ActionTrip has whipped up a hands-on preview of Conan. They seem fairly impressed although they note a few areas that need polishing. Here's a clip:
There's a real problem with being a gamer these days. We find ourselves in an age when mediocre console games based on successful movie and novel franchises dominate the industry. Although the idea seems hackneyed, it's nice to see an old fantasy franchise come back to life in a computer game. The development team at Cauldron with publisher TDK Mediactive have attempted to reinvigorate the comic-book based character of Conan, whose popularity rocketed into the annals of Hollywood cinema with John Milius' epic movie Conan the Barbarian, starring Arnold Schwarzenegger. Full-fledged fantasy worshippers already acquainted with R.E. Howard's inspirational Hyborean setting, are about to embark on a journey with their favorite character in Cauldron's third-person action adventure, Conan. We've spent the last couple of days fiddling around with the final build of the game (that was released in Europe) and are now prepared to give you the lowdown.
