Conan

There are some dumb yet highly entertaining flicks out there that somehow only appeal to guys. I’m talking about brainless stuff (AKA 'Guy Flicks') that has tons of wanton violence, crude humor, naked chicks, and barely any form of plot holding it together.

Well, developer Nihilistic Software’s latest offering falls perfectly in that category. It’s got dollops of over-the-top violence, cheesy humor, half-naked maidens in distress, a wafer-thin plot, and is heavily inspired by God of War, one of the most awesome action games ever.

So, yeah, it’s a win-win situation all the way.

The game starts off with Conan who's embarked on a treasure quest, but instead of amassing a fortune beyond his wildest dreams he awakens an ancient sorcerer who strips him of his armor and leaves him for dead.

But hey, this is no puny mortal; we’re talking about a 210-pound barbarian who doesn’t take too kindly to other people using his stuff. So Conan heads back into the thick of things to reclaim his lost armor, rid the world of evil, and make whoopee with all the pretty half-naked ladies like any self-respecting barbarian would.

As I mentioned earlier, the game’s heavily inspired by God of War and that aspect is reflected in nearly every facet of gameplay – be it control, combat, boss fights or platforming. Only it’s not as polished and perfect as Sony’s 800LB monster.

Conan is a hack-and-slash guy at heart, so you’ll constantly face wave after wave of enemies that can be disposed off with a plethora of weapons such as axes, swords, spears, and so on.
