Critic Reviews
- Unfortunately, the gameplay comes across as messy and incomplete, the arrangement of hazards and threats from monsters is ineffective at best and boring at worst. Plot points and development is practically nonexistent, and the standard shooter mechanics just fall flat. Even the superior mouse and keyboard configuration can't overcome the technical issues.
Jeff Haynes · Dec 05, 2008 Reviewed on PCRead full review - Perhaps the most fascinating aspect of Legendary is that it prepares you for a sequel, which in this case is less of a tantalizing tease than it is a full-on threat. Memorably, the game's lead designer apologizes in one of the Xbox Live achievement descriptions for giving another achievement such a cheesy name. Unfortunately, a game as bad as this one calls for more than just one apology.
Kevin VanOrd · Nov 10, 2008 Reviewed on X360Read full review - While the gameplay found in Legendary is incredibly sloppy and repetitive, the game does get some things right. Boss battles such as the ones with the kraken and the junk golem are epic in scale and quite entertaining. Numerous scripted events add to the cinematic feel of the game and also serve to keep you alert at all times. However, neither of these things can make up for the game's fairly lame story, repetitive and annoying combat...
Adam Brown · Nov 04, 2008 Reviewed on PS3, X360Read full review - Legendary is the gaming equivalent of cheap supermarket own-brand beans, but instead of costing eleven pence it costs the same as a prime steak cooked by a top chef. It's a bad, bad game. One of the worst I've played on this generation of consoles, in fact. In that regard, at least, the title is surprisingly accurate.
Dan Whitehead · Oct 31, 2008 Reviewed on X360Read full review - Despite the ambitious name, Legendary fails to stand toe to toe with the big hitters in this month's review section. But don't completely strike it from your queue of games to pick up this winter.
Total Xbox · Oct 25, 2008 Reviewed on X360 - Legendary ha sido una de las grandes decepciones del año. Esperábamos mucho más de esta curiosa mezcla de mitología y acción en primera persona, pero el resultado se ha visto malogrado por una jugabilidad del todo insuficiente y muy poco trabajada. El multijugador podría haber salvado los muebles de su mediocre campaña, pero sólo hay un modo de juego, y no hay nadie con quien jugarlo.
Álvaro Castellano · Dec 15, 2008 Reviewed on PC, PS3, X360Read full review - Si no puedes vivir sin tu ración de FPS y no tienes nada más que echarte a la boca, jugar a Legendary puede ser un pasatiempo anodino mientras otras y mejores cosas llegan, pero es algo demasiado mediocre y falto de atractivo como para recomendar particularmente su adquisición fuera de casos extremos. Algunos momentos de genuino impacto visual Las criaturas están bien planteadas
Francisco Alberto Serrano Acosta · Oct 27, 2008 Reviewed on PS3Read full review - Der Weltuntergang, den Legendary hier mit reichlich Tamtam auf den Bildschirm zaubert, macht mir einen Heidenspaß. Selten hat mich ein Shooter so auf Trab gehalten wie dieser dynamische Kampf gegen die abwechslungsreich in Szene gesetzten Monster. Schade, dass die arg gradlinige Hatz nach rund acht Stunden bereits vorüber ist.
Christian Fritz Schneider · Nov 24, 2008 Reviewed on PCRead full review - Legendary aurait pu sortir du lot si le background d'origine avait été correctement utilisé. Malheureusement il n'en est rien et hormis quelques affrontements sortant des sentiers battus, la progression dirigiste et la faible durée auront tôt fait de réduire le soft de Spark au rang de petit FPS assez quelconque.

Legendary tells the story of Charles Deckard, an art thief who is duped into stealing Pandora's Box. When he opens the box, he releases hordes of beasts thought to be fictional -- werewolves and gryphons and all means of beast and demon -- into an unprepared modern world. A full scale war between man and myth begins, and it is quickly complicated by the actions of powerful secret societies. As the person responsible for releasing this terror, Deckard's unwittingly become the only person capable of containing it once more and saving civilization from being destroyed by the terrifying creatures of the box.
