Editorial Review:
Amazon.co.uk Review: Enclave is an exhilarating but difficult first-person role-playing game--a gritty, up-close-and-personal Diablo meets Halo experience. The basic action of the game takes place in a dark and chaotic landscape ripped apart by the "rift"--a bottomless crevasse magically created to surround the lone city of Celenheim, and keep it protected from the dark Outlanders preparing to invade. Your first mission, the Mission of Light, will be to make sure that the Outlanders do not succeed in their attempts. As a very fun side note, when you win the game for Celenheim, you can turn around and play the game as an Outlander.
You start the game as a knight and as the levels progress, you acquire various other characters that play pivotal roles in your ability to get through each level alive. In true Dungeons and Dragons style, you prep for each level by gearing up your character and purchasing the items you think will help you stay alive. Character selection is very important since each mission has unique challenges, tends to be pretty long and is usually impossible to save in progress. This brings me to the game's only major downfall--unless you are a patient and skilled gamer, there's a good possibility that you will get frustrated by not being able to get past difficult levels within a try or two. Many of the levels need to be attempted half a dozen times or more using different character and equipment combinations to get through. It's an enjoyable challenge, but may be too much like hard work for everyone. --Sung Nicholas Kim

If you want an easy stress free game, then don't buy Enclave. If on the other hand you want a game that pushes your gaming skills to new levels, that makes you throw your controller down in disgust only to say in your next breath alright then just one more go, then this is the game for you. Tough as a badgers bottom, frustrating and difficult, but there is a real sense of achievement to be had from each new advance you make.
The game play is imaginative, non repetitive, and exhilarating.
The graphics are superbly detailed, the sound is atmospheric and the character and the weapon choices you make actually make a difference to how the game plays. I have been playing it for over a month now and I am just getting to the end ... Read More:

I'VE BEEN PLAYING GAMES FOR AROUND 25 YEARS, ENCLAVE HAS SOME OF THE FINEST GRAPHICS AND COMPULSIVE GAMEPLAY ON ANY GAME I'VE EVER PLAYED, AND I'VE PLAYED THE BEST AND WORST, THAT'S A PROMISE. YES, IT CAN GET DIFFICULT, BUT CHOOSING THE RIGHT CHARACTERS AND WEAPONS IS ALL PART OF THE TACTICS NEEDED TO COMPLETE THIS MASSIVE ADVENTURE THAT STILL TO MY MIND POSSESSESS THE FINEST AND MOST BEAUTIFUL GRAPHICS ON ANY SYSTEM I'VE COME ACROSS. IT'S SIMPLICITY REALLY DOES HELP THE PLAYER, NO GEEKY STATS OR ATTACK MOVES, JUST GET IN THERE AND HACK AWAY, OR KEEP YOUR DISTANCE AND SNIPE AWAY. EVERYTHING IS SO SMOOTH, CUT SCENES ARE AMAZING AND THEY SUBTLEY KEEP THE PLAYER INFORMED OF EVERYTHING THAT HAS HAPPENED WITHIN THE WORLD OF ENCLAVE. YOU CAN PICK THIS ... Read More:

I must say that this is most likely the most enjoyable game of this type i have ever played. The graphics are beautiful and really provide the mood, the music is outstanding...especially if you have a good sound card. The controls are very responsive and wont take too long to get to grips with. You get a variety of different classes to play with and each one requires a different playing style (after all, you would not charge into the fray with an archer would you?)
I suggest this game to anyone that enjoys action and adventure!

...The graphics are fantastic, gameplay however, terrible! I'm 15 and i play lots of games but Enclave is among the worst that i have played! Sloppy controls, no save points, indestructable enemies and the worst damage system ever. Please by all means dish out 40 notes if you want to end up breaking your Xbox! Also the storyline was confusing and if a 15yr old can't understand it, what hope do the rest of us Xbox gamers have!!!!! Far too hyped up by magazines. What were Swing smoking when they came up with this!!

Third person actioner with stunning graphics - textures and huge draw distance . You play as a good character v. bad and then when you finish you can be one of the bad guys with some variation in levels . Gameplay is mostly fighting and finding gold . This would not be too bad except it is so repetive and frustrating due to chronic controls which you cannot reconfigure and no mid level save ( unforgivable in a world with halo ). It's like the game was rushed and never game tested- still it is
very preety although it is a little bugged eg poor motion detection alllows you to kill enemies right through sold walls . Come on Microsoft where are the killer games since Halo !!!!!
