We don’t have much longer to wait until Codemasters’ epic RPGRise of the Argonautsis finally released, and I’d venture to say they know we’re excited about it. I know I am — between the sight of some of the massive bosses I’ll be pitted up against and Codemasters’ talk of pushing RPGs to a new level, well, let’s just say they know what to say to get my attention.
We have more than just pretty new pictures to get us fired up, however. Codemasters has named the soundtrack composer, Tyler Bates, who also scored films likeHalloween, Dawn of the Dead, and300. When questioned about the jump from film to game scoring, Bates said“The mythical nature ofRise of the Argonautsencouraged me to go beyond TV and movies and compose the score for my first video game.”
Rise of the Argonautscomes out Sept 2008 for Xbox 360 and PS3. I can’t wait to spend some quality time with this one.
