Was released today though I got it yesterday cos on-line shop ships sooner :)

At a basic level its just your standard fps except you dont shoot you impale on swords. Played the first training mission only but on my high end comp it looks superb plays very smooth and has some lovely touches (like kicking enemies over edges).

not got it yet due to my bank acc getting hacked so have no casheroo till next week. from what I gather though it is just like es: oblivion visually and gameplay, but without the 'total freedom' thing they have?

either way I am looking forward to playing it :)

I got it and played it some today. Just be aware its rather buggy atm and its a lottery if the SP works smoothly. Be prepared for 5+ min plus load times though a patch is in the works. As for MP its great fun and well implemented, the way you can maintain levels and abilities as the maps progress is really good as it takes a good few maps to get truely powered up.

Its pretty fun actually. Despite what gamespots review says (fucking EA buttkissers)

You run on a linear level, slashing your way through black guards and orcs. Can be pretty hard if you don´t like to play the sneaking type.

The amount of installing required for this game is a bit silly though, it wants installing the game from the cd, adobe acrobat reader, steam, playlinc(don't know what that is..anyone know?) updates for steam, installing the game through steam...jeez this better be good ;p

and now i've got all that sorted, and it says the steam servers are too busy to do anything for me so i can't even play it..

u can play single player game without steam.

So far its been a blast... im just a bit stuck now though ... zombie disease is nasty >< and ive run out of potions to cure it qq.

Tbh its more fun than Oblivion but lacks the free roaming that u got with oblivion which made it so cool.

Now give the strength 3 skill so i can use my lifetap sword !! xD

It rly fux me off as i had this loading into the first chapter. However a quick grfx update seemed rto solve the chapter 1 bug... now i cant get past chapter 7 qq
