Demigod Review

GameSpot is the first of the big video game websites to review Demigod, though the game's current multiplayer issues seem to have pulled the score down to a 6.5/10.
In Demigod, the moment-to-moment gameplay is relatively simple. However, the varying play styles of each demigod, as well as the numerous tactical upgrades and items, offer fulfilling strategic breadth. Nevertheless, this is an overly streamlined package that doesn't hit all of the marks it should. Newcomers to this type of gameplay will bemoan its limited single-player options; competition-focused tacticians will be frustrated by crippling connection difficulties and will long for more arenas. It's a shame that these flaws are so conspicuous, because Demigod has an addictive and rewarding foundation that should have had more (and more-functional) features built upon it.
In related news, 1UP has decided to postpone their review until the game's multiplayer issues are resolved.
