When I saw the trailer for this game, I just knew I would be buying this game. It's gonna rock hard core. It has won 3 awards from its E3 2000 showing, including (but not limited to) 2 Best Action Game of Show. If you've ever had a taste for fantasy or of times when people duked it out in melee combat, then this game is probably for you!

Rune is the Best! I would give it 100 stars

Rune one a lot of awards at E3 and after seeing the trailer( if you havent see it) I was so excited I was jumping around in my room. This for a lot of people has to be the most anticipated game of the year. I think it will do almost as good as Halflife. The graphics are incredible. The game uses the Unreal engine, but it has been heavily modified. When you get so close to something it looks so real you could almost touch it. Ragnar, the main character, can carry 4 different classes of weapons. He can carry swords, throwing things, axes, and hammers. This is a game I'm for shore going to get. Even thought it doesnt come out till October 31. This game will rock, anybody who likes halflife or other slashing games, should buy this game, lots of action and of course adventure. Great Game !

GREAT GAME!!!!

Now, before we begin this review lets get this straight. If you have come into this game thinking that it is like Unreal/Unreal Tournament just because it was made on the unreal engine, you are totally wrong. Now that we have that out of the way in this game you start out as a viking warrior, who is taking revenge. Smooth gameplay and special things such as Rune Power make this game one that you will be playing until you beat it one or two times. Rune also allows multi-player capabilites to increase the carnage. The overhead view of the character is that of Metal Gear Solid or Tenchi (both playstation games, Metal Gear a PC game now). Get this game if you want a keeper Good luck!

total mayhem...

...and love every frame of it! *hack* *slash* *head rolls* hahaha, I might change my position about how games 'cause violence in our kiddies (not). That said, I don't think you should be buying this for your kiddo for Christmas... buy it for youself and be evil for once. Graphics: puuurty and violent. But that's not what you first notice, what you will notice is the music, one of the better musical scores in games in a long while. Some people complain about the first part of the game being to repetitive... I guess at times, but once you leave the hell's domain... oh yeah! And there is that mulitplayer part of it, where you can humiliate your friends by showing off your hand-held-head-rolling weapons!

This is what I've been waiting for ever since I started gaming. It makes my viking Blood boil! The animations are awesome, the enviroment couldn't be scarier, the graphics, the lights... what can I say? What an adventure! Pure Fun! Never had such a great time Hack'n'Slaying the evil forces of Midgard... Wish there were more Multiplayer maps but I'm sure there'll be an update soon. Congratulations to Human Head and GodGames! Love you for this.

Well, this game is fun for the first 2 minutes of play. The single player is just that, single player. You will get tired of it quick. The multiplayer is where this game couldbe great but they gave us just DM. Well any of you that play FPS gaes online alot know that just DM wont cut it. The programmers where to lazy or in to much of a hurry to work on more MP game modes and decided that eventually some mod makers would do all the work for them. Whatever they did, they shortchanged the buyers of this game. Enjoy.

I Love Rune, I am a diehard FPS guy but this awesome game was a welcome change from twitchy multiplayer action, chop and jump, its that simple.. well maybe not, there are great puzzles to test your wit and hordes or vicious creatures and warriors ready to test you combat skill. Buy this game, and you will not be dissapointed.

Come and listen to mah story 'bout a viking named Ragnar

What a great game! The gameplay is excellent, the graphics are nothing short of stunning and the controls are smooth as a baby's powdered and pampered behind. At the listed price, you are definitely getting more than your money's worth. Stop in and grab some mead and be careful of the flying chairs.

I have played about 1/3rd of the game so far, and haven't been let down yet. The graphics are truly awesome - sometimes I stop playing just to absorb the environment. What impresses me is how tight and responsive the controls for the combat are. There is no lag - when you swing your weapon, it moves perfectly and instantly. Combining jumping with attacking also yields some impressive results. Worth the money.
