Pros Storyline, uncensored violence, fun factor
Cons No thinking skill necessary at all, very short game
Recommended it? Yes

Woah! Sword of the Berserk: Guts' Rage is one fun game! Three words to describe it are killing, bloody, and fun. That may sound a wee bit sadistic, but trust me, playing this game will result in time well spent.

When I first heard of this game, I was very interested in it. Rarely now days... Read full review »

Pros Fast and violent gameplay, awesome sound, great graphics, there?s a story
Cons too short, a couple control issues
Recommended it? Yes

Intro:

I've been meaning to buy Sword of Beserk: Guts' Rage for quite some time. It wasn't until a couple weeks ago that I actually bought the game. So why did I wait so long? When it was first released it was priced at $49.99. At the time I didn't know much about the game. The reviews of... Read full review »

Pros Great game play and a well executed story.
Cons Doesn't really require thinking, if you are into that.
Recommended it? Yes

Ever wonder why the fighting genre in video games is ruled by the Japanese? If you ask me, its because they know how to stage a theoretical fight. Take Soul Calibur for example -- the way they have filmed the individual fighters doing their kata looks more or less like a 3D cartoon version of an... Read full review »

Recommended it? Yes

Looks like Yuke's got itself a decent game designer, and it's about damn time. A lot their games had phenomenal concepts in gameplay and control but huge, huge lapses in thought happened during the design process and the games did horrible.

Case in point: Evil Zone for the PSX, published... Read full review »

Sword of the Berserk are a really good game, the storyline and movies are excellent.

The graphics are amazing, the voices are really well chosen and the musical score is ambient. The play control of the game are two thumbs down! It is mindless to control a character and hardly do a... Read full review »

Pros Blood & Guts, The Story.
Cons A little short in gameplay
Recommended it? Yes

This game is violent. No bones about it, the game was meant to glorify the violence factor. Parents should use caution in buying this game for their children.

This game is a throwback to such classic games like "Golden Axe", "Double Dragon" or "Altered Beast". Readers to young or not... Read full review »

Pros challenging game for pros and novices alike
Cons hard to use controls and really bad camera angles
Recommended it? Yes

"Sword of the Berserk " Guts' Rage made by Eidos for the Sega Dreamcast, is really a fun game, but I am not so sure that the fun factor can make up for the frustration of bad camera angles in game play, and a story line with more holes than swiss cheese.

The game begins with Guts (your... Read full review »

Recommended it? Yes

Sword of the Bezerk is a Golden Axe clone, and a fun one at that. You play as the appropriately named Guts, a mercenary wandering the Middle-Aged land, searching for something to restore his wife Casca to sanity. Along the way, he comes across a town predjudiced against the half-human creatures... Read full review »

Pros good graphics, enemy AI, mindless violence done right
Cons long cinemas, too short, minor control problems
Recommended it? Yes

Sword of The Berserk, a mindless hack and slash title from Eidos manages to bring some fun onto a platform which strongly needs a decent mindless beat em up. Eidos has managed to be semi successful where several other companies has failed, but the question has to be asked on such an advanced system... Read full review »

Pros Violent and unsettling images!
Cons short, low replay
Recommended it? Yes

Upon starting Sword of the Berserk you are greeted with a disclaimer which says "this game contains violent and unsettling images, discretion is advised." Wow. Neat. Violent and unsettling images are all well and good, but is the game fun to play? Thankfully, it's not bad at all.

Sword of the Berserk: Guts' Rage

Sword of the Berserk: Guts' Rage is an action game with phenomenally good graphics but overly simplistic gameplay. You fill the shoes of the main character, Guts, and spend most of your time smiting foes with his seven-foot monster of a sword, Dragon Slayer. Some levels provide the best hack-and-slash gaming to be found anywhere, but usually Sword of the Berserk is more cheap than challenging. We certainly felt rage when boulders began falling on Guts's head at random during one level and the designers took great pains to populate most of the levels with dozens of tiny ankle-biting enemies that are nigh impossible to hit. Unfortunately the lack of combat moves, weapon upgrades, or anything else that could have spiced up gameplay makes Sword of the Berserk far more tedious than it should be for gamers. What really distinguishes this game from other gore games is the eloquent integration of storyline- enhancing cut-scenes that are gorgeously rendered with the game engine. There is over an hour of noninteractive story line to sit through--so many scenes that this almost qualifies as an interactive movie. If mindless combat and a compelling story sound appealing, Sword of the Berserk is what you've been waiting for. Parents should note that this game is particularly violent, and may not be suited for young children. --T. Byrl Baker Pros: Beautiful graphics Gory, visceral combat Outstanding production values Cons: Repetitive gameplay Level design sometimes cheap
