I have seen many different commercials for this, and this looks like a game I want to get when it comes out( at the end of January). A third person game, like Azurik: Rise of Perithia, that uses spells and other magic! This game looks like an Xbox keeper!!

If you like The Lord Of The Rings or Harry Potter..........

This Game is full of spells and i love it.
The light ones are soooo flasshy.
the other ones are cool, I like how the enemy don't chase you to the end of the level or not it'll be devestating. I like the orbs swettish accent. The houses look rather nice. But the hard point is you can't just save your progress, you need to find a nifty mushroom ring mostly guarded by enemies. If you love magic like me rent see if it tilts you then buy it if you like it.

Nightcaster full of joy

Just picked it up and I have to say, Nightcaster is a good one. I've been having tons of fun with it. It looks great. The gameplay is fun and addictive. It plays like a console game should. I say pick it up. You won't regret it!

I really liked this game because It was different. It is
sortof like Diablo without the blood, and when I get a new
spell I get really excited.Overall this game is awesome and
I think they made it really well.

The first few times I sat down to play this game I got a bit frustrated and didn't play for long. It was tough to get used to the game play style of the game. But finally one time I really s at down and got the hang of it and the game got awesome. I love the story! The visuals are stunning and the spell look incredibly. You'll be itchoing to find th enxt spell or level up for a current spell. Imsut say the light spels are my fav. One key to game play is getting the hang of quickly switching between spells. Once you get used to the controls you'll find them nicely laid out.
My only other criticism is that because of how the spells work the final boss is rather easy to defeat.
But all in all I really enjoyed the game. You nee dto tottaly explore each level beacsue themor eyou power up the more fun the game becomes. The story kept me enthralled and coming back for more. The bosses in general we're challenging and increased nicley in difficulty.
In the few erros I did have trouble with I found myself only getting determined to kill the badies rather than getting bored. Another thing to keep in mind is that their are limited saving locations so you've got to know when to save and when to "save" the saving point for later.
All in all I LOVED this game and highly recommend it. I hpe VR1 continues the Nighcaster story as it left me itching for more as well.

Fun, much underrated.

When I was at the E3 expo in the summer, this was one of the few Xbox titles on display that was actually fun and felt like a console game. Which was suprising given that it was hidden away in a corner of the Microsoft booth. My impressions of it then was that Nightcaster isn't a totally original concept (it's a 3rd person shooter with some RPG elements thrown in), but it was a lot of fun once you got used to the controls, and it had pretty graphics as well.

Nightcaster is in the spotlight!
