IGN: Rift Review

There's a steep learning curve, but once you're comfortable with what Rift offers, you will find a deeply immersive experience. Telara is a worthy alternative to Azeroth for anyone looking to explore a new world.

Solid. I'm a WoW man but I'll give this a shot.

Dude, "Graphics-9.0".

I know it's an MMO, but still, that is not 9/10 graphics, on any platform...

Dude...

Raendom4812d ago

I agree. Not a 9/10 in any world. Pretty art style, but then again most MMOs have that. Nothing really THAT unique about Rift's visual style.

its not how many coloring crayons you haver that counts, its what you draw with them that does.

This game looks damn good on my PC all in a resolution current consoles can only dream off.

Ill try it if they ever let you have a trial instead of spending 50 bucks for a game your not certain to like

Montrealien4812d ago

You do understand that yo can spend upwards to 40 hours in your first month, and that is more then many retail games offer. Just saying, you still get your moneys worth out of the free trial of an MMO, if you have the time ofcourse.

femshep4812d ago

yeah but if i dont like it then i wasted 50 bucks for nothing....comp games arnt like console games where if i dont like it i can return them for full money back

plb4812d ago
