Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning


Has anyone checked this game out yet? Or heard any reviews about it?
Looks pretty cool, but I wanted a few opinions before I pick it up haha
Differences between the consoles? I was planning to grab it for PC.

Thoughts?

picked this up for 360

its essentially God of War combat on a massive scale.. not to say thats anything but bad

sooo much customization on weapons. you can salvage your old ones to create and improve the current one your using..

im 3 and half hours into the game and im still in the first town i run into to, if you like hoarding all the quest you ever encounter, expect to be overwhelmed..

this game might slip under the radar because not alot of people are aware of the game or look down on this as a poor man's skyrim.. at least this game is free of bugs so far

in before people comparing this to WoW.

I got the game and is fun to sit back and enjoy some single player content. Combat is fun as well. Yeah i'm still in the first town doing all the quest i find.

i never tried the demo but apparently the demo was developed seperately in house by EA as oppose to original developers, which is wierd and the feedback wasnt great, its apples and oranges compared to the final product

also this game was an MMO in development for years, it wasnt until they partnered up with EA and the publisher suggested they scale back the game and release it as a single player....

This game is like fable, if you like fable you'll love this game. I'm at the first town. Didn't know that I would get killed stealing items in the chest by the guards.....
