From <a href="http://www.gamingnexus.com/Default.aspx?Section=Article&I=1008" target="_blank">Gaming Nexus</a>:<blockquote><em> did have a pretty interesting event happen to me as I was playing the game. I'm riding my horse to get one of the waypoints of the main quest and I get attacked by a wolf and a rogue woodsman. It was getting late (just after dusk) so I can barely see the wolf but I hear the arrows from the woodsman landing near me. I get off the horse to take care of them as you can't attack or cast magic while mounted. As soon as I’m off the horse the wolf attacks and chases the horse off into the woods. I break out the sword and shield and chase after him. I catch up to the woodsman and cast a few flares (light fireball spell) at him while moving closer to finish him off with the sword. The spells help provide some light at night as well. I take care of him and then turn around to find the wolf heading my way. After finishing off the wolf, my horse is still no where to be seen so I wander around a bit and eventually find the body of the animal further back in the woods. It looks like the wolf finally caught up to the horse, killed it and then came back to finish me It was a pretty cool event and showed off a lot of what makes the game so special. Rather than walk the rest of the way to the town I just pulled up the map and fast traveled to the city I was going to as I was just exploring the countryside to check out the various locations and collect some spell ingredients.</em></blockquote><a href="http://www.gamerandy.com/" target="_blank">GamerAndy</a> joins in with a preview, interview and podcast (hit the link):<blockquote><em>Alright, I feel really bad writing anything about this because I don't honestly feel like I saw much of it - And that right there is, I think, worth saying. Overall, I was the least impressed with NPC and enemy AI. That might sound harsh, but I was so awestruck by the rest of this game, that this isn't even much of an issue. All that being said, this is not something I was paying an awful lot of attention to, and it could very well be incredible. But it was definitely not one of the things that jumped out at me.</em></blockquote>Thanks <a href="http://www.bluesnews.com/" target="_blank">Blue's</a>. |

I can't believe I have read, watched and listened to them all, had way to much time this weekend.
Well, execpt this one GamerAndy, can not figure out how to use podcast, all the other gamesite had downloads of mp3s.
Have a choice about 3 buttons Podacast, XML and Add to Itunes.
Don't have ITiunes install so it sends me to install page or something, o'well.
A nice thing is many reviewers seem to have focused on differnt player types, have seen a Rogue, Mage and Fighter write up, nice mix listed here, over the last couple of days. |

Yep ,the reviews have been pretty cool, and am starting to eagerly anticipate the game! I only hope I don't need a major upgrade to get it running on my 'puter, as alas, I cannot afford to do so right now.
