I found a few from google... I have it and love it for PC... but from what I'm told, the gameplay is somewhat different for PC vs consoles

Gamespot is the site I use for evaluations on games, they do a very good job.

This game needs to allow gamers to have free will then it would be epic. I hate being forced into answering a question a certain way. You can answer different of course, but in the end you will have to do what the game wants. Only when it comes to selecting members do you really have a say. I just want a game like KOTOR

I guess you never played Knights of the Old Republic or Oblivion. Whatever you do in those 2 games will impact everything. If you kill someone in Oblivion for fun people will respond to you in different ways, some will be afraid, some wont.

For those of you who are interested in this game (for PC) check out steam tomorrow/today (June 20th)

They are going to have a discount on it and so far some of the discounts (for the EA week) have been pretty substantial (lowest I've seen being 33% highest being 75%)

What's that?

I'm still debating about risking it on ps3..

Steam is essentially iTunes for gaming ran by Valve.

You can basically come across any game on steam cant you? Darklight the game would be a good pickup as it is probably a cheaper buy now and you can easily get 50 hours of gameplay in 1 story.

It's still about 40 bucks on Amazon. It conflicts with my cheapness.

That's a pretty good deal.

Just how bad is the language in this game? Is it comparable to say, Uncharted: Drake's Fortune (which had too much cursing imo)?

I really didn't notice too much profanity... but then again it doesn't really effect me either way

there are some gory kill scenes in regular fights (beheadings etc) but I will attest that this is the best Single Player RPG of the year, if not the decade for the PC
