A <a href=http://www.1up.com/do/reviewPage?cId=3144663>review</a> of Dungeon Siege II has been posted at <a href=http://www.1up.com/>1up</a>. They give it a score of <b>3.5 stars out of 5</b> as well.<blockquote>But as harsh as it sounds, the real problem with DS2 is the game itself. As Diablo taught us, much fun can be had from clicking hordes of monsters to death and collecting their loot.and during long stretches of DS2, I convinced myself that I was having a good time. But when you get right down to it, none of it--neither the combat nor the loot itself--is very compelling.</blockquote>If the loot is bad and the combat is bad, how did this action RPG get 3.5 stars?

As opposed to what? Its pack-in discounts on mail-order Russian brides?

Of course it's a problem with the game itself. It's a fucking game for crying out loud.


There's a reason why I avoid 1up like a plague of dumbfucks.
