Summary: From the co-creator of Age of Empires, Brian Sullivan, comes an all-new action role-playing game set in the mythical worlds of ancient Greece and Egypt. The Titans, gods before the gods, have escaped from their eternal prison to wreak havoc on the world. In this titanic struggle between old and new gods it is the heroes of humankind who will ultimately determine the fate of all existence. The player quests throughout the ancient world in a race to uncover the secrets needed to once again imprison these ancient gods. Journeying to fabled locations such as the Parthenon, the maze at Knossos, the Great Pyramids, and the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, the player will have to overcome terrifying monsters and mythical beasts. A flexible class system allows almost limitless ways for the player to develop their character. Skills can be customized in many ways, and never become obsolete. [THQ]… Expand

One particularly frustrating aspect of the game is the inventory management system.

The best of the "left-click action-RPGs." An improvement over Diablo 2 in nearly every way, and still deeper and more satisfying than even newer games like Torchlight. Its faults lie in the fact that Iron Lore didn't innovate and offer more complex, interesting gameplay. You hit one or two skills, and your Drink Potion button, for 99% of the game, no matter the difficulty level. Still, if you want a traditional left-click ARPG, Titan Quest scratches the itch like no other.… Expand

It is pretty? I dont understand what people see in this game. Maybe you're too young to remember diablo- an original. This stuff is so derivative it's disgusting. Your character appearance doesn't even change, regardless of your class. This game has no 'character.' If you want to have some mindless hack and slash, upgrade your character, etc, there are so many alternatives. Try Guild Wars.… Expand

When I first played this game, I loved it. It was simple, addictive, fun, and mindless. However, the gameplay NEVER changes, eventually the addictive feeling leaves, and you realize that you're aimlessly trekking across the world for no good reason except to left-click things some more. I always finish a game that I start, but the last 5 hours or so of this was just miserable. The online may be fun, but it's not my sort of thing. I went back and played Diablo 1 after this game and had a lot more fun with it.… Expand
