Bringing new life to a classic theme, Maximo: Ghosts to Glory is a 3D action-adventure inspired by Capcom's memorable Ghosts 'n Goblins, which came to life on countless NES and arcade machines through the mid-80s. This 2001 release for the PS2 is designed with a similar blend of familiar fantasy storytelling and tongue-in-cheek humor. In this adventure, the player guides the title character, a brave knight armed with shield, sword, and a hunger for vengeance, through a three-dimensional medieval world full of dangerous creatures and lurking evil.
While Maximo was away crusading for justice, his seemingly faithful assistant Achille has unleashed destruction and despair across the once peaceful homeland. Four princesses have been captured and are being held in four towers across the land. Even worse, Maximo's own sweetie, the lovely Sophia, has been forced to marry to loathsome Achille. Matters are only made more difficult by the hordes of creepy monsters and relentless undead that now swarm across the countryside. It will take enduring bravery and finely honed skill for Maximo to defeat his former ally and set things right once more. ~ T.J. Deci, All Game Guide
