Rise of the Argonauts, Codemasters and Liquid Entertainment’s upcoming gladiatorial action-RPG, will be accompanied by a music score composed by Tyler Bates.
While this will be his first score composed for a game, his previous work entails numerous Hollywood films including ‘Doomsday’, ‘Dawn of the Dead’ and the epic blockbuster ‘300′. His “dramatic, sweeping music” will be sure to bring alive the action and submerge the player in the game’s setting of ancient Greece. Here’s what Tyler had to say about the composition:
“The mythical nature of Rise of the Argonauts encouraged me to go beyond TV and movies and compose the score for my first video game. Rise of the Argonauts is an epic game with some of the biggest Greek heroes like Jason, Hercules and Achilles, which inspired me to compose dramatic, sweeping music to create the proper setting for this exciting adventure.”

“Ugh Dude….You Have A Spear Coming Out Your Back..
“What of it….”
“Doesn’t That Hurt?”
Picture 2:
“I Have A Bowstring Through My Arm…Your Spear Has Nothing On Me!”

didnt know the name but i’ve seen the films and 300 in particular had a fantastic score.

If it’s anything like the 300 score it will be classically themed nu-metal. Yay. Woo. I can barely contain my excitement at the thought of all that aural pleasure.
Oh no, hang on, it’ll be pants. ‘Epic’ my arse.
