Alexander

[Dead Moroz]

Ubisoft announced the game "Alexander" (http://www.ubi.com/US/News/alexander_pc_2004-8-11.htm) based on forthcoming movie.


“Alexander is probably the greatest single military strategist of all time. Historical and ‘what if’ strategies are being scrupulously rendered by Ubisoft. One variation even has (Persian King) Darius emerging the victor over Alexander. Players will have serious possibilities for winning and losing empires. I’m looking forward to playing,” says Stone.

The RTS gameplay in Alexander promises to be challenging enough to entice the hard core gamer, but will also provide a gaming experience accessible to a larger audience of casual gamers. Players will experience the epic scope of Alexander’s conquests via historic campaigns, each with unique characteristics and resource management challenges, and featuring heroes from Alexander the Great’s era. Players will fight real-time battles using formations, combat and authentic military tactics, while commanding vast armies in foreign lands. Blood will be spilled on the battlefield and honor will be put to the test, as a combination of courage and strategy will determine the victor.

I'd buy it, if the year was 2000

Does look a bit 'retro' when you see what can be done with games like Rome ~:dizzy:

[Divine Wind]

The Graphics look horrible. How can you actually tell whos who in those melee screenshots? Not very impressive.

Eh... the game was thrown in just to maximise profits i beleive ~:p

But i might pick it up if the movie is pretty good and is historically accurate... ~:p

First shot looks to be the siege of Tyre.

Graphics a bit dated, but who knows, maybe the gameplay will make up for it. Probably hopes to capitalize on the new Alexander movie coming out on NOvember 5.
