    300: March To Glory is the latest unnecessary movie license game. Not completely bad, but why spend money on a monotone, unoriginal game when there are so many better ones out there? Read more

    • Bloody slashing action, Comic-style presentation
    • Monotone and boring, Epic?, Unimpressive visuals, Stealth

    Overall, I would say that this game is standard fare in the world of licensed games. With lackluster levels, imbalanced controls, and below-par graphics, 300:March to Glory does not seem to be a good representation of the subject matter upon which it was based. Even as I write this, early reviews are coming in that 300 is going to be one of the best movies so far this year. I wish I could say the same for the game. Read more

    If you were expecting a game that would be something to play on the bus while going to school, 300: March to Glory is OK. However, if you're a Frank Miller fan and you've waited months for the movie and game...you'll be disappointed. It's sad that 300, the movie is such a work of art and the PSP title does no justice to it, having a lot of flaws, glitches and bad AI. Read more

    When it comes to videogames based on films, many gamers realize that the transition between the two isn’t usually as successful as one might hope. While there have been some good movie-based games out there, generally the move is a little bumpy. One of the latest film-based videogames is 300: March to Glory , from Warner Bros, which is based on the film, 300 . So is the transition from film to game a successful one for this visually stunning film? Read more

    300 is a poor effort that has just about enough about it to entertain for the briefest of moments. Read more

    As a companion piece to the upcoming film, 300: March to Glory is a decent piece of work. It definitely feels rushed and off-kilter in a great number of spots, and there's very little replay value for its several-hour campaign once you've completed it. However, there's just barely enough brutal combat and style to the overall game to likely make it enjoyable for those who latch on to the movie. Read more

    • Appropriately gruff voice acting, Great soundtrack, Genuinely brutal-looking combat.
    • Combat system is clumsy and repetitive, Some needlessly frustrating sequences, Phalanx sequences feel like an afterthought, In-game graphics aren't much to look at.

    300: March to Glory is a poor action title based on a very entertaining movie. The developers really needed to spend a lot more time working on this game before release - like, maybe another year or two? Very average. Read more

    300: March to Glory has so much potential to be a smashing action game with spectacular graphics for a rewarding gaming experience. Instead, it feels like a rushed job, unable to live up to its promise. In the end, the game is nothing more than an average hack-and-slash game. Read more

    Interesting shortlived game for 300 fans, but a let down to the graphic novel and film. Read more

    • Interesting Graphical Cutscenes, Great Soundtrack.
    • Boring, Repetitive Gameplay. Offers no excitement at all.

  • How to kill Giant immortal

    Answered by Alpes 2009-09-04:

    Pull out your spear (it helps if it's upgraded to spike or higher) and attack him with your spear. When you enter the room, go to the left and get on the little platform where the statue is, he won’t get up, he will try and hurt you but can't, but you can hurt him. So, here’s the chance to attack him. When he charges he'll just hit the little wall. When the interact thing comes up with the statue, shove it on him, and just do that when he moves to different platforms. Eventually, he’ll die.
