Rise of the Argonauts - Interview @ GameSpot AU

by Dhruin, 2008-08-16 02:53:34

Ed de Castillo is the face of Argonauts, talking to GameSpot AU about the game's offer.  For me, the PR gets in the way of real answers:

GSUK: What sort of abilities will be bestowed on Jason by the four gods he can follow? Will it be viable to try to balance all four?

EDC: [There are] some really cool abilities that will be both passive (meaning that they always work) and active (meaning that the player has to turn them on); all mappable to the D pad on consoles. The powers are in line with the ethos of a given god, and they serve the greater narrative in some way. Sure, it'll be viable to try and balance all four if that's how you want to play--that will all depend on how the player wants to progress Jason. One example of a god power that Ares will bestow upon Jason is the Ares Armour. Once mapped to the D pad, Jason can call upon a shining metal suit of armour that will make Jason invulnerable to enemy attack for a period of time.

...and you can nab a new trailer about the Argo itself from Codemasters.
