Let's run with the benefit of the doubt, though, and call that a lucky coincidence. We'll admit that it's pretty convenient for this game to be appearing just when a whole generation of historically challenged types has discovered that the word "Spartan" meant something before Halo was released. Now, you can call it a cash-in title if you like. That's just as well, because anyone who's still got a bit of an afterglow from their cinema expedition to see 300 is probably reading this review for the wrong reasons.Īncient Wars: Sparta isn't a game based on 300, and it draws no noticeable inspiration from Frank Miller's incredibly loose adaptation of the Battle of Thermopylae. Now, doesn't that feel better? You can now safely read the rest of this review without feeling overcome by the urge to shout like a mad beardy Scotsman with computer-generated pecs. Come on - "THIS IS SPARTAAAAA!" There you go. If you're in the privacy of your own home, it may help to stand up and shout. Okay, come on, get it out of your system.
