    If you love RPGs, then this title is a must have for any PC gamer. With the right hardware, it offers better graphics than any game in its genre to date, with a really nice set of monsters that will sometimes scare you right off your mouse.

    A solid approach to the Diablo formula. The game gives you a lot of flexibility with regards to your character, it lets you play online if you want, and you can create your own maps and quests. Add to this a stellar presentation and it’s hard to fault the game.

    Due to some critical flaws in the multiplayer mode, Titan Quest winds up being a blast for you and your trusted friends for at least a couple weeks if not more, but it just won't go any further than that without Iron Lore doing some serious work on the online play.

    As addictive as the gameplay can become, the comprehensive (albeit complicated) modding software is sure to trigger compulsion in the more creative players.

    If you like a hack and slash game in the style of "Diablo," then you’ll definitely enjoy Titan Quest. If, on the other hand, you’re looking for a true role-playing experience in which bashing things with a sword, spear, axe, bow, or some other weapon isn’t the only way to achieve your goal, you’re probably better off playing "Oblivion" or waiting for "Neverwinter Nights II."

    Titan Quest fits the bill for a solid action RPG that gives you what you'd expect but nothing beyond it. It seems content enough to be big, and if you like Diablo-inspired games, you'll get what you'd expect from an isometric role-playing title based in ancient Greece.

    I can't give it as good a grade as I'd like to because of the installation issues, and it's not an original concept but it still manages to be a fun little game.

    I think that people need to give the whole "It's like Diablo" thing a rest for goodness sakes we all know that Diablo was a great game seriesI think that people need to give the whole "It's like Diablo" thing a rest for goodness sakes we all know that Diablo was a great game series and still will be with the release of Diablo 3 but to be honest I had more fun playing Titans Quest, for many reasons one being the fact that it has much better graphics, and yes I know Diablo is older but thats the idea people think new don't dwell on old stuff, Blizzard did not patent the over the head game play and THQ just did it better I think, and the being able to zoom in on the person was pretty new, and I bet money that Blizzard will use that idea in the new Diablo. I give this masterpiece a 10/10… Expand

Мир Титан Квеста залит солнцем, никакой мрачности, повсюду яркие краски. История ведет игрока через Древнюю Грецию, Египет и Восток, и каждая локация узнается безошибочно. Это разнообразие обуславливает и довольно обширный бестиарий - монстров подвезли огромное количество. Но самое интересное - это геймплей. Его фишкой является система прокачки. В игре нет классов как таковых, однако есть 8 школ, которые можно комбинировать друг с другом как угодно. Конечно, какие-то из комбинаций не будут отличаться эффективностью в соло-игре, однако стоит заметить, что игра поддерживает кооперативное прохождение, и уж там-то классы поддержки точно окажутся кстати.
    Отдельно стоит отметить музыку в игре. На мой взгляд, она удалась - за всю игру, на которую уйдет десятки часов, треки не успевают надоесть, зато даже умудряются перекочевать в плеер, ибо среди них есть воистину выдающиеся композиции.    … Expand

    I have the Golden edition but reviewing Titan Quest and Titan Quest: Immortal Throne separately because they are a little different. TheI have the Golden edition but reviewing Titan Quest and Titan Quest: Immortal Throne separately because they are a little different. The original Titan Quest is rather unpolished and lacks certain key features which seem only logical to include in an action-RPG. I would give the Original around 77/100 while the Immortal Throne (which tremendously expands and improves the games) deserves, in my opinion, a solid 85/100. If you have the Gold Edition play Immortal Throne! … Expand

Its great fun to start and try new characters, but the pace drops off and you find yourself slogging through fields of enemies. Lots of passive skills and the slowing pace really takes away from character skill development. A fun quick fix but there are better games in this genre.… Expand
