I miss the good ol' days. I really loved Golden Axe and if all they had of done was give a visual and audio upgrade I would have loved this just as much. Also, CO-OP was always a must for this game.

At least I got this game for free. It seems so similar to Conan (which was fun, except for the quick time event bosses and the guys with spiky shields) but the counter system is a pain in the ass. I'm not sure co-op would work in a 3rd person game like this, but it would have been a lot more fun with it than without.

You know I may buy this game one day when it is REALLY cheap.

I laughed at the second picture (in the review, not down the bottom) as she seems to hit him in the chest, but sparks fly at his feet. Doesn't make sense, but hey, this seems like one of those one night hire game where you go WOW! and then meh after one night

I really don't know why people are rating this game so low. It's a really fun little brawler in the "kill 5 guys and move on" spirit of the original. If you spot it on a bargain table for 50 bucks or less, pick it up.
I'd rate my own experience of it a 7 or 8 out of 10, with the only real downside the underwhelming bosses. 4.5 is just being mean.
