Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning for Xbox 360 Reviews by Gamers

I judge a game (like allot of people do) by my first impression. The story was good enough at the start and the game play is really basic. If you enjoy slash-type rpg's then this is probably for you.

This game is phenomenal! I have played 20 hours in the past 3 days, I have never been so addicted to any game ever. It is like Fable but with a more complex/better combat system. There are a ridiculous amount of quests (so many I can't fathom anyone doing all of them) and the area is huge. KoA is on par with Skyrim and better in some aspects (combat, loot, etc.) One thing I really wish it had, and maybe I just haven't gotten there yet, is some sort of mount or pet system. I'm always a little weary about starting RPGs because each interface/combat/inventory system varies so much, but I really felt that KoA made everything easy to understand and did a good job of explaining things along the way. If you are on the fence about this game, I strongly recommend you give it a shot. RIYL: Fable, Warcraft, Skyrim, Zelda...
