The First 30 Minutes of Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning (VIDEO)
Our new video series takes a look at what you can expect from your favorite games when you first pop them into your Xbox 360. In this edition, join OXM editors Ryan McCaffrey and Kevin Smith as we play through and discuss the first half-hour of the upcoming big-world fantasy role-playing game, Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning.
Do we describe how the game plays? Yes. Do we crack jokes? Definitely. Does Ryan have to stop awkwardly in the middle of the video and invert his controls? Uh...maybe. Tune in and find out, and let us know what you think of the video in the comments section below!
UPDATE: Don't miss a pair of developer-walkthrough videos over on our sister site, GamesRadar!

Glad to see a promising new RPG series on the horizon. With all the A list talent behind this game it will probably be a strong contender in the realm of top notch RPG's. Now if only XBox could loosen its regulations a bit to allow some MMO's on their service : )

I predict that will happen with the next-generation Xbox. There's just too much money to be made in the MMO space...Then again, I said that back in the Xbox 1 days, too, and look how many MMOs we got (hint: less than two, and none developed specifically for 360).

Just wanted to take the time and let you all know that you are doing a great job with this site! I've been a fan of the podcast for years and I now check the site daily. You are great at putting up stories, videos, and all forms of content that I do not see on other gaming sites that I visit daily as well. Keep up the good work and kudos!

Really?? This game cannot even pray to hold a candle to Skyrim. Not to say its not cool the further you get into it, but this video doesn't do it. Looks a lot like fable though.
