Gamespy is the second site up with it's Shadows of Undrentide review. Their score is 84 and here's a sample:

In addition to the classes available in Neverwinter Nights, there are five new prestige classes for you to choose from. You can mold your character to become an arcane archer, a shadowdancer, an assassin, a black guard, or a Harper scout. I played through the game as a shadowdancer and an arcane archer and used cheat codes to try out the other three prestige classes. I had the most fun as a shadowdancer; the hide in plain sight ability is too sweet. Those that want to play the game as an evil character will enjoy the black guard and assassin classes; the former is the antithesis of a paladin and a blacker knight that Martin Lawrence could ever hope to be, while the latter has a vast array of stealthy and lethal attacks. I was a little disappointed with the arcane archer; the class has loads of killer bow attacks, but their use was limited. In my mind, every other arrow an arcane archer shoots -- for gaming purposes anyway -- should be a death arrow. Lastly, the Harper scout is best for role-playing purposes. I didn't really enjoy the class since Harpers remind me of Jaheira from the Baldur's Gate series and she always annoyed me, but do-gooders should enjoy playing as a Harper.
