As a consolre owner, I thouroughly enjoyed Shadow of Rome despite its historic and gameplay vapidity. For reference, that game tried to capture the Colloseum flavor, and all in all it was really cathartic. After playing that game, and seeing a snippet of arena gameplay, I'm positive I'll spend ridiculous amounts of time in the Arena. It sounds as if they really nailed the roar of the crowd (which is the most important thing to differentiate it from normal combat) and the roman-esque ampitheater pit.
