My Gaming name is Sgt Cougar, my real name is not relevant for this site. I am a husband, a father, and a gamer. I created this site for those with shared interests and responsibilities.
I only own the Xbox 360 system and love it. I look forward to the release of “Project: Natal” to include everything I liked about the Nintendo Wii on the system that I own now. I enjoy all types of games but seem to be in a FPS and RPG phase right now.

Picked this up and already spent 3 nights till 1am and about 15 hrs. Fun, adictive, downtime game. Just one more door, just one more goblin…lol…you will lose some hrs on this one.
Oh yea…I know what you mean. I think I’m now in the second level getting into the ice caves and yes…one more door, one more goblin, one more treasure…what do you mean I have been playing for two hours! Any luck beating the Yetti yet? I am using the assassin and even though long term he can be quite powerful, his short term performance is lacking.
No body else on this game huh. I’m working on level 16 with my assassin. I want to give up on him but the level 50 spell looks pretty awesome. All purple jems cause +2 damage.

@ Cougar: u’d better be glad I haven’t picked this one up. I’d have to make another wizard like in the 1st edition and beat you up all over the place. I think I made you stop playing the multiplayer in that one didn’t I? lol. couldn’t beat me!
First off I stopped playing the first one with you because you started becoming arrogant and kept referring to yourself in the third person. It was becoming too much! I think I stopped the first one because I lost my mine character in between Xbox’s when they were not transferring licenses.
You should at least check out the demo they got rid of collecting purple stars for experience and gold for cash. You now get cash and rare items by looting treasure boxes. Experience is rewarded after every battle. They still have the +100xp for heroic efforts.
They now have action jems (iron clad fist) as you collect those you can use your weapon or shield to stab your opponent or increase your defense without having to use mana. If the board locks up and does the mana drain you still keep your actions points.
I am not that far into the game and have not seen if you still forge weapons. I don’t think you can because you collect a lot of resources that go to upgrading weapons and armor. If you liked the first one you will love the second. I have an assassin on level 16, it is a weaker character in the beginning but has the potential to be bad ass if I can make it to level 50. I also have a couple other characters on level 6 as I tried them all out. As always the magician is weak in the beginning but with the right experience and spells they can control the board.

I enjoyed the first one quite a bit, but I own it for the DS. I’d pick this one up for the DS as well since I like to do more of my casual gaming on it or the iPhone.
Glad to hear I’m not the only one moving pieces around in my dreams. I put in another hour or so last night. I’m at the verge of hitting level 20. My character is shaping up but level 50 is still along way off. I’m not quire sure where I am at there are lots of goblins and some mentions of shadows? Tons of battles ahead of me and I still cannot beat the yeti quest you pick up early in the game.
I have tried to get online but can never find a game. Hitman and I are going to have to set up a meeting time to try it out.
I think I’m on lvl 23. I got access to the catacombs but I’m trying to finish some of the side missions. Still can’t beat the yetti which is pissing me off. If you want to change your players name I thin you can only do that at the time of selecting a new hero.
