The first is the [url=http://www.gamerankings.com/itemranking ... 7:gachtg75]Neverwinter Nights 2 Review at Game Rankings[/url:gachtg75]. And it might sound like a tired song-and-dance by now, but it’s saying basically the same as the other one with being mostly positive with a few critical points. A decent read even if the ridiculously small column with text makes it a bit of a headache. If ends with this:
[quote:gachtg75][i:gachtg75]Neverwinter Nights 1[/i:gachtg75] spawned a colossal number of superb add-ons, community-developed and official, that expanded its lifespan many, many times beyond the content that came in the retail box. There's no reason to think this one will be worse off - quite the opposite, if anything. The only thing that's missing is a "dungeon master" interface for players to control and manage the play experience of others, but that's coming.
If the focus of the first Neverwinter Nights left you cold, or if the recent dearth of classic-style role-playing games is getting you down, NWN2 is the cure. It's no Baldur's Gate II, nor is it a Planescape: Torment, but the way things are going it's the closest we're likely to get this century. As to what the vast Neverwinter Nights community will find to do with the toolkit, and how the multiplayer takes off, time will tell, but even if your interest is just in vanilla RPG epics you'll be well served by NWN2. In other words, just buy it already.

The next review is the [url=http://www.gamesradar.com/us/pc/game/re ... 9:gachtg75]Neverwinter Nights 2 Review at Games Radar[/url:gachtg75]. This seems to be a fairly brief review spread over several pages, seeming to focus more on displaying graphics. I also couldn’t really pick up any tone of negativity in the review, but that’s not that surprising considering the briefness and most reviews being quite positive. It concludes with the following:
[quote:gachtg75]Is [i:gachtg75]Neverwinter Nights 2[/i:gachtg75] the perfect RPG? The good and bad news is that the answer to that question hasn't actually been written yet. Like the original [i:gachtg75]Neverwinter[/i:gachtg75], we are bracing for an avalanche of user-created content that will become freely available for co-operative multiplayer adventures everywhere. [i:gachtg75]NWN2[/i:gachtg75] ships with the same incredibly powerful toolset that the game designers used to create the core game. A legion of fans is ready to port over the content they created for the original game into [i:gachtg75]NWN2[/i:gachtg75]'s new engine - and an incredible amount of grade A content will soon await.
But even for now, the amazing single player installation improves on the original game in nearly every way imaginable - without breaking anything what has gone before. Even for players who have never hurled a 20-sided die in anger, [i:gachtg75]Neverwinter Nights 2[/i:gachtg75] is not to be missed.

I’ll see about posting more reviews as I come across them, but it might take a few days. If everything goes according to plan I’ll have little time to read reviews this weekend.

Anyway, enjoy the read.
