    Battle of Asgard is a good game, but the conversion to PC is quite poor.

    Even years later the game still holds up well. It's a pretty, entertaining and at times challenging trip through dark forests and brutal fights. Still, it would have been nice if they had fixed the glaring sound issues.

    Four years is a long time. The once humdrum, but spectacular console slasher is now a humdrum, plain-looking PC game.

    Lacks the polish and panache to be a true champion, but Viking is still solid, no-thrills entertainment.

    Creative Assembly was searching for their own formula for a slasher but kinda got lost along the way. Viking can be fun but calling it a 'Nordic God of War' would be an exaggeration. [CD-Action 13/2012, p.50]

    Though this title is flawed, shallow, and often bland, it does have fun moments.

Si bien, el juego no puede considerarse obra maestra, ni aportar nuevos conceptos, si lleva bien a cabo un sistema de combate sólido y la posibilad de protagonizar inmensas battallas junto a centenares de aliados. No es un juego de Rol, es más bien solo acción y aventura con locaciones y personajes de la mitología nórdica que repito, me encanta. Recomendado para los fieles al género hack and slash y amantes de la mitología nórdica.… Expand

I loved it! The game is completely gamepad compatible, despite the fact that the store page makes no mention of it. The combat is very fluid, with some nice execution moves. Combine that with the beautiful graphics and open world, and you got a winner.

    Sure it's not as story rich or cinematic as I would have liked, but I still enjoyed myself, and had a decent time chopping my enemies in half.    … Expand
