What to expect from Rise of the Argonauts

Published May 5, 2010
4 out of 5 starsScore: 80/100

Rise of the Argonauts is best described as a cross between God of War and Mass Effect.  There are some pretty decent fight scenes with some pretty awesome weapons that can be upgraded and powers that you can accumulate by allying yourself with various Gods.  But there is also a lot of dialogue and discussion required to make the game move forward.  In fact, most of your discussion choices are what grant you various alligances with the various God.
 
All in all, I've been enjoying the game quite a lot, but it's not a game you can sit down and run through in just a few hours.  The dialogue can sometimes be long-winded and drug out, but then again this is common for Greek Mythological and Philosocal based games.
