Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning

Has anyone else read up on this and/or played the demo? I just finished the beginning quest and I'd have to say it plays quite well. Compared to what videos show you can do later on in combat it's pretty bland in the beginning but it just teaches you the mechanics so it's to be expected.

I played it on the PS3. The controls weren't that refined, that graphics weren't very good for a PS3 title, and for something that was given such an intense and dark premise and environment, the in-game world is awkwardly colorful and cartoony, similar to World of Warcraft.

PS3 games don't have that good of graphics to begin with, plus this is also on PC and 360. I was surprised how WoW-like it looked, but the gameplay looks to be promising.

The PS3 can have very good graphics. This game could have looked much better than it did.

well the game is actually a converted MMO, started out mmo then went rpg then since mmo's are almost only on pc it's probably ported over meaning lesser graphics, also the game is made by one of the lead designers or something-ers of Oblivion, a baseball turned gamer person, and some other big names.

As far as consoles go, but compared to the PC they are vastly dated still. Also I was told the demo was 3 months when they released it and that they turned down the graphics to keep the download small so we'll see when it actually comes out. I don't expect anything spectacular but it could be better than the demo.
