*Looks at all reviews* I thought the idea of star ratings is that they go from 0-5, not just... 5... all the time ;o

Didn't I make the ratings broad enough? It is pretty obvious when you review something that is bad and I could easily give it a bad rating but at least for these first three things, they seem to be very well made and designed. I'm sure I'll run into and review some nasty products.

Tomorrow should be the big release day. Can't wait to give it a try.
It's that time of year again. I need a new holiday avatar... Is there anyone up to the challenge?

Yep, that is the planned release date. It is interesting to note that they just packaged a version for review purposes and sent it out only on Friday, which is only about 4 days before the release!

Well I bought it, but it's not running properly on my 4700...when I tap on anything in the game the desktop appears...it's like the game can't be on top...

That's strange. It's running fine on my e805. Where did you install it? How much free memory do you have? Are you running SE_VGA or something similar?

It runs fine on my hx4700 also (obviously, since I wrote a review). I have had a similar problem with other games, though.

I just started playing today during my lunch hour. So far, it's the best RPG in terms of playability since EverQuest. I have tried a lot of other RPGs, namely Legacy and The Green Myste and have found that the first person orientation of each of those games makes it impossible for me to navigate the maps. The third person orientation of Arvale, together with the zoom out capability, makes navigation much easier. I will definitely play this game to its conclusion. The others, sadly, never made it very far before I gave up and uninstalled them. Also, posters on other sites have complained about not having landscape orientation. I actually prefer the normal orientation. It's much more intuitive to me.

I wish I had an answer on this for you but it sounds like you have tried everything. I hope they can come up with a solution for you.
