ZeroTolerance writes: Divinity II definitely has a lot of things working against it. For starters comparisons to BioWare's latest RPG are sure to sprout up. Both games involve Dragons and both attempt the classic RPG flavor that was made popular on the PC. Amazingly both games are also quite different when it comes to their actual mechanics. While the aforementioned title focuses more on strategy and methodically paced combat, Divinity comes with a more action-oriented feel. The quest system is fairly familiar and the story, while not the most original or well-told, does manage to deliver a strong enough narrative to keep you interested. If you have another 60 hours to sink into an RPG this season, Ego Draconis could be well worth the effort.
Kirill Pokrovsky, who composed the music of Larian Studio's Divinity series of games, passed away yesterday.
"A great man, a fantastic composer and a good friend passed away yesterday. Rest in peace Kirill Pokrovsky – we will miss you."

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.
He have filled me with Magic since 2002, with the Release of Divine Divinity. His Music gaves me alot of chills. And he was a nice person too. My best wishes to the Family, i will miss him and his music that he woud have written.
With Evolve finally coming out today, Paste looks at ten other games that let you play as monsters.
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.
There r a ton of other gameplay elements who make you forget the graphical issues.....i give it a solid 8/10.(some people may like the ending.....it's original)
I was looking forward to it and the visuals are atrocious! The gameplay is pathetic and overall it just fails.
There is still a game to come out that looks and plays as good as Oblivion and 4yrs on that game still looks, feels and plays awesome.
Did you play the 360 version....??? If so I cannot say since I have not seen it...but on PC...it looked freakin sweet and ran at over 100fps...in full 1080p with 8x anit-aliasing. I haven't beat it yet but clocked in over 35 hours...I like it better than dragon age...Dragon Age should have been called "Fisher Price`My First RPG"
