Dark Messiah: Might and Magic Elements (Xbox 360) (Xbox 360 Games)

Can the old favourite on the PC still cut it?

Slaughtering monsters is always fun, extra content over the PC original

It might not be the best, but this brutal action-em-up will while away the hours a treat

Dark Messiah of Might and Magic: Elements for Xbox 360 Review - Dark Messiah of Might and Magic Elements has arrived on the Xbox 360 far too late, with recent releases leaving it looking and feeling a little too much like a budget release.

Like Puzzle Quest before it, Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes marries puzzle gameplay and role-playing elements with much success.

Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes is where it's at . I loved it on DS, and this HD version is even better. A deep, clever puzzle game mixes well with a beautiful role-playing adventure. This is a game to get lost in, providing hours and hours of single-...

As a public service announcement from gamers to would-be game developers, here is a little equation to help prevent the kind of mistakes made in Dark Messiah: First Person Perspective + Platforming x Time Limits = Terrible Gameplay. Do us all a...

The reliance on platforming badly mars the gameplay, which never fares well with a first-person view. To make matters worse, there are several points in the game where you are not only asked to leap around like Donkey Kong Jr. from rope to rope, but...

Consoles are for idiots.

Interesting level designs; Excellent combat system

that's utterly wasted.; Unbalanced classes; Unforgivably glitchy; 12 freakin' restarts

A port of the PC game, "Dark Messiah: Might and Magic - Elements" is an average first-person action/RPG (although it's mainly an action game), focusing on Sareth, the apprentice of Phenrig, who is sent out to retrieve the Skull of Shadows. As the game...

My personal take is that this game has received a bad wrap from most reviews. Dark Messiah is a fun game, but I personally won’t buy it until it comes down in price or I can get a used one for cheap. It’s not the kind of game that defines a system...

Did you know the Might and Magic franchise is over 20 years old? My introduction to the series came back in the late 80s, when a friend of mine bought me Might and Magic II for the PC. I played that game to death, though I don't believe I ever finished...

When the PC version of Dark Messiah of Might and Magic was released late in 2006, it had issues with both single- and multiplayer. Here we are a little over a year later, the Xbox 360 version doesn't fare much better. The combat system is still...

RPG fans have a few staple games which are almost always a must buy, one of these was the series Might and Magic for PC. It was a fun RPG series with a more traditional sense of gameplay but took a new path with Dark Messiah of Might and Magic. Far...

Fun combat ; Physics fun ; Dungeons are excellent ; Campy story ; Controller layout for quick selection is second nature

Voice overs are terrible ; Main character seems to float when he moves ; Bad graphics at times bring the game down

Multiplayer has also been included and honestly it felt like a poor Battlefield rip off and was boring, contrived and really lacking in any value. The multiplayer felt tacked on and it makes me wonder if multiplayer was dropped, how much better could...
