I rented Gladius by chance the first time I played it. The day I had to return it, I went and bought it.Gladius is first and foremost a strategy game, and the way it is put together — every type of fighter can best another type (sort of Rock Paper Scissors) — makes it challenging. The graphics, the settings, and the player depth are all wonderful. There is a great number of types of fighters, all of whose appearances and skills are customizeable. The game is very addictive, and most aspects of the game deserve thumbs up. Great game all-around.I would have liked to have seen more animation cut-scenes with more action (the character poses were always the same) and less text — not that I’m against reading, it just takes away from the game.I do suggest that if you purchase Gladius, you also get the strategy guide… unless this is only game you own. It will take quite a while to complete even with the strategy guide. Also, the strategy guide may clue you in on things you might have otherwise missed.
Not one scratch and my favorite game
Gladius is a turn-based tactical strategy game. That is, your gladiators and your enemies each take turns moving and attacking in a grid-based arena. Gladius is very deep and can be complex if one does not take the time to learn how to really play it. I had this game for a month before I really discovered how great a game this is. I would reccomend the strategy guide as well, to help you spend your gladiator’s earned Skill Points more effectively.There is so much customization and character development – it is great! The gold you earn from battles is spent on better Weapons, Shields, Armor, Helmets, and Accessories. The graphics are very good, and the "paper doll" representation of your character looks great as you try on all the different equipment. Just like in Japanese RPG’s, your character stats change colors, red or green, to indicate if the equipment will help or hinder your chance of success in the arena. You can also customize the color of your character’s hair, skin color, armor, and clothes. They also have four different styles of outfits you can choose from for each character – you can make all your gladiators the same color (i.e. team colors) or just make them all individually completely different. It’s really cool.As you earn more Experience, your Level or stats goes up – Hit Points(HP), Defense(DEF), Power(PWR), Damage(DAM), Accuracy(ACC), Initiative(INI), Constitution(CON), and Move Rate(MOV). As these abilities go up, the better your gladiator will p.
Greatest game most people have never heard of. Play this game.
I’ve had more trouble pulling myself away from this game than anything since Gauntlet Dark Legacy. It is really more of an RPG and a strategy game than a fighting game. You lead a gladiator school in a long series of battles throughout 4 different lands. The fascination comes from the endless possible combinations of gladiator types, weapon types, different skills and moves, and other factors such as terrain and strengths/weaknesses. One of the many great things about this game is that it’s good for a lot more hours of play than other games. Before starting this I was in the waning interest of a 4th complete run-through of Dungeons & Dragons Heroes, a good game that is way too short. I’ve spent more time on Gladius than in my 4 times through D&D, and I’m still only a little over halfway through!I thought it was fun that the lead character’s voice was done by Michael Rosenbaum, who plays Lex Luthor on the Smallville TV show. I didn’t recognize any other voices.There are a few minor flaws with Gladius. I’ll just summarize them, although none has decreased my enjoyment of the game very much. The comments from the characters during battles are limited to a small number of phrases such as “For the Glory of the School!” Those same comments are repeated over and over, which does get annoying. Fortunately there is an option that lets you turn off the voices. I thought the graphics were pretty good, but there are some flaws, such as the very wooden and fake facial expressi.
I liked the game and I miss it. I remember playing this as a kid.
gladius was the first rpg that i have ever played this is by far the best game ever everything about this game is good you play as valens or his sister ursula as you battle and many arena to become the top gladiator i give this game a perfect 5 out of 5 its the best
disc had a few more scratches on it then described actually froze during play and i had to restart. I remember playing this game when i was 15 such a fun game.
I rented this game on a whim and was completely surprised at how hooked I became on it. The game is basically a suped up pokemon game with different classes that do different damage against other classes, which have different powers. In this however you have a team that competes and it really helps equip them properly and use different characters in the varying fights. Sounded a little boring to me. After a few hours of game play though I really enjoy it. The main thing that I don’t’ like about this game is that when fighting large battles against two other teams of 4 or more. It takes FOREVER to get through everyone’s turn. I would definitely try this game out for a weekend. You’ll be surprised!
The disc works perfectly. I bought this because I wanted to play games with my wife and she struggles with timing. This turn based RPG can be a little confusing at first, but so far it has been a neat little adventure.

OK! I have waited long enough to sing the praises of what I consider to be one of the best console game I have ever played. What makes a great game great, you may ask. It is when you keep coming back to it month after month (long past its initial release date) even while continuing to acquire and play the myriad of games that are flooding the market. No matter what “hot” games I am playing (and truly enjoy) – like THE SUFFERING, RESIDENT EVIL OUTBREAK, MANHUNT, MAX PAYNE 2, HALO, FIGHT NIGHT 2004, FIREFIGHTER, THE SIMS – I keep coming back to GLADIUS. Maybe it is my fondness for gladiator movies of my youth. Maybe it is the sight of muscular, sweaty men in skimpy outfits. Maybe it is the mythological aspects. Or the fact that beautiful and sexy women could hold their own in combat. Or maybe it is something much more Freudian. All I know is that this is one of the most enjoyable games I have come across! And I cannot praise GLADIUS enough! A few of the reasons:* The turn based combat (where your careful acquistion of skills and weapons and gladiator placement can make the difference between victory and defeat)*The ability to enlist specific gladiator types to join your school and compete by your side to win fame and fortune*The chess-like strategy you employ to help win in the competitions*The ability to customize your warriors*The use of a “swing meter” to determine the power of your attacks*Good enemy AI*Good voice actingThe only negatives (and they are very minor): A gl.

After playing the 3 Level demo featured on the Official XBOX Magazine, this game shows some excellent promise for a genre in need of a massive infusion. I really enjoy turn based RPG’s and Gladius is blending that with some real-time elements that create a fresh sense of combat strategy. The player gets to pick a custom team of Gladiators with a mass of different abilities from weapons, to melee, to magic skills. As with any turn based RPG, strategy and planning is of the utmost importance which can take the brain power of a chess player to master.Hopefully, the final game will be well balanced to accomodate players who aren’t that skillful and still step up the challenge to give the most mindful player a run for their money. This game so far is fun, engrossing and could very well take many days of your life….

I remembered that I enjoyed this game a couple years ago so when I got my Xbox back I bought it and am enjoying it more than ever, Graphics are still pretty good, as well as the voice acting.

My favorite game for the original XBox. Arrived in great condition, though without the insert.Been playing it with the GF every few nights, it’s great fun, even if it does get fairly easy after the first few battles.

A bit repetitive, but this game has a unique control method called a swing meter (like golf games maybe?) Allows one to pit gladiators against each other in arenas or the overworld map. Really well made, but there a lot of fights and it seems that hack and slash beats range and magick so for me it became repetitive after 40 hours

I love this game. There is a clear ‘good guy’ ‘bad guy’ and you are on the side of the angels (or ‘gods’) fighting the good fight. There can be up to 4 players, each with their own controller. There is no split screen, you take turns playing and can support each other. There are weight classes, light fighters move faster and get more turns but do a lot less damage. Light fighters can beat heavy fighters, who can beat medium class, who can beat lights. Battle strategy is important, as is choice of weapons and defensive wear. I played this game years ago when the Xbox came out and wore out the disk. Game which require thought are superior to bash slash and smash….I just wish they would make it for the Xbox 360..
