Tom Clancys Endwar

To get the most out of the experience, you’ll need to plug in a headset. To order your units about, you issue a series of preset commands by holding down the space bar and speaking your directive into the microphone. This runs the gamut from attacking enemy squads (“Unit two, attack hostile four”) and bringing in reinforcements when they are available (“Deploy gunships”) to centering your view on a particular group (“Unit three, camera”) and ordering special attacks (“Air strike, hostile six”). There are limited possibilities, so don’t expect to plan out multiple waypoints or set up tank patrols. Nor can you rely completely on the microphone–at least, not if you intend to be competitive. Actions like garrisoning infantry in a building or ordering your units to unleash special attacks require some key presses, so there is a bit of light micromanagement in this regard.

Dungeon Siege 2 – Broken World Expansion

Dungeon Siege II: Broken World, an introduction.
Whilst hack ‘n’ slash RPGs have always been tremendously popular, quality titles have been few and far between. When you think about it this is really surprising as the most popular title in the genre, Diablo, doesn’t make an appearance all that often. In fact it’s still not confirmed that a third title in the series will be released (although we, like most fans of the series, strongly suspect there will be a third title in the series at some point). Fans of such games have had to rely on other titles to get their hack ‘n’ slash thrills and it’s fair to say that Dungeon Siege (and its sequel) is one of the more successful games in the genre. Whilst Dungeon Siege II wasn’t as impressive as the original Dungeon Siege, it was still an enjoyable game and fans will have been waiting patiently for an expansion pack which is exactly what we have in Dungeon Siege II: Broken World.
