Video Game Reviews of Gladius
Customer Review: Addictive, extremely replayable, leaves you wanting MORE!
Summary: 5 Stars
I found this game as I was wading through a huge bin of used games at a local Gamestop. I had never heard about it before though I love Roleplaying games and anything having to do with swords and magic. Anyway - at first I wasn't sure if I would like the turn based play but I soon realized that it is extremely compelling. This game has now turned into my favorite game to play on my xbox and I am really hoping that Lucas Arts creates a sequel. I love all aspects of this game from the funny banter between Ursula/Urlan to the ability to equip and modify your gladiators. This game is never the same game twice mainly because there are infinite combinations of gladiators, skills, weapons and magic. My husband also likes the fact that we can jump into each other's game at anytime just by hitting "start" on the other controller. When you get to a certain point in the game you can do head to head competition and we love that also. Highly recommended for those who love games like Morrowind, Oblivion and Baldur's Gate. My only complaint is that I wish I had known about this game when it came out in 2003!
