    The game doesn't look bad, but it doesn't look good enough for an action game whose major draw is its audiovisual presentation.

    A tendency to lose track of your player amongst hordes of slathering foes and a constantly changing camera spoils any potential fun ... leaving the whole package somewhat less than we were hoping for. [Dec 2003, p.124]

It easily hits the hights of Champions of Norath and BG Dark Alliance 1, Bards Tale etc and way better than Dark Alliance 2 IMO. It has great combat animations, and some of the most ballaced and well implented classes and power systems of all the games.. The camera is a realtreat aswell letting you zoom right in and out.. The only thing I would wish was a bit better is the visuals..Environments are a little bland and the character models a but basic..The FMV Cutscenes make up for this a bit however, with some badarse cinematic, especially the introduction of boss monsters.. Seeing this version of a Beholder had me thinking fuk yeah, this is sick. This is definently a must play , especially if you liked the previously mentioned games.… Full Review »

Maybe not as fun by yourself, but at least worth the rental with some friends. I don't know what games(TM) is talking about, the camera never ever moves unless you tell it to, and is the same system found in any other game like this. Maybe they had a broken controller or sucked at the game.… Full Review »
