New Shield-on-a-Rope in Teaser Trailer for Rygar: Battle of Argus

Here’s a new trailer for the upcoming Rygar: Battle of Argus. Like previous Rygar games, the main draw here is the Diskarmor, a shield on a chain that can be used to attack enemies or latch onto certain grapple points. You’ll play Rygar as you try to defend your home of Argus, which resembles ancient Greece, against hordes of monsters.

I’m kind of surprised they decided to make another Rygar game, since I didn’t really care for the last one on the PS2 so much. I suppose the Wii controls could make it interesting, but I can’t see this game doing anything that God of War hasn’t already done a hojillion times better.
