Set in the timeless grandeur of Greek mythology, Clash of the Titans immerses players into the epic battle for dominance between the human race and the powerful gods Hades and Zeus. Through vast landscapes of swamps, mountains and the underworld, two modes of play let players embody Perseus’s adventure from the film, or take on original new bosses in fresh, dynamic adaptations of one of the greatest mythological stories ever told. This action-adventure game play arms players with an ever-changing arsenal of weapons and powers. Players can journey solo or team up with friends to complete quests as they encounter a roster of legendary villains including Medusa and the sea monster known as The Kraken...

Clash of the Titans is a video game designed to tie-in with the new movie. It'll probably not come as any great surprise that this is yet another rushed through production offering that misses out on greatness by a whisker.

This is yet another God of War clone - only nowhere near as impressive. Yes the graphics look sweet, the game play is fun (if a little repetitive) and the whole gaming experience is entertaining enough. It's just that it gets very old very quickly... and there's nothing here that you haven't seen before.

Alarm bells should start ringing when a game based on a major movie is released for under £30, but if you're a fan of the movie and need another God of War-esque offering to add to your collection then this worth renting for a few nights.
