Just another one: Gamespot has posted a preview of Dungeon Siege, Gas Powered Games upcoming action RPG that gets praised like not many games before (in fact, I haven't seen a negative preview so far). Here's a bit:
    And since Dungeon Siege is a hack-and-slash RPG, you'll fight by day, by night, over hills, under dales, and pretty much everywhere and anywhere else. The game uses a highly streamlined system that lets you quickly choose your weapons. Each of your characters gets four slots--a melee weapon slot, a ranged-weapon slot (for bows and thrown weapons), and two magic spell slots--and you can switch your active weapon with a simple hotkey setup. Dungeon Siege will also let you set down general strategies for your stalwart band of adventurers to follow. For instance, you can arrange them in different marching formations, like in many real-time strategy games and also in recent RPGs such as Baldur's Gate II and Icewind Dale. The game will also let you set behavior patterns for your party members--you can set them to hold their ground, actively pursue monsters, attack the nearest or most dangerous enemy, or let them freelance.
