"Splicing history with Hollywood, Troy is an exciting new take on the Total War formula. Sega&s;s immense strategy series continues to snowball, absorbing and shedding new ideas, somehow keeping momentum despite that core gameplay remaining virtually untouched."

"Vast, beautiful, and every bit as epic as its subject matter, Troy&s;s designation as a &s;Saga&s; doesn&s;t reflect a brief spin-off, but a soaring remix of the Iliad, with just the occasional annoyance or backwards step."
