NZGamer: Divinity II: Ego Draconis Review

NZGamer writes: "First and foremost, don't just look at the score and make some assumptions; the number, in this case, is relatively poor at explaining the quality of the game. Even the section numbers alone don't tell the full story. Read on...

Divinity II is, as the name implies, a sequel. The original title, Divinity (and it's expansion, Beyond Divinity), was an isometric (think: Diablo) RPG using a dated (even at the time) 2D engine to spin its tale of magic and dungeons. Divinity II, however, leaps straight into the present, leveraging the same engine used for Fallout 3 and Oblivion and bringing the gameplay into third-person 3D. Unlike those games (and a certain other Dragon-related RPG released recently), the focus of the gameplay in Divinity II is action roleplaying (emphasis on the action)."

Ahh he looks so happy playing the Piano there.

Never knew of him, but RIP. I heard 2-3 of the songs online and they were pretty good.

Some Great Deals For Games On The Xbox 360

IM PLAYIN highlights some of the great games that you can currently get on the Xbox 360, including some that are multiplatform, for relatively cheap.

"State of Decay is crazy cheap on the Xbox Live Marketplace, considering how many hours you can squeeze out of it. It’s one of those games that you can play religiously for hours, or flit in and out of when you’re looking for a bit of filler. As far as zombie survival games go, this is one of the greats. It’s also one of the first to do it, especially on such a grand scale. Search for supplies, clear out the zombie hordes and grow both your community of survivors and your base of operations – all whist exploring a pretty decent sized game world ranging from country fields to packed towns."

Gotta love XBL! I bought so many good games for insanely low prices in the past year. It's a great way to end a lifecycle in my opinion.
