Please keep in mind these reviews are made by people, the scores reflect their opinion. Just because you disagree with a particular score does not mean that they are wrong in anyway. If you find the Gamespot reviews so disconcerting then I recommend using a different website for reviews; if no reviewer matches your opinion closely enough then you'll just have to live with it, there is no reason to complain about the reviews you disagree with.

[QUOTE="stike22"]Diablo and Baldurs are pretty much the same thing, both were highly overrated but they were good games. They are both hack n slash type RPGs and both pretty dead now, still I would say Diablo is better, at least it has a decent level up system.

It doesn't sound like you have played Baldur's Gate if you think it is hack and slash, it has a good level up system, quite complex for an inexperienced RPG player. Definitely not overrated though. I feel that Diablo is arguably overrated, but still had a large impact on gaming. The Witcher is certainly not deeper though, that is not to say it's shallow though, it even feels somewhat convoluted to me. The attack system was not the only problem I had with it. I found much of the game to feel like it was kind of jumbled. The camera was terrible, and I seemed to have a unique problem in that whenever Geralt walked over a bump on the terrain the camera would violently jump up, this occured every few steps and would get worse for the longer I played it. F3, Oblivion and Morrowind are all excellent. Though I don't think they're as good as Fallout 1 & 2 though.

Baldur's Gate 2 is the best fantasy RPG, probably ever. Oh and to the recommendation of The Witcher, I don't see why everyone likes that game so much; it seemed decent, but not superb or anything. Maybe it's because it ran like ass on my computer, but the combat was too Diablo-esque for me and very little stood out as particularly good. I never finished it, so maybe it got better or something, but after all it's hype I was quite disappointed.

It's the cover of my favourite album (Lullabies to Paralyze) by one of my favourite bands (Queens of the Stone Age). One of my favourite albums ever.

The biggest loss for me would be the loss of MSN, so I'd probably hang out with friends more. Not heaps more though, I usually don't spend heaps of tme on the internet.
