Took a peek inside the September issue of PCZone (out at the end of July) to see their Gothic 2 review. They gave it 80%. Didn`t have time to read the review.

| The guy who did the terrible review in PC Gamer (gave Gothic 2 62%) is called Ross. His e-mail address is in the magazine, so I`ve already written to him and told him that he is plain wrong. |

Bought PC Gamer today and was appalled at their review of Gothic 2 (62%).
What IS it with UK computer mags and the Gothic games. I remember PCZone seriously under-rating Gothic 1, giving it 70-odd p ... |
