I'm with you pritchke, replayability is probably the biggest factor in buying games. i've only just started this, so I'll try and write something up about it later in the week. So far though it seems like it might be something you would go through again, cause you can switch through the characters. So i guess you could replay it by focusing on a certain character.....

just thoughts, i'm having fun with it so far, be back to report more later

Look like Gamespy deleted their review. Maybe they were not happy with the reviewer.

Too bad, it seemed interesting:

Stormfront Studios takes its action-RPG gameplay from Middle-earth to the Forgotten Realms with some mixed results. The game does several things well, but also does many things poorly or unimpressively
Edit: What!?! This is an action game! I don't want another BG Dark Alliance!

I can check games out from work, and I plan to look at this one this weekend. I will report here when I have. I do know it is an action RPG very similiar to the LOTR Two Towers and ROTK games.

From the reviews I have read, the story is typical but well done with some unexpected twists.

I finally got a chance to bring this home. I must say the production values are quite high and I find myself having fun so far. I usually stay away from this kind of game where I cant develop my own characters but it has drawn me in quite well. I wont be purchasing it myself, but it looks like I will keep it the entire four day period I can check games out from work.

Have you gotten to the part where you get to play with Drizzt yet? I like the 3 main characters, but when you play with drizzt, you just realize how sweet he is.

So, did the game play last longer than 10 hours? Just how many hours did it take for you to play?

i guess it probably took around that, hard for me to keep track. i usually sit down and play the heck out of a game, but i've been pretty busy lately, so i sit down for short stints when i got a chance. Probably a little over ten hours.

I saw a preview on TechG4, and it DOES look awesome, but it is short. I will be renting this as soon as it's at Blockbuster! The Engine IS amazing, and it has such a life-like renderer. VERY smooth! If it was longer, I would buy it.

PS: Been playing Burnout 3 online with a headset, and MAN is that fun!!!! And SSX3 again.
