    Computer and Video Games has reviewed the FR: Demon Stone action RPG from Atari. The review is short and up to the point, which doesn't mean anything good for the game, for the final score is 58%. Here's a snip:

    25 Apr 05 It's been what? Sixteen years since Golden Axe was slipped neatly into the bedroom habits of gamers? And still games appear with the same template of hacking and slashing - this one even returning to the triumvirate of two men and a sexy woman (elf-thing) with super-attacks that can be unleashed after an appreciable amount of undead-battery.
    This is 2005 though, so the whole affair is drowned in combos, 3D shenanigans, stealth attacks, publisher-demanded LOTR stylings and even a statutory amount of bullet-time. Or 'throwing axe time' as it could be referred to...

    All this and it's a bit of fun too. It's a blimmin' port and it's highly advisable that you use a gamepad as you will forget some moves even exist if you use your keyboard. However, if you're a fan of the genre you certainly won't be disappointed, especially with the fight mechanics and environments.

    Read the rest at CVG.
