I honestly really hope Ryse is good. I don't think I've ever played a good Roman game in first person.......or a good Roman game........or, uh....a Roman game at all. Hmm. Besides, who doesn't want games to be good?

Shadow of Rome by Capcom on PS2 was awesome. I'm not an RTS fan, so I've never played any of the Rome: Total War games.

The Lead as a General tag-line makes me think it will be kind of like an action-RTS kind of deal like Brutal Legend or something. Giving unit/squad voice commands seems like the only logical way to have this kind of game play with a controller and Kinect. That at leasts sounds better than what Ryse looked like before, i.e. Kinect Star Wars with a first person perspective and full on controller-less Kinect controls or that gladiator game that was in Sports Champions for the Move.

If it's Spartacus meets Braveheart but Dynasty Warriors with voice commands, it doesn't sound that bad so long as I can use my controller to use my sword and shield. I still won' at be convinced Kinect 2.0 actually works until there are product reviews.

So that is what happened to it. Should've stayed dead!

Hopefully they've improved the janky animations that thuway mentioned.

Do Civ 3, 4, and 5 count?

See a few quotes back.

Spartan: Total Warrior was a pretty good roman-stabbing sim.

Looks an awful lot like Dynasty Warriors.

Explain? Not sure this is how it works. If anything, it suggests that it has improved over the base idea.

According to the GameTrailers E3 schedule, the game is now called "Ryse: Son of Rome":

So it sounds like this might have chariot racing...

Could be epic if it's online.

I'm sure it's been answered and discussed many times but why is it called Ryse?

Crysis was spelt that way because of the spiritual Far Cry connection but I don't see where Ryse is coming from. Really hope this is good though, hopefully the chariot seem mentioned above is only a minor bit. Don't really want a bunch of Fable The Journey esqe stuff.

Supposedly the "y", in the company's name, and all theirs games, comes from the last name of the founders: Yerli.
