Invalid CD Key

Several people including myself are unable to play online using the expansion pack. A large number of the CD keys for the expansion sent out with the gold edition do not work. It is a known and reported error but no remedy is in place to correct it. Exchanging for a new game may or may not work as they seem to have sent them out in batches where either the whole delivery batch works or none of them do.

Rancyd is correct. THQ has confirmed that that CD Key for the Immortal Throne game will not work online. You can install the original version and the expansion but you will not be able to play the expansion online. If you don't plan to play online then the game will work fine for you.

THQ's solution to this is to mail them your copy of the game and they will send you a new game. So basically add another $5 and a few weeks to your game if you wish to do this.

I have returned the game to the store where I bought it 3 times! They gave me a new copy each time and none of them have worked. I've been talking to people from California to Florida and everyone is having the same problem. I have yet to talk to someone with a Gold version that works. I'm not sure I believe the 'batch' excuse or not.

All in all, the game is great but THQ's customer support is quite lacking.

Crummy graphics support.

Just purchased the gold edition. Installed it and can't run the darn thing as it gives me graphics engine errors this running on a brand new PC which runs UT3 at the highest setting along with Crysis (over 3gigs of RAM, Nvidia GTX, windows XP...latest drivers). So I did some search online and apparently graphics issues are rampant with this game. I am out of luck since I can't return the game and re-installing anything is out of the question just to run one game.

Oh, I also found out there being a list of cards this game doesn't support along with onboard ones (not for laptops).

Very disappointed.

Titan Quest: The Sleeper hit

Great game. Huge replay value. Create a Spirit/Nature character and find an item that a Warfare/Defense character would love? There is a transfer vendor who moves items from character to character quickly and easily. Accidentally spend a skill point on something you hate to use? A merchant can untrain it for you for a reasonable fee. Includes nine completely unique skill sets (Nature, Storm, Earth, Defense, Warfare, Rogue, Hunter, Spirit, and Dream). Pick two skill sets to determine your class. Pure genius. This game has everything that Diablo 2 missed. Yes, I said it. Diablo 2 has faults.

Only complaint: Ironforge isn't putting out more patches for Titan Quest. I want more content. This game rocks.

I am not much on games usually. My husband wanted to try it out as it sounded interesting. It is as much fun to watch him play as it is for me to play myself. Creating characters with different attributes and combinations is spiffy. Even for the novice player, it is not very hard to pick up the concepts of staying alive and moving forward. I have a terrible sense of direction so the map is a lovely thing to have so I don't spend all day wandering about and retracing my steps. The game is addicting so it helps to keep a clock handy. We don't play online with others so I cannot speak to that. I do like this one tho.

Great stress relieving Action-RPG

The game is billed as an action-RPG. The number of NPC's is limited, the game is relatively linear, save some sidequests that are optional but not exactly secret since every NPC with something important to say has an exclamation point above their head. You start the game as a single hero (or heroine as is my preference) with nothing but the tunic on your back. You only get to chose male or female, no races, classes, or even differing appearances (except your tunic color). The reason I gave it four stars for an above average game is the beautifully rendered ancient worlds. If you love ancient history this game is even more fun, but even if you don't, the graphics are great. Also they have a Mastery system that is innovative and allows you to choose two separate Masteries (second at level 8) to customize and diversify your character. You can use many different weapons and are not restricted based on your Mastery but rather your attributes, (a weakling will not be wearing heavy armor, etc.) This game is all action, there is no running errands around town for this guy to get that information etc. which happens often in RPGs (I love that kind too, don't get me wrong!). You go out, kill lots (lots, seriously) of enemies, build up nice and quickly, then talk to some guys, then go out and kill some more. You can find tons of items, some ordinary, some magical, some rare and some legendary. You also can make artifacts by collecting ingredients and recipes and taking them to an enchanter.
A few more pluses, some Mastery skills allow for summoned "pets" (wolves, elementals, etc.) to help you; skill points foolishly spent can be reclaimed and reallocated with the help of a mystic and some cash. If your inventory gets a little full and you don't want to sell certain items there is a helpful caravan driver where you can store stuff and buy more room if needed. I am a fan games like Baldurs' Gate, Neverwinter Nights, etc. so this game was a departure from that more in depth style of RPG, but I still found it fun and the price was right so I would definitely recommend it for some stress-relieving hacking action.

Try it for yourself

I generally dislike RPG's but this one has been hard to take a break from. It's easy to play, has fun bad guys and great music and sounds. Check your system requirements before buying the game so you won't have troubles like a few other reviewers. I think if they had had a chance to just play the game, their reviews would be much different. Enjoy!

Great Game

Titan Quest is a great game, and i am having a wonderful time completing it. It keeps you guessing as to what is going to happen next. The graphics are great, the cinamea sequences are smooth.
My only problem is that whomever created this game put too many bug or bug like creatures in this.
Looking forward to completing the whole game.

If you like Diablo then you'll enjoy this.

Basically [...] get a game and the expansion that were both originally $30. It's a lot like Diablo only with a Greek Mythology theme. The cinema is good and the environments are much sharper and more detailed then Diablo 2. So if you like hack and slash RPGs then this is a great game to pick up. Also I have a 4-5 year old computer that runs TQ just fine with only a few moments of lag.

For those who want to play Diablo, without playing Diablo 1 or 2.

Do you find it unfair to rate a game a 1 just because your computer failed to run it? I do. So disregard the 1 star ratings. Now is this game any good. Let's get one thing straight; if you loved the Diablo series you WILL love this game. Ok that part is out of the way. This game offers 8 character masteries, but they shouldn't be considered classes. reason being that at lvl 2 you choose one of eight masteries and at level 8 you choose another one of the 7 remaing masteries. These two masteries together decide you class. This little addition to this game makes the replay value extremelty high.

There are three difficulties just like in Diablo 2. You have to play and beat the game on normal in order to unlock epic difficulty and then do the same to unlock the hardest diffilculty. You keep all your items and level when you move to the next difficulty. If you create a new character you have to start from the easiest difficulty all over again. The game will last you about 40 hours on each difficulty (with the expansion). So if you decide to play throughout every difficulty, you are looking at about 120 hours of gameplay time. if you fall in love with this game as I have, you will create a new character and do it all over again. Yes, it's the new Diablo. Yes it is great. If you are waiting for Diablo 3 and have never tried this game, go out and buy it NOW!
