Let's face it, checking off that mission list and saving up enough cash for that new suit of armour is never going to get old. Gothic 3, indeed the entire Gothic series, is one of those games you feel a bit of a soft spot for. It's one with which you're able to overlook most of its faults entirely because it'll always been the overachieving underdog. Never mind 'that-other-RPG', if you're willing to make excuses for a meagre plot, paucity of character and a relatively scaled down role-playing experience - in itself, no bad thing as it's still huge - it's as compelling as can be surmised. At times gorgeous, at other times frustrating, it's worth persevering with just to bask in its snug atmosphere.
And the second is at Honest Gamers with an overall score of 9/10:
If you're feeling a little empty after beating Oblivion or indeed feel like you want a new dose of open-ended gaming with dialled-up challenge, then step into the world of Myrtana. Help the orc army destroy the last fortified human town or save the land's king who resides within the stone walls. Or do neither and live off the spoils of war.
