    Tags: I of the Dragon

    The demo of <a href=http://www.i-dragon.com>I of the Dragon</a> is finally <a href=http://www.i-dragon.com/demo_e.htm>here</a>, if anyone cares. Just to remind you, the game puts in the role of a young and inexperienced dragon. As expected, as time goes by and the pile of corpses of your defeated enemies grows, so do your skills and uber abilities.
    <br>
    <br>
    <blockquote> At the beginning of the game the player has the choice of three dragons: Annoth The Fire Breather, Barroth the magician and Morrogh The Necromancer. All three are different and all three have their own ways of dealing with the great many adversaries you will meet. You also develop the dragon's combat abilities throughout the game to deal with the increasingly tough and resilient enemies, until you meet and conquer Skarborr himself.
    <br>
    <br>
    That is not all, you will also need to control other characters and complete important tasks on the path to overall victory: a warlord and his steed on a potentially fatal fact finding mission, the thoroughly competent hunter on a mission of delicate accuracy and selective killing and the three huge creatures and their riders in an attempt to destroy magical generators keeping the dragons away from the next big fight.</blockquote>

    A dragon who is also a necromancer, huh? Well, this is something you definitely don't see everyday.

    You, sir, are a liar! Unless you came from the future!!! What else have you seen there? Is Interplay finally dead or did Infogrames bought this name as well? Did Bio managed to release an actual role-playing game after all? Tell us your wondrous stories!

    Ok, I did some research (saw another news post about purely by accident) and it turned out that this is an updated demo. What exactly was updated and why is unknown at this point. So I guess you are not from the future. :(

    So in other words you don't want the scores from the NCAA Final Four?
