Conan the action game, not the MMO, has actually moved up from its '08 release and will be hacking and slashing its way onto consoles Sept. 28. This should most definitely not be confused with the recently announced delay of the Conan MMO, which continues its state of everlasting development.
If you actually have no idea about this God of War-style Conan adventure, you can check out some of our previous coverage and we've placed the newest trailer we're aware of after the break. Admittedly this was a game that flew under the radar, but aren't you glad its not another delay announcement?
I don't understand why some people are hating. If a conan game was created by the team that brought you god of war then you will praise it. But what these guys have done is good enough and certainly the best conan game that's ever been made by a long shot.
Conan as a character is legendary and it's about time a developer made a good game out of this legend who was created long before Tolkien wrote the hobbit and lord of the rings. He's still one of the most fantastic fantasy heroes, the first of his kind and in a way if it wasn't for conan, we probably would not have had fantasy heroes the way they are today.
So all ye Conan fans keep the spirit alive! And by Crom's beard when we are all dead, we shall reunite in valhala drinking together and sharing tales of heroes and maidens!
I've actually played the game and can tell you that it's good. Maybe no classic, def no GOW but well worth a look. Got some good ideas in there, like being able to beat a boss and steal his weapon for the rest of the level and things like being able to pull arrows out of yourself when shot by the archers. not finished the game yet but so far a good game!
