Just picked this up after reading some very positive reviews. Seems right up my particular fantasy/RPG street but with what's been described as 'God of War' like combat. Sounds like a heady mix, and hopefully it will work.
Anyone else played it yet? thoughts?

Not sure that's Burial, but it sounds like him, and it's pretty **** good, too.
It's not Burial mate - hence the NEW bit being underlined and uppercase. Thought it sounded decent though.
OT I know but I've never really been a big fan of Star Trek (the reboot movie was enjoyable) but I absolutely **** love The Wrath of Khan. I've managed to sit through iirc 1-6 of the Shatner movies and Khan is such a huge spike in quality it's like it's from a different series of films. None of the others even come close to it and as Hogso says, Montalban is superb.
Anyway, back on topic...
Oh and one role which definitely should have gone to someone else (*cough* Orson Welles *cough*) was Ahab in Moby Dick.
Gregory Peck was poor in that movie, and I'm a big fan of his.
There's an absolute load of these really but a couple that stand out to me are Clint as Dirty Harry. Imagine if the original choice of Sinatra had been stuck with? Can't see the classic 'did he fire six shots or only five?' scene being quite as iconic.
Same goes for Blade Runner. That would have been a totally different movie with Dustin Hoffman (one of the original choices) instead of Ford.
