    Yet another BGII: Throne of Bhaal review is up, this time over at GameZone. The Shadows of Amn expansion receives a score of 9.3, with the highest marks for Difficulty, Sound, and Gameplay. Here's some of what the reviewer had to say:

    Difficulty: 9.5
    From novice to insane, this program is a challenge in any of the five levels you choose play it at. The battle is intense and you will find, if not careful, that an ally can be turned into an enemy with just the touch of a nasty little spell.

    Concept: 8.5
    This is the final chapter, and is written on a grand scale. You will hunger for more after playing this game.

    Multiplayer: 8
    Like its predecessor, this game supports multiplayer gaming. You can form a party for venturing about, or you assign all the slots to yourself, and create your own specialized party.

    Overall: 9.3
    A wonderful ending to a terrific title, Throne of Bhaal has all the elements of a great RPG. The battle can be halted so you have time to think and coordinate attacks, or to drink a potion to heal, but that is to the player’s benefit. If not for that little bit of respite, you could be easily overwhelmed. This is a great sequel. It is too bad it is the final chapter, however, it does set the table for bigger and better things from Black Isle and Bioware.
