A well-rounded action title with elements of strategy, traditional hack and slash, and arcade action. Large scale battles and mythical creatures, theyre all here!...
Pretty graphics, smooth gameplay, large open world with great view distance, dragons!, intuitive and easy to get into thanks to the visual cues.
No multiplayer, some sound problems, not enough strategy for some.

You don’t judge your progress in Viking by high scores, percentage complete or rankings. You measure it in blisters - that old school badge of honour. The more pus you have swilling round beneath your swollen fingertips, the more pallid thick white ski...

Viking: Battle for Asgard doesn't sell itself all that well. The opening few minutes are packed with plenty of walking, talking and collecting, but not a whole lot of action - something pretty high on your list of expectations when you boot up an 18-ra...

Learning about the adventures and deeds of Vikings, such as Erik the Red or Leif Eriksson, was always the highlight of any world history class in school. After all, these were true stories about men who explored the unknown, conquered new lands, and of...
Combat can be amusing for a few hours, Portals make travelling easy.
After a few hours, the combat gets dull, Objectives and missions are repetitive, No payoff for exploration, Camera is horrendous, Audio is sparse and disappointing.
Thanks to Viking: Battle for Asgards mundane and tedious gameplay, the only battle youll wage will be a losing one against boredom...

Platfroms: Xbox 360, Playstation 3. Xbox version reviewed. There's no question in my mind that Viking: Battle for Asgard is the bloodiest hack-and-slash epic I've ever seen, making the horrifically brutal God of War look like The Chronicles of Narnia by...
Not quite the God of War/Spartan/Crackdown combo we might have hoped for, but still a fine hack-and-slash epic with impressive battles and a magnificent world to explore...

Wicked frame-rate issues during big battles; shallow combat for the lazy button-masher.
