Sweet, now if only there was a store that had a copy of the game. Gamestop is backordered, and the local store told me they're getting 2 copies in to the store, and I can't reserve one or pre-order now. Anyone else having problems finding this game?

You really sure you want this game? Did you try the singleplayer demo?

I would definitely try the single player demo before dropping the cash on the counter. I like RTS games but this one wasn't for me.

Yep the demo pretty much sucked the sweat off dog balls..... I have yet to find a Fantasy based RTS game that takes me away from WC III, or my old HOMM titles.

Try Kohan or Kohan II. Very good stuff in these. Not much of a base of players unfortunately.

Welcome BlindSwordsman, long time no see!

Anyway, I concur with the recommendation of Kohan. It is a awesome little game, and the original (or the reworked version where you play as the bad guys) can be found for cheap.

Yeah, I played the demo, and liked it. Take that! I'm just pissed that it seems to be getting delayed over and over, when its supposed to already be out. I can't even seem to get it off of EB's site, they just pushed it back to monday.

Yea, I read the review at Gamespot, sounded really cool to me, the design seemed great, but I'll have to check out the demo. Enough bad comments here to make me not believe the hype (although negative comments here are fairly expected :)).

I'm definitely getting Dragonshard the Demo was not bad (I was expecting worse) and the Gamespot review hinted at things that sound really good.

I tried Kohan 2 and didn't really like it, it felt too shallow (to me anyway), at least with added RPG stuff underground Dragonshard has more depth. No pun intended.

I generally trust gamespot so i'm gonna give this one a shot when i get back to work and get some more cash. And if nothing else I'd be supporting a game thats trying something new, theres not enough new these days. They should have a genre called "new", I'd be all over that shit.

Demo was kind of slow and unchallenging, but I'm hoping the real game is a step up from that. I'll buy it, if I can find it.
