Champions of Norrath : Realms of EverQuest

 

 

When Is It Being Released?

26th March 2004

 

What's it About?

The game starts tamely enough with the hackneyed fantasy plotline of some orcs and goblins hassling an Elven village, and you set out to give 'em "what for". But like all good works of high fantasy (books, films or games), CoN soon unveils stunning backdrops to the flashing swordplay, whizzing arrows and spectacular spells. Explore giant ant hills, fields of molten lava, sun-drenched desert islands and even the ocean floor, complete with skeleton pirates and inquisitive fish. Whether you're an EQ tourist keen to see the tree-top city of Faydwer and the sinkhole of Kunark, or you're completely new to Norrath, you'll be dazzled by the hugely varied locations.

 

Is It Any Good?

Bonuses include the fact that you can play 4 player co-op missions, or indeed play against each other (yay!). The only bad thing I can see about this is that it is over packed with mediocre things,and you don't have time to concentrate or appreciate the fantastic back drops etc...
