This past year was a bit slow on the role playing game front. While a few heavy hitters came out, the majority of 2006 was a bit on the ho-hum side of things. 2007 is shaping up to be anything but slow and one of the games that will come out of the gates early is Two Worlds.
Due out this spring for Xbox 360 and PC, Two Worlds is expected to fill in a bit of the gap that is opening now that people are finally getting their fill of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion...

First one was garbage. The second was a janky cheese-fest. And then their follow-up release, Raven's Cry, wasn't even complete at launch; doing so badly they re-released it under a new title more than a year later ... still not complete.
I'm probably in the minority but I loved the second one! I acknowledge that it wasn't a great game but I enjoyed it thoroughly and even platinumed it >_<
The first one was pretty bad, but I enjoyed the second despite its flaws. A bit rough around the edges, but it was a pretty decent RPG.
"Two Worlds is a weird game. But that’s fine, because that’s why it’s worth talking about.
"It didn’t sit with critics all too well on its release back in 2007, but take a quick look at its GoG page and you’ll find glowing review after glowing review.
"Along with many people, I also like it – even though it's absolutely terrible."
There's something genuinely great about a game that's so bad it's good - probably because it's a rarer thing to find in gaming than, say, movies.
Back in the day I got obsessed with a really weird FPS called PO'ed. It was rubbish in so many ways, but it had more personality and character than pretty much any other shooter I've ever played.
Ignoring the cheesy dialog, the PC version of the first Two Worlds was actually a good game. The 360 version was a complete mess though.
We all like to play video games with our friends. However, there are many games that will strain a relationship as players struggle to work together. This list commemorates the most frustrating games to play with a friend, or anyone for that matter.
Looks like it will shape up to be good.
Horses in games = million seller.
As long as it isn't a sloppy PC port like Oblivion (a fantastic game but poor framerate and has quite a lot of glitches) then this will be another quality game for the 360.
Looks like crap. RPG's are not my favorite. I kinda liked Oblivion. After 50 hours of play I got tired of it. The fact that I only finished about 20% shows how good I am at RPG's
If this game is half as good as Oblivion, I'll be playing it for a long time.
