    Yet another Sell Out to the dumbed down console crowd. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy console games but dislike the choice of changing great PC games in-order to pacify console players. Please keep the integrity of the game.

    It looks more fun than Kingdoms of Amalur. And it looks like the graphics are better too.

    Dungeon siege 2 was MUCH BETTER.. Consolosation of some games really hurts some times

    The DLC allows rebinding of keys for the PC. I dont think they ever patched it to where you could rebind keys without the DLC.

    The DLC is pretty decent, and challenging on hardcore.

    I would also recommend playing the game with an X360 controller (which is what i did).

    @Aisar87
    Yeah the online is completely pointless, it's just there if you're bored or are after the absurd trophies, or simply need a helping hand with a boss if the AI doesn't do what you want. It's a great single player game though. But if you have a dedicated partner to play with, you wont notice the lack of not being able to keep loot, if you two are always together you will be able to share everything anyway.

    While i would of been quite angry if i brought this full price at release, borrowed this from a friend for the xbox and found it quite enjoyable on hardcore and he got it for £10 new, just dont make the mistake of buying it to do co-op like he did that side of it really is appalling. If your just looking for some Action rpg fun its quite worth picking up for the low price it is now.

    If you cannot use your own character or keep loot in multiplayer what is the point? Is multiplayer and 4-person groups not its strong suit? I was seriously thinking about playing this until D3 but no way now.

    The game is pretty solid, good gameplay and a great loot. Just what this kind of game needs.

    Glad I came here before I opened this. I looked it up on my phone at the store and saw a good score on my G4 ap so I grabbed it. Now that it's sitting in a Wal Mart bag with a receipt the bad reviews have me wanting to get back my $63

    At least it's not as glitchy as Obsidian's last two games

    At first I thought that PS3 gamers are stupid, but it's good that I woke up, that only morons like PC gamers would support permanent internet connection. I hate PC gamers, after 500 games purchased. Sorry I went after too much time on PS3, what good games are here.

    I still like this game & deserve better, obsidian provide online game play so people can get trophy or achievement easier, and because the online content, I manage to got the platinum trophy.

    You know nothing about the action rpg genre, do you?

    He didn't mean not having to do anything, he meant LETTING US USE THE DAMN MOUSE, NOT THE KEYBOARD TO COMPLETE ACTIONS.

    Action RPGs aren't mindless dribbles. They're supposed to be there for the action. Look at Diablo 2. Can you say it didn't have a well thought story? Sure, ingame you don't come across alot of it, but as a whole it is a well designed, clever storyline.

    Please get back to your consoles and enjoy the PoS consolization.

    This review is ridiculous. Although it has some completely valid points (such as online being screwed and the annoying camera), I can't believe somebody would actually have the audacity to complain about having to face an enemy in order to attack, or having to "press a key" to open a chest. Is this really what PC gamers want? To just click the screen like an idiot and win? I somehow doubt it.

    Dungeon diving games are evolving, whether you like it or not. And while small games (with small budgets) like Torchlight are going to stay simple and true to the "no story, PSX graphics, loot everywhere and click to win!" idea, the bigger ones such as Dungeon Siege are going to begin incorporating story, graphics, and skill into their formula. Considering the mindless dribble we've been handed for the past umpteen years, I feel it's a good direction for the genre as a whole.

    Although Dungeon Siege III obviously has a good bit of ironing to do.

    Don't see how he can say that this game isn't as good as Torchlight or Deathspank. Perhaps he doesn't know, but Torchlight and Deathspank don't have the multiplayer option like DS3. The reason this game failed in summary, is that it was conSOLD out. They are always dumbing down good computer games to allow console people to play it. Happy gaming

    i just bought it today for my 360 (still haven't played it) and i can't believe that this game got such a low/terrible/dumbed down user opinion.. i bought this game because i really like DS franchise.. now i'm starting to regret buying this game.. well at least i'll just give it a try..

    Kevin VanOrd was actually nice giving this game 6.5. Bought this game to play it online but the camera's spinning around during the co-op mode just gave me headache. I had to play it single player, and it was not memorable at all. Actually the game being short should be considered a positive side of it, since while playing I couldn't wait to reach the end and trade this game in my nearest game shop while it's worth something.

    PC gamers can be so arrogant.

    Just an ok game to pass the time, loot is the only thing that keeps you going really, a bit short (2 days to finish it), still some fun to be had.

    just don't go in expecting dungeon siege 2 and it'll actually turn out alright.
