Viking: Battle for Asgard - A review that'll take you to Valhalla and back.

Deep down, everybody wants to wear a big helmet with horns, carry a giant mug of alcoholic beverage, burp loudly, abuse each other and then collapse at the end of the night into a big pile of beards and goats. Right?

Well, I'm not sure how much of that has been programmed into Viking: Battle for Asgard, but we sent Not_Matt across the seas to find out. He made it back (no small feat), and has gotten out his carving stone and a trusty axe, to scribe us a review, in ancient runes. Don't worry, we've translated it for you, because we're helpful.
Ah Vikings, the manliest men of them all. Pillaging villages, swigging mead, slaughtering all whom cross their path and squeezing in the odd spot of rape. It's all in a day's work for a Norseman.

Often overlooked for the likes of pirates and ninjas, Sega has finally released Viking: Battle for Asgard to fill a void left all but untouched since cult classic Rune arrived nearly a decade ago. Whilst it might be a few years into the future until Australian censors would allow a game including rape to set foot on our fine golden shores (perhaps when hell freezes over?), Viking has covered the more politically correct aspects of Viking warrior's life; namely the family friendly activities of decapitation and dismemberment.
