    We are currently in development with our new up and coming 2D action platformer where your character is a Spartan Warrior, capable of battling an onslaught of foes and given the opportunity to upgrade your weaponry and armor. (Although it has to do with Sparta, it is NOTHING like 'Hero of Sparta.')

    We aren't going to release any more details until next week, but let me get to the point.

    The project is named only as "iSpartan Project." That is not the name we want to launch with, so we decided we wanted to hear some suggestions from our "audience" here at Touch Arcade. Feel free to post a suitable name for our game given the introductory description.

    NOTE: If you feel like being immature, then feel free to post into another thread.

    Here are some ideas we have:
    Legends of Sparta
    Spartan Legends
    The Spartan
    Sparta: Lords of War
    For Sparta

    Not "Legends of Sparta", that will probably raise speculation of a HOS rip-off.

    I'll put some more thought into it, I'm excited :)

    Great name.

    We will have to look into any IP infringement from "300".

    We aren't "officially" announcing anything until next week, but look forward to a late April release. (Dependent on Apple's approval process.):rolleyes:

    Out of the choices you gave I think - Sparta: Lords of War - is the best of those mostly for being the most orginal out of those.

    The others seem too much like HoS or a 300 line ripoff. Not that it would be bad for sales I dunno its a crazy market out there. But personally I dont like titles that do that myself.

    What we are going to do is collect the additions made in this thread and then create a "poll" so you can select your favorite title. I was warned this would be a bad idea since others can "steal" the name we choose, but I am probably too trusting. :D So again, feel free to be creative and original.

    I also like the first one. However, the name of the character is simply The Spartan.

    Brings us to the next dilemma: What should the name of the main character be?

    How about these:

    Sparta!
    Spartan King
    Spartan Conquest

    The main character can be called Cyrus, Argos, or Delos.

    I believe Argos is the main character from "Hero of Sparta." (Not positive, never played it.)

    Delos is the name of an island in Greece.

    Cyrus is Persian (Enemies of the Spartans. "300" bad guys.)

    We were thinking Athos. Any more name suggestions? They are always welcome.

    (Would be easier if we knew what the game was about... Or atleast what genre it is.)
