Just got into watching Game of Thrones and just remembered the Game of Thrones RPG releases next week. Man, does it ever look underwhelming. Oh well, If I happen to get my hands on it, I'll try it, but I don't plan on getting it. Looks just plain bad.

Yeah, Game of Thrones (the series) is cool, its like lord of the rings, minus magic and anything mythical, with lots and lots of Sex, Violence, Politics and Betrayal. (its brilliant)

As for the game, i still have hopes for that one. i'll wait for reviews first, but if it turns out to be solid, i might consider purchasing it. But for now i am totally fine with Monster Hunter Tri, with Dragons Dogma following in a couple of weeks. (Oh and of course i'll get Pandora's Tower after DD and MH have lost their appeal.)

 

edit: Dear americans, dont forget to give The Last Story some attention. its not perfect, and its a damn short RPG. But its a Sakaguchi title, meaning that there is some really nice attention to detail, plus a cool Story (IMHO it is quite similar to game of thrones, without evil Uberbeeings, but deeply rotten men instead. And Knights didnt get much attention in JRPGs for some time, so its a quite a refreshing experience)

 

edit:

 love that one. Uematsu for the fucking win! :D
