<A href="http://www.gamespy.com/previews/october03/dsarannapc/">Hands on preview</a> of <a href="http://www.microsoft.com/games/pc/dsloa.aspx">Legends of Aranna</a> over at <a href="http://www.gamespy.com">GameSpy</a>, detailing much of what's been covered to death over the last few days of the pre-release hype that's been brewing for this title. Here's a taste:
<br>
<br>
<blockquote>Much of the adventure in Legends of Aranna involves efforts to stop the arch-villain known as the Shadow Jumper from using a powerful staff to enslave the people of Aranna. Tracking him down and defeating him will take some doing, and along the way a host of powerful bosses will stand in your way. In our beta version, defeating some of these bosses seemed a bit too easy; the developers have stressed that they're still providing play balance. The spider-like queen, who no doubt will seem somewhat inspired by The Lord of the Rings' Shelob, seemed far from boss-like, but the final game may offer a greater challenge. With multiple difficultly settings, you'll also have the opportunity to try things at a large level as well. </blockquote>

Every fantasy setting needs a <i>spider queen</i>, doesn't it?
