    Another overview of the games of 2006 has been posted at RPGWatch, with a few harsh words about a number of last year's releases. After the lamenting however, it goes on to mention a few of the promising releases due for 2007 to lift your spirits. Here's a snip:

    Oblivion wasn’t the only major franchise sequel in 2006 – in fact, high profile sequels were the hallmark of the year. Obsidian’s Neverwinter Nights 2 (NWN2) was certainly one of the most anticipated games of the year, with fans eagerly waiting to see what writer Chris Avellone would turn out. NWN2 marked a return to classic party-based gaming and included an interesting stronghold scenario and crafting. As with Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords, Obsidian delivered a darker, deeper gameworld but couldn’t match the level of polish that BioWare delivered before them. NWN2 was also disappointingly linear and had some strange interface oversights but there are good signs that Obsidian will continue to develop and improve the title over the long term.
