mmm spellforce any good? the description confuses me... what sort of game is it? they list the following ....

Categories: RPG, Real-time Strategy, Roleplaying Games, Turn-based RPG, Strategy, Real-time Strategy

surely it isn't all of them... rofl

Spellforce is a half rts, half rpg. Mainly focuses on character progression in the single player. I think its missing quiet a bit of stuff from both genres. I would prob give the first spellforce a 6.5-7 / 10. Haven't played spellforce 2 as of yet.

ah ok good to know... i like the RTS/RPG mix genre... might give it a look... i spotted theres a demo so i'll jump on that first

as long as it isn't turn based i'm happy... lol

EDIT: for the super ultra tight arses out there... its actually cheaper to buy the Spellforce Platinum and Spellforce 2 Gold bundles seperately then to buy the Spellforce Universe pack.... by 1c.... rofl

Assuming you don't get charged a per transaction "international transaction" fee from your bank.
