Anybody looking forward to Titan Quest (Diablo type RPG)

BKA · 06-21-2006, 09:53 AM

I have enjoyed the new wave of RPG's with the wonderful 3D world's and first person views. But, honestly I do miss the old 2D RPG style of play. Which is why I've been looking forward to Titan Quest, which is an action-RPG set in ancient Greece and Egypt. I haven't had time to play the demo yet, but I will probably pick it up anyways to get back that old feeling!

I think the game will be pretty good. Unfortunately, the demo had a lot of stuttering issues for me.

Could likely use a video driver update but have been to busy to try it again.

There is a review out already and it is positive and sound promising. I should be picking this up tomorrow on its release date. Haven't done that in a while for a game (reserved and paid full price). Hope its worth the full price. Looks to be 40+ hours of gametime, so between this and Oblivion, I should be busy for a while. At least until NWN 2 is released.

That's another RPG I have my game release list. Sounds good. But won't be released until 10/06. Gotta do something in the meantime.

Here's another review, if you want to call it that. Most of the review is about what loot the reviewer found and how the loot system compares to Diablo II. I really don't like when a review continues to compares a game to a previous game. Its okay to say this "game" is like a past "game". But when you compare every aspect of a game to an older game I don't find the review that helpful. Just review the game for what it is, how hard is that?

I have been looking for something like this. Being multiplayer and made by THQ it should not be that bad. Thanks, I would not have found out about this if I did not see the post.

the demo is slow download 42.7 kb/sec

BKA · 06-26-2006, 04:07 PM

Darn! The ship date has changed to tomorrow (6/27) on Ebgames.com. I haven't called to see if copies will be in tomorrow at the local EB store I reserved it at, but chances are they won't be until Wednesday.

Occasionally Mrs. TQ did experience a crash. About the only other issue we had was a flickering in our flat-panel that was easily fixed by ticking V-Sync. Otherwise the demo ran great at 1600x1200.

EB Austin didn't have it yesterday, though Best Buy did. Mrs. TQ gave me a rack of grief that our nephew had the game before we did.
(I pre-paid EB in full after she told me she liked the demo so I was kind of stuck getting the game from them...)

Same here. Prepaid already. Got the automated call from EBgames yesterday, that it is sure to be there today, so I will be sure to get some good old gaming time in tonight. I noticed on Bestbuy.com that local stores did indeed have it in stock yesterday, its cool though because it gave me a chance to finish up HL2:Episode 1. I'll report back tonight on my first impressions of the full game.
