    Hmmmm – maybe Im confused m8 – I got a copy of PC gamer few days ago and havent read it yet – but thought this was the game on the front cover?

    If it was (it definately had hell in the title) then it only gets 67%

    Ill check when i get home.

    Typically Games media will get to play and review the final release candidate before it goes to full production and shipping for retail release.

    Obviously it’s in the publishers interest to do this to add to the marketing campaign in the run up to the Retail Release.

    Downloaded and tried the demo – it was absolutely terrible.

    Anyway – it’s not an mmo Ryzo, I think it’s more like Guild Wars in that it has single player levels and multiplayer hubs.

    understood this, but checked a few sites i usually use, and they didnt have one out, so wasnt sure wht review was read over,

    also, yeah i no its not entirely mmo, but then again, guildwars is installed on my system, i like the idea and gameplay of it, how comes u didnt like it though?

    Sorry, absolutely terrible is a bit simplistic.

    If you liked Guild Wars you’ll probably think it’s okay. You just seem to run through the levels and click on mobs to kill them – just like Guild Wars then.

    I suppose is not a bad thing but if you want a game where there is a story and characters then this isn’t it.

    I did have terrible graphical glitches on the demo too, which I can’t really blame on my system because the Cod4 and UT demos ran without any problems at all.

    Well, ordered, and will see how it goes, im sure the graphical glitches, if the game, will be patched – and as for the story and characters, then sure, not too much behind it other than londons being invaded by demons etc, but then again, looks fun, and hopefully playable 😀

    Yup – thats the one.

    73% doesent sound too good to me… but if you like the format of it then it could be worth a look.
