Hi! I finished this last night, and what a pleasure it was to play. This is one that I'll definitely play over.

I have a few questions though. The teaser trailer for the game showed Nate with the sword, slamming it into the ice, an almost exact duplicate of one of the beginning teasers for World of Warcraft. But that scene is nowhere in the game. Does anyone know why it was left out? Did Blizzard object to it?

Also, what games did you all recognize? I know some was from Lord of the Rings, and some from World of Warcraft. Were there any others?

That's a good question, JeanK. Maybe it's from Critter Chronicles, the shorter followup to BOUT. They were probably working on that at the same time. Or maybe it was cut for some reason or other. What's Blizzard, btw?

Gil.

I believe that Blizzard is the publisher of WOW.

Yes, Blizzard publishes WOW. It was actually that part of the teaser that interested me the most. I just checked on their website and they it for both Book and Critter.

I've only played the demo so far, but I have seen the game at my local EB games store. And it is a game I plan to buy and play...

I've so far seen hints and hommages to World of Warcraft, and a hint and hommages to Star Wars - you do not need to see my papers' or something like that.

I laughed so hard that I nearly did what the monkey did later in the demo - rarely has there been a game so fun and so well-made...to play.
