Die by the Sword

Description

Set in a fastasy setting, you're a sword swinging knight out to slay evil creatures and rescue your mate. The game is played from a cinematic over-the-shoulder view, and you are given full control over how your character moves and swings your sword. As opposed to the "StreetFighter" style of character controls, you have full freedom to move your sword as you wish, allowing an infinite number of sword and body movements.

A decidedly different third person fighting game.	Evan Kerr (10)
A typical fantasy action game with a plot older than gaming itself... and one of the most memorable and fun games I've ever played.	George Shannon (110)
Would be an excellent game for the Wii	kvn8907 (168)
Good first person RPG hack & slash journey	Robert Peters (2)

Trivia

Among Enric's taunts include "The other white meat!" after slaughtering an orc (a decidedly pig-like enemy), and "There can be only one!" after decapitating a foe (quoting "Highlander" where immortals could only be slain by cutting off their heads).
