1. Review: Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance II (XBX)

   Following heel and toe in the footprints of the original, this sequel owes much of its appeal to the same spectacular presentation and compelling multiplayer options. All of the soft, coloured lighting effects that so enticingly brought the world of Baldur's Gate to life make a return appearance (and once again the camera feels comfortable and never interferes with playing the game). Likewise, plugging in a second controller and taking on the quest with a friend elevates... Read more

   A pretty good if a bit basic game, with a wonderful multiplayer option. Good fun without having to stress over complicated puzzles or stats; everything is tailored to accommodate even the newest newbie and the greatest D&D fan. The samey nature of the game may put some off, but its good swashbuckling fun and will last you a while. Read more

   The Baldur's Gate series saw its first console iteration in late 2001 when the Playstation 2 version of Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance was released. Combining the Forgotten Realms world with more Diablo -esque gameplay proved to be a success for Interplay, as the game was praised by critics, and sold well in what was a very competitive Christmas season. The game was later ported to the Xbox and Gamecube, and met further success - enough to inspire Interplay to commission a... Read more

   In late 2001, Snowblind Studios, under the direction of Black Isle Studios, developed a dungeon crawler for the PS2 (which was later released on the XBox and GC) that caught many by surprise in both how good the game both looked and played. Now, without Snowblind Studios (who is working on the soon-to-be-released Champions of Norrath ), Black Isle Studios created a sequel using the core engine from the first game but giving players more of what they wanted.

   The game are very addictive, i played and completed the game in few hours, played it with my brother in coop mode, it works and is great fun tho i don't think it would be fun to complete one more time even if you used another of the 5 characters. PS2 rules! ----Edited by user 11/03-2004 14:29 Read more

   I first played baldurs gate on the pc as a freebie. I thought it was amazing and when i got my xbox this was the first game i thought of buying. I wasnt sure wether to buy it or not and looked on amazon for some reviews. Unfortunately i did not take any notice of what they had said and bought it on a friends reccommendations. I was raring to play on it and put the disk in as soon as i got home. I was aboslutely gob smacked by the pure rubbishness of this game. Do not buy... Read more

   If you liked the first game, this is pretty much more of the same. Having 5 characters to choose from at the start is nice, and going through the game with a friend is a lot of fun. I tended to accumulate massive amounts of gold because I couldn't find anything I wanted to buy, but towards the end of the game when stuff gets more expensive I finally began to spend it. If you're looking for a fairly mindless hack-and-slash type game, this is a good one. Read more

4. A strangely muted sequel

   Fun: If you played the first Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance game either on the Xbox or the PS2, then there isn't much I need to tell you: The number of characters you can choose from has increased from three to five, and if playing in multiplayer you can still only have a maximum of two players even though the Xbox supports up to four. The next thing is something which leaves me (for a change) rather lost for words. There's no doubt that this is a genuine sequel to the... Read more

   For any one familar to baulders gate they know that it is a fantastic frachise but unfortunatly the first game on ps2 and x box was a massive dissapointment. It was extremly short and didnt really leave you much to do. This game is so much better. The 2 player version is excellent and the character devolpment is good. You will find that your always rushing in trying to get that kill before your friend. This game offers a lot of equipment choices and you will not find... Read more
