What it lacks in polish it makes up for in diversity and brutality. This is one bloody game. [Jan 2008, p.58]
-
In this day and age, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that a game based on a movie fares poorly, but for a character who has survived since 700AD, he deserves better treatment than this.

You can blast through the game on the lower difficulty in less than day. You will notice the title says: Beowulf: The Game. That's to distinguish it from the ancient manuscript. I tend to think of it as a disclaimer, or quite possibly a warning.

50It's just run-of-the-mill game design. Bar the occasionally impressive combat, Beowulf doesn't have enough to make it stand out.
-
50Adding this one to your collection is nothing to be blowing one's golden trumpet over, except if your movie-to-games section is begging for attention. [Feb 2008, p.55]

50Even a merry band of adventurous thanes can't save this quest from ruin.

49Instead of spending $50 on Beowulf the game, read the poem instead; this game isn't epic, it's just epically tedious. [Feb 2008, p.74]
-
40Destined to line bargain bin bottoms. It has its hacking and slashing moments, but like so many movie-licensed titles, it reeks of a truncated production schedule and a too-heavy reliance on a story intended for another medium.
-
40Ubisoft Shanghai and Tiwak did a magnificent job of butchering the reimagining of a classic tale and providing plenty of disposable, derivative gameplay to go along with it.
-
34It's so lazily developed, so utterly devoid of creativity and verve, that it's not even worth giving half a chance. [Jan 2008, p.84]
-
21Stunningly terrible. [Jan 2008, p.72]
-
17It made me tear my own arm off. [Jan 2008, p.84]
