Modern day Hack and Slash fun, that should be checked out by all RPG fans.

User Rating: 9 | Dungeon Siege II PC
Diablo has reigned supreme as the Hack and Slash RPG king for the PC, until now. You start off the game by creating your hero's character. There are 4 different races to pick from: Human, Elf, Dryad, and Half-Giant, each with their own benefits (such as bonuses to dexterity, bonus to strength, etc.) The customization options are not the most "detailed" I have seen in an RPG before, but it does offer a nice variety. The thing I like about this game is that it doesn't make you pick a class that you have to stick with. Instead they have a skill tree system, where after you have used a skill for a certain length of time (melee attack, ranged attack, combat magic, or nature magic) you can than use the skill point in that category and pick a sub-field to strengthen in. The possibilities are endless when it comes to creating that ultimate killing machine, so have fun with it but don't get too careless with the skill points and make an all around hero, because in the end he/she won't be as useful. At this point and time I've only played this game for about 10 hours, but it's been a blast. I can't wait to play through the normal difficulty so I can go on and play veteran difficulty after that. Also, you can find cool rare items in the game that have glowing auras when equipped, another cool feature.All in all I give this game a 9 out of 10, and recommend it to the hardcore RPG fan and the Noob alike.
