    IGN, too, has reviewed Demon Stone. Here's a bit of what they say:

    Over a hundred years pass by, and as these things often turn out, our trio of heroes accidentally frees the evil pair of uglies shortly after their fated meeting. Determined to set things right again, and strangely compelled by an unknown force, Rannek, Zhai, and Illius begin their journey to put a stop to the world's biggest mistake and make a pact to seal them back into the Demon Stone forever. It's almost RPG-like isn't it?

    Veterans of The Two Towers and Return of the King should recognize Demon Stone's gameplay right out of the gate -- it's definitely not an RPG. Though it does feature a few likeminded elements to that genre scattered throughout the experience here and there, Forgotten Realms is at its heart an identical game to the aforementioned EA Lord of the Rings titles. In the land of Faerun, it's all about action, action, and more action.

    About what I thought after the previous review. Not to be picky, but I remember people talking about an Action RPG.

    Read the whole thing at IGN.

    Well, it seems you were wrong :D

    [Sigh] Yet *another* action game ported from console to PC... this is getting old. It does make me wonder why people bother getting Salvatore and the like to write the story for an action game. Another marketing trick I guess.
