    An absolute blast to play, especially with friends online or off. If you love action RPG's then I can't imagine you'd find a better one than this.

    It's quite possible that Champions: Return to Arms is the best hack and slash game ever created. Unfortunately it has been built atop the foundation of "Champions of Norrath." So much so that fans of that game may feel somewhat betrayed that Return to Arms is so similar.

    An entertaining little dungeon-romp, if you aren't a wizened Snowblind gamer.
