When I rent games I like to make sure I play them through till the end, get my moneys worth but golden axe I just couldnt do it. The game is bad I mean I really cant point out a single good thing about the game. Riding on big beasts should have been cool but even this was done badly. The graphics for nextgen console(or this gen now) are to laugh at and the game play is just plain boring. Do not waste your time with this game there are better games out there that are simple fantasy hack and slash(vikings is a good one).

First off, this game is a ONE PLAYER hack and slash. There'll be a cut scene, then you running and fighting between checkpoints to the next cut scene. Secondly, for a game called "Beast Rider" you don't really need them. They require you to pick one up to advance at certain points, but I spent a majority of my time on my feet. It should have been called, "Golden Axe: Dodge and Parry". There is a dodge and parry system and if you do not use it you will die, there is no way around it. The game itself also froze up during boss fights. Graphics, voice acting and storyline are solid. Game play for me was very boring and downright annoying at times. If Sega does throw money at a sequel hopefully they'll learn from these mistakes.
