PC,360,PS3 all get it.

Should be on the website for PC, marketplace for 360, PSN for PS3.

It has a cross-promotional deal going on with ME3 so I'm playing the demo when I get home.

A little to cartoonish for my taste.

Cool.

I'll be checking it out when I get home.

I thought the videos posted earlier looked pretty cool.

Looks like we all downloaded this yesterday, and no one had a chance to play it. I'll report back when I get some time with it later today.

I played it, it runs through the intro and then gives you 45 minutes to run around the world. Gameplay is solid.

I fooking love how the staff is melee oriented with magic integrated in the swings.

I like it. I like it.

Very nice demo. Probably the best demo I've ever played in terms of amount of gameplay and content included.

Framerate was a welcome change of pace from what I'm used to playing Skyrim.

Looks like this will be the next game I buy.

It looks fun but I'm sad that all the races are either human looking or elf looking. I wanted to make a gnome gameplay looks fun and a great way to get people into the lore. I just don't know if this style will be used in the mmo or if they are gonna transition back into normal mmo interface.

Tried the Demo, I know it's a stripped down version of the game but if they don't allow key remapping I will not buy it.

Schilling said they had to rush out the demo and pretty much had a very stripped down version of the game for the demo

key remapping is such a basic feature in most games these days that it will surely have it. This was just a demo.

tbh, I really didn't have an issue with any of the keys so I'm not sure what needs remapping so badly as to make or break the game.
