    God I want to pull the trigger on this but man I don't know. With mass effect 3 releasing soon....also debating twisted metal. God I want to support a new company with ambitious ideas.

    However I don't think there's really anything after Mass Effect 3 for a couple of months. Only sure thing I know I'm getting is Halo 4 and most likely BLOPS 2. Diablo 3 if it releases. Hmmmm.

    So hard to decide, lol.

      I kept the ME3 armor and pre-order weapons in the chest. Most of that stuff is way overpowered compared to your starting loot and would take away some enjoyment. I usually play Rogue when given the opportunity, but I'm going Battle Mage. I like that you can mix and match different armor types, like robes, then heavy armor in other places. Really fun game.

        You could always go as a kick *** rouge Mage hybrid. Back stab with bows then whip out the magic.

          To me it's like diablo with God of War gameplay, it's just an incredibly addicting game. The guy from Gametrailers said there was too much loot, I have to disagree because there can never be too much loot. This game is really fun because you can really be any type of build imaginable. I'm strictly a sorcerer at this point, but I think I'll invest some points in Might later in the game. I've seen knocks on the game being too easy, to me it's just right.

          I have to say I've never agreed more with an IGN review lol, this game is a must have. 38 studios did a great job with this game and I know they will do everything to fully support this game in the future with patches and great DLC.

            I only had time to play the intro dungeon last night, so I haven't seen anything that wasn't in the previews, but the control during combat is as good as advertised. This game has put the action-RPG genre on notice, clunky, frustrating combat is no longer acceptable.

            Do this today: Instead of $%*#!@& on a game you're not going to play or movie you're not going to watch, say something good about a piece of media you're excited about.

            Do the same thing tomorrow. And the next. Now do it forever.

              I'm just getting out of the cave, should I have run into that chest by now?

                Too much loot. That's impossible. It's hard to put down. You want to keep doing one more quest to see if you can do better than what you currently have.

                Right now I have an amazing hammer as my primary. The shark fin faeblades I mentioned before are my secondary. I pummel them and when they get to close I shred them up! I am a rouge, warrior mix called a duelist.

                    So far im loving it. I liked the demo, so i picked it up. Anyone on the fence go pick it up it is a fun game. To me its a mix of Skyrim and Fable so that's not a bad thing.

                      Was doing a rogue type character at my friend's place cause he wanted to see the game(10 minutes in and he was convinced to buy it, the rest just further impressed the both us)

                      Love the customization of the stats in this game, the armor, talents, and then the destinies.

                      Have to start over, thinking of doing the same rogue or trying a battle mage character.

                        It's in the first town next to the inn. It will be on your mini-map.

                          I feel like this game is the child of Darksiders and World of Warcraft. The side quests are very well done, but I don't feel sucked into the main story yet. I am loving doing the side quests though, even more than Skyrim.

                            Well if you're a rogue you can't use it anyway other than the Chakrams. Need 3 points in might to use the other stuff. Should've taken it and sold it at least. I kept it so dunno how much it's worth.

                              The ME3 armor is worth very little and the pre-order weapons are worth 0 gold. I'm restarting on hard, so I may be able to use them. We'll see.

                                Any word on platform preference? I'm leaning 360 because I have tons more hard drive space there. One thing that concerns me about that is I have a Western Digital hard drive and some games don't like that.
