Game review links: Metacritic: 75/100
Game description: Travel back to the year 44 BC, to a Rome that suffers from political corruption, unruliness, and violence. Venture through ancient Rome with the help of Agrippa (a soldier whose father is accused of murder), Octavius (Agrippa's best friend), and Claudia (a female gladiator). The game automatically switches between Agrippa and Octavius so you can use each character's special skills to accomplish goals. You can also participate in gladiatorial events, such as chariot racing, tournament battles, and deadly duels.

Known Issues
FMV sound playback stuttering
- Status: Active
- Type: Severe
- Description: FMV playback has audio problems. It stutters every 1 or 2 seconds. Doesn't matter if in hardware or software mode.
- Workaround: Set the EE Cycle rate to stage 2. Doesn't affect the normal gameplay.
No post-processing effects
- Status: Active
- Type: Minor
- Description: Post-processing effects are missing in hardware mode. Because of this some far away objects tend to be fuzzy, blurry.
- Workaround: Software mode can render these. The Half-Pixel offset helps a little in hardware mode to ease the fuzziness.
