Rating:  - What an improvement
It's a great improvement over 3.5, not to say all changes were for the best. There will be naysayers who fear change and stick with 3.5 because of that.
However, the simplicity of 4e should at least cause you to consider it if you have any potential new players. It's simplified greatly, but without losing it's flare.

I would review this, but I don't have it. After preordering some time in advance, I received word that there apparently wasn't enough to fulfill my order and the delivery was pushed back into July.

Rating: - It Broke!!!
Poor quality construction. Disentegrated in my car after having left it for four hours. I live in Cincinnati, not the desert. And the mechanics are dumbing down DnD. Seems like WOW. I want to press buttons and table top.
Rating: - 4e delivers better overall gameplay
Pros: The game is MUCH more playable now, mainly because combat is speedier and more varied than it was before. Managing the availability of your powers makes combat unpredictable and fun. Also, the rules are wonderfully well organized: if you have to look for one, you can expect it to be easy to find and to be explained well (the mini illustrations in the combat section are probably the best example of this). In all, the game is far more intuitive than any previous edition, from how the rules interact ... Read More
Rating: - 3 times fun!
It's the new D&D, backing to the basics and kicking off the 3.XX wasting of money.
All that you need to play, straight and easy.
Lots of suggestions, explanations and exemples.
Try it.
