It was a PC game, probably 3-4 years old or more. Started off outside some kind of defense wall during medieval times protecting the inner city. I think you had a horse that you rode on... Immediately after getting inside the city was attacked by some huge monster, you had to run upstairs and ran in the attic overlooking the courtyard below, the monster attacking you all the time. I think you attacked the monster with some sort of ballistic weapon. I started the game but never finished it, but I remember I really liked the setting and everything. Can anyone help? Wink

Fuck the reviews, it was a fun game, the combat system rocked. The only downfall of the game was trying to play as a class but only finding gear in hidden areas that were near impossible to find.

It was too short, had a shitty story and some other problems, but combat was really fun and that alone made the game great.

Got myself a "demo copy" to test it out, but getting CTD straight after intro movies. Hmmm. Sometimes it's a pain to get these older games to work properly with Windows 7. Considering buying it on Steam, but lots of problems there too it seems. Crying or Very sad

I've reinstalled plenty of times. Might be something related to codecs

Possibly, but then I thought it wouldn't crash when I get to intro screen. I can see the videos fine. Get to see manu screen like 0.2 seconds...
