for you.

Pros models, taunts, maps, weapons, some servers have humble players
Cons I can't buy it for myself! some steep requirements for net play
Recommended it? Yes

Like some other unfortunate gamers, I haven't had the chance to purchase the game, but was lucky enough to try it on a net game at a friend's house and LAN at school. I just thought it would be another shoot 'em up with only close range weapons (like the Crowbar MOD for Half-Life), but in fact, it... Read full review »
