Rygar: The Legendary Adventure

"Graphically, Rygar is phenomenal. 3D models of both the enemies and Rygar himself are packed with details."

"With a gorgeous setting, good plot and creative gameplay, Rygar made a good leap forward from 2D into the 3D realm. However, a few graphical and gameplay flaws, as well as its short duration, detract from the total overall experience, making it seem like more of an expansion pack than a full title. But if this is actually the first step in a new Rygar franchise, it’s a definite step in the right direction."

"Rygar: The Legendary Adventure seems like it's pretty far along, and there didn't appear to be any substantial problems in the demo version we saw. While it may not be a carbon copy of the style of gameplay found in the NES version of Rygar, the PlayStation 2 game will more than likely appeal to fans of the series with its little references to the older games and to anyone craving an incredibly detailed action game."

"Rygar is still a fun game with beautiful visuals and an excellent soundtrack, and fans of the genre should take the time to experience it."

"It mixed some good platform action with some basic physical puzzles and a hefty amount of combat action. No doubt, Tecmo's newest project is a beautiful testament to Rygar's lineage and a potential blockbuster of a game, replete with high quality production values, a mix of new-age cinematics and graphics, and revised old-school gameplay."
