How good is it? ETW, overall....review

[MikeV]

So what is the general thought about ETW now? I am reading a lot of complaints.

Check out twcenter.net for the gushing fanboy raves. Here, you'll get a more balanced review.

It is now apparent I will have to buy a new computer to play. HP should be giving CA a kickback. I need a new machine for every new TW.

Yeah, I hate that too. But, all the game developers are caught in the same Prisoners' Dilemma: if they don't satisfy the magazine reviewers with high-end graphic eye candy, they'll never get the Best Game of the Year at E3. Sacrificing those of us with "ancient," 3-year old machines, is the price they're willing to pay to get it ("Think of the prize, boys!" )
