Got a new computer, an Nvidia GeForce 3 or 4 video card, and a bunch of free time? Check out the reviews of Dungeon Siege and see if it looks like you might be tempted. I don’t normally play role-playing games, but Dungeon Siege is so compelling – easy to get started, beautiful graphics, fun gameplay – that I’ve buried more hours than I want to admit over the last few weeks. (Suitable for kids in my opinion – it’s hard for me to imagine that killing monsters with magic spells will corrupt a ten-year-old, but parents should know that you kill a lot of monsters.)
