Best Colosseum Road to Freedom - PlayStation 2 Deals

Customer Ratings:

I couldn't disagree more with the first two reviews. This is one of my favorite games. If you're looking for characters that look like they're on mega steroids and use superhuman weapons, this is not your game. If that's what you're looking for there are tons like that on the market. Aside from the censorship on extreme gore, the game has incredible depth and historical accuracy; especially the mock battles within the colosseum of rome. If you liked Gladitor, appreciate ancient history, and like a combo of hack and slash and strategy, this game is for you.

Colosseum WAS a great game in the Japanese version, you could fight many great battles and save up for very expensive but powerful armor. You could also hack the limbs of people including decapitaion.

All of this has gone now.

The American version has incredibly cheap armor and items ruining the point of saving up to get that high level armor or weapon. You cannot inflict limb severing damage even if you hit someones bare neck with a huge attack.

A dreadful shame that this game has been so literally butchered. Get the Japanese version if you can.

Colosseum is a game i picked up at blockbuster for 7 bucks. when i played it, i fell in love with the game,but noticed some flaws. it had great combat, good voilence effects, great weapon variety, but that is about it. you play as a glatiator who fights for his freedom. as you win fights, you become more popular and gain better living conditions. you need to train every other day and hone your abilities, then the next day,fight. the game is highly repetitive, but nevertheless, fun

Honest reviews on Colosseum Road to Freedom - PlayStation 2

I have to agree with the previous review in that this is a badly censored game, although it's still highly playable. You can take a few paths in the games and fight literally hundreds of battles, there is alot of different weapons and armour to collect, although it is really cheap, you can get mostly any weapon/armour on your second day.

I've never played the Japanese version but I imagine it would be much more satifying without the changes. Still worth playing though, but it does feel as if things have been changed when they shoud't have. Just my opinion.

This game on Amazon only got an average of 3 stars that is an insult to this terrific game. When I rented this game I thought it wouldn't be that great because the front and back cover did not really impress me, but after about 30 mins into the game I was totally addicted to it for about 2 weeks. Sure the game might be somewhat repetitive but what game isn't?
