    No score from Insomniac Gamers, but they say the game is the best RPG (on any platform) to come along in years. Here's an excerpt from the few negative sides they found in the game.

    Though it pains me to do so, I should at least attempt to touch on the game’s weak points, of which there are few. First off, the game is massive. The time one would need to invest in order to explore every cavern, and complete every quest, is nearly incalculable. I personally live for that sort of thing, but a casual player may find his efforts do futilely little in regard to pushing the plot forward. Also, the henchmen are a little lifeless at times. Though each of the six are willing to chat about their backgrounds, which are generally interesting (The one exception here is Boddyknock Glinckle: he’s just plain old fashioned lame), they have nothing to say about what’s going on around them.

    Read everything here.

    Yeeps. Looks far to positive and grossly glowing to even read. I swear, I blame reviewers like that one for people who buy the game and come out disatisfied when they find the Official Campaign merely so-so. I don't think I ever jumped and and exclaimed “Damn Skippy! I saved the day again!” after completing anything in the game. All in all, far to short and glowing a review for the worst part of a good game system that has it's faults as well.
