Powered by the Unreal 3 engine, Hunted: The Demon’s Forge is a fresh take on the classic fantasy game that delivers the intensity and action of a modern-day shooter. Taking control of either E’lara, a ranged weapon expert, or Caddoc, a master swordsman, you and your partner will descend into a dark and foreboding world for an unforgettable cooperative experience. As you travel deep within the world of Kala Moor, you will use a variety of deadly weapons, powerful spells, and cover tactics to face down wave after wave of vicious enemies.

2.0 out of 5 stars
I normally heed reviews on Amazon and avoid games with consistently bad reviews. However, being partial to dark fantasy material I decided to give it a go. Given that Hunted was released early June and is already reduced to £[] should have spoken volumes really.
This game is very poor, here's why:
Graphics - poor with murky, bland and dull environments. 4 or 5 years behind the times graphically.
Controls - Clunky to the point of being annoying.
Hit detection - seems out, meaning shots fired don't necessarily connect with enemies.
Story - non engaging and mediocre
If you like dark fantasy hack & slash games, and haven't already played Dante's Inferno (Xbox 360) I would recommend you purchase it instead, Dante's Inferno is infinitely superior in every way to this mediocre game.

4.0 out of 5 stars
This game has had a pasting in the reviews so far, and after reading them just after buying the game i was worried i had got a crappy game ahead of me. BUT I WAS WRONG. Swords and sorcery games often get bad reviews before they have even being played
best of all.....A lenghy game in this day and age!! who would think such a thing. You can play call of duty 3 times or play this.
Gameplay (golden axe without a dwarf)
The gameplay is pretty fun especailly with another person, The gameplay mixes between gears of war type shootouts with cover and close up sword play. The two mixes well and me and my brother have had hours of fun of keeping each other alive. Usualy i would kill people with the bow while he kept anybody i missed from getting to me or he would go all Leroy Jenkins and run in while i coverd him from a distance. The gameplay changes from combat to tomb raider style puzzel solving and exploration, these areas are usualy optional and can be easily missed so keep an eye out. The sword combat is nothing new but its not bad, the usual light and heavy attack with blocking. ALthough a hell of alot better than fables boring combat system. There is also 6 magic powers for each character that are upgradable.
graphics (4.5 ign?? what the hell)
The graphics arnt amazing, but they are good, i have seen ALOT worse. The enviroments are a little dark when in caves and dungouns but they are dark places so it makes sence. The character models are pretty good especailly for the two playable characters, they get blood splatterd on them during fights, black vains appear for a while if you drink this potion type stuff that makes you stronger.
Story / Characters
The story isnt anything specail but its enough to keep you intrested, i wont spoil anything but fans of sword and sorcery will be happy, if swords and sorcery isnt your thing this proboly wont be the game for you. The Two main charaters are very good and the voice acting is superb, whitty banter is constant and fun between the two and makes the game alot of fun to play. The usual over the top knockers and small outfits for the female characters will please the strange people that seem to enjoy nudity in games. The enermys are nicely thought out and pretty freaky if not a bit predictable (basicly orc like)but they start to mutate into spider like creatures during the second chapter.
Overall
this game is a little dated, has a few minor bugs. its very golden axe but if thats your thing you will have a great time, especailly if you bring a friend along for the ride. The reviews that give it low scores seem to be people who have played it alone.

Fun:
2.0 out of 5 stars
The game was well put together; interesting storyline from the offset but still a button masher of a game. Not enough RPG to satisfy that aspect of the gameplay and a 'business as usual' approach to the combat mechanics. I've come to the conclusion that third-person sword and sorcery games are not my thing.
I have given some thought at how the melee mechanics can be improved but I strongly suspect that the market for these games love the button mashing hack and slash mechanics.
Anyway if button mashing hack and slash is what you are after then not a bad game. I have seen much worse. What I would dearly like to see is some one to come up with the light-wieght RPG approach of Mass Effect with its emphasis on character personalisation and character interaction and mix it with something like Operation Flashpoint's approach to real world physics and gameplay mechanics. But that is not going to happen - I suspect that there is simply not the market for it.

Good game for cooperative mode with a friend (or girlfriend).
Goog game at a good price, it's the classic "kill enemies and go ahead" game, no RPG elements, but enjoyable, specially with a friend, online or in the same console.
