Shortly he is woken by a mysterious and ethereal voice, telling him of impending destiny where he will tasked with saving the princess, the day and the world. Just as he’s getting his congratulatory wreath, a devastating attack is made upon the ceremony by some monsters, who kill the guards, kidnap the princess (how original) and knock our muscle-bound hero into a vast chasm where even his massive anime inspired hairstyle cannot stop him from blacking out.Įven a big chopper like that will not deter our hero After a successful naval battle, Rygar (not his real name), a warrior with no family and no memory of his past, is about to be decorated for his efforts by Princess Harmonia (who looks a lot like Britney Spears). The events in Rygar are somewhat of a bastardisation of ancient Roman history and Greek mythology and from the outset are laughable. Having a coherent storyline was not always necessary back then, but times have changed and even the most uninspiring button bashing gameplay can be made better with a decent plot. Rygar began life as a side scrolling arcade game in the mid 1980’s, when games like Ghosts & Goblins and Castlevania were all the rage. Poor camera work, uninteresting combat and a half-baked attempt at incorporating the Wii motion controls mean Rygar falls way short of the standard. Developed by Team Tachyon and published by Tecmo, this is a repackaging of a game released in 2002 for the PS2, with very little to differentiate it from the original.Īlthough its original release was received well, the success of games such as Devil May Cry and God of War have raised the bar quite high. If you’re a Wii owner and looking for a cheap and easy action adventure game, then look no further than Rygar: The Battle of Argus.
