    GameDaily has reviewed Dungeons & Dragons Online, underlining what makes it different from other MMORPGs and comparing to tabletop sessions. The overall score is a mighty 4.5 out of five. Here's a snip:

    D&D Online is both extremely creative and completely redundant at the same time. It is true that some is borrowed from its cousin MMOs, but D&D Online uses these borrowed elements in whole new ways. Present are the persistent world and instance concepts, but they are handled so uniquely. For example, the expansive city districts are very full, especially within the gathering places like taverns. However, once you accept a quest and head to its origin location, you'll enter the quest area. Here only you and any party members you might be journeying with can enter. Guild Wars and the City of Heroes universes each have this same feature, but D&D Online handles these in its own way.

    Read the whole thing at GameDaily. There's also a one minute review you can download.
