Has anyone played this game? I don't play a lot of games since I don't have a gaming consule. But my friend has a PS3 so when I go to his house I can play video games if I want. It's a pretty complex game with a ridiculous amount of side options and quite a bit of choice as to how you react to situations.

For instance you can get a mission to go assassinate someone for some organization or other person, and then when you get to the person to assassinate you can get options of striking a deal with them and letting them go, kill the bastard or just tell them to get lost and not run into you again. And it has regular fighting not that BS where you select your moves like Final Fantasy(nothing against people who like that or simular games I just don't enjoy that type of game play.

Basically it sort of takes place in old times, and you're a guy who's teamed up with orcs to complete a main mission and save the main characters sister but there are lots of twists and turns and all kinds of crap you can do in the game. So has anyone played, and does anyone have recommendations of similar games? Aside from that I completed Brutal Legend and I have to admit was a bit disappointed with it so I'd rate it a 6 of 10 and I played Call of Duty 3 I think it was when my brother used to have an X-box but it was the one where you fight in WW2. Then of course sometimes I play black ops zombies when people I am chilling with at my friends house are up for it......I didn't play the whole game just the shooting zombies.

Very underrated game in my opinion~

I loved the quests and combat. The magic system was really fun too to play around with.
The only big gripe about the game is the ending... it felt soooo hollow.
Other than that I had tons of fun playing it.

I bought it for really cheap recently off PSN. Enjoyed it up till the expansion and quit mid way I think. It's a fun game and the SP was fun, tried MP for a quest or three and it wasn't my cup of tea. If we could get a group for MP I would not mind trying it again. It was all the randoms that really ruined it with kids constantly yelling etc that bugged me.

Yeah not sure how close I am to the end, I think fairly close.........got to the part where the one chick turns into a dragon and was trying to kill her but I kept dying within seconds so now I'm just going back and doing all the other side missions first. But yeah if that is sort of towards the end I suppose I am almost there though I still have a sh*t load of side quests still.

I think when I do complete it I am likely to play it again, but select different choices for situations next time. I like all the options you get for how to go about completing quests. It is certainly fun to play, but yeah I agree it seems kind of under-rated I don't usually hear it being discussed or see it being discussed on the internet except last night I was confused about a certain quest so I looked online to find what I was supposed to do.

I haven't played Two Worlds but I remember hearing about it and being very excited... Until I read it had terrible reviews so I scratched that off the list of games to try. I didn't know Two Worlds 2 came out, but maybe I will try it I don't know yet...

You may like Fallout 3 and Fallout New Vegas. They are both post apacolyptic FPS AND RPG rolled into one. You make most of the decisions, there are side quests and the main storyline, the combat is fluid, the world is full of things to see and do, the storylines are extremely interesting and often comical, for RPG's they are some of the best. Elder Scrolls Skyrim also comes to mind, I am sure you have heard of it. It's probably the best RPG out right now. Also if you want a free to play game with the option of a subscription ($15 a month) I would recommend DC Universe, where you can basically create your own super hero and play with other players online in an open world doing a bunch of things like you would in any of the above RPG's.

Yeah I heard the original Two Worlds sucked, and I read two worlds 2 is not a continuation of the first one basically a better version. I suppose I would say at least my copy is a little glitchy at times like when the characters are talking the sentence might get cut off early or just minor flaws with the video

Also are those all PS3? as for playing PS3 games online I havn't done that yet. But yeah I like games where the character has lots of options, that allow for a little bit of a dark side. I don't really like games were you're purely the good guy fighting direct evil sort of games.

That's interesting. I did a couple youtube searches on TWII and they said the same thing. Basically TWI sucks and gave people the wrong impression of the TWII release. I thought the combat looked really good and the large world was also nice. Minor video flaws are no big deal. I wouldn't be able to join you in a game though, since I only have a Xbox 360.

Yup all of those games have a PS3 version. PS3 Online is free, so that's good. DC Universe is also free to play on the PC so I don't think you will need to buy it for the PS3. Perhaps it is somewhere in the marketplace for PS3 to download? I haven't played DC Universe much myself, but they do have a villain/hero system that can make the game pretty interesting at times. One neat fact about DC Universe is PS3 and PC players all get to play together in the same servers.
