Rating: Summary: The best game I have ever seen (except for The Sims)! Review: When I firs saw this game, I thought it would be like Empire Earth of Age of Empires. I was dead wrong. This game has awesome graphics, awesome gameplay, there's challenge involved. I would consider it an awesome combination of Gauntlet Legends, Nightmare Creatures,and Quake, only with 100 times better graphics, completely costimizable players, and over 200 weapons and spells! Exploring this amazing 3-D landscape is practically just as fun as fighting the monsters. And monsters! This game has the widest assortment of ghouls and creatures I have ever seen, and killing them in engrossing 3-D fights is half the fun. Personally, I think that the people who say this game is bad should see a neurologist, because I have never seen a more engrossing game in my computer game history.
Rating: Summary: None Better Review: Simply put, this is the best game out. There are some great games schedule to come out soon, but until then, this is the by far the best. The game has countless monsters, treasures and graphics. Awesome graphics. Easy to use interface. I haven't encountered a single bug!!! Extra testing demanded by Microsoft to meet X-Box requirements definitely paid off. The only beef is that the game is somewhat linear. Unlike Baldors Gate or Might and Magic, there is basically only one way to go. Still an excellent game. Hats off to Gas Powered Studios and Microsoft.
Rating: Summary: Very nice game Review: This game is great! it has HUGE maps and you only have to load the whole thing once then you never have to see a loading screen again. This game has lots of armor, weapons, and spells. This is a GREAT game for anyone going from a newbie to RPGs to the most experienced RPGer out there. This game is definatly a great buy. Everyone should have one of these in there homes. The multiplayer is also sweet becuase you can hook up with your friends or enemys. you can either go PvP (player vs. player) or Teams. This is no waste of money!
Rating: Summary: This games rules!!!!!!!! Review: It is basically Diablo 2 in 3d. So if u like diablo u will love this game. Unlike in Diablo u can have a party with up to 8 people or 7 people and 1 mule or 6 people and 2 mules etc. And theres more custimization in DS.I just beat the game on easy it took me about 25 hours and i didnt explore every single dungeon i saw so its a fairly long game. And if u r playing on normal or hard and u cant get past a certain place u can change the diffuculty while u r playing.There r 3 multipayer worlds the first is for people that just beat the game on single player and want to go online for more quests. The 2nd is for newbies who just got the game and want to go online right away and the 3rd almost all dungeon (70 percent). Thats about all i know about the game.
Rating: Summary: A wonderful change of pace. Review: I downloaded the demo version of the game, and played it through. I LOVE it. I fully intend upon buying it. It has wonderful graphics, and lots of options normally unheard of. Like....you have a character that is a fighter.....you can get a spellbook, fill it with spells, and BAM....you are now a mage. No penalties, and you can always switch back. Not only that, but you can work multiple skills at different times in order to raise your stats, and you don't get slapped with a penalty for switching back and forth. Items and spells normally have to be found, you aren't handed them on a silver platter, and your health and mana regenerate naturally....which is great. And the real time AI of the monsters are very challenging, and if they aren't....bump up the difficulty and there you go!! I'm very impressed. After EverQuest, DAoC, Asheron's Call, BG2 and all of it's clones, and Diablo 2....this game is a BREATH OF FRESH AIR. Now if only NeverWinter Nights would hurry up and come out....LOL!!
Rating: Summary: Beautiful interface, boring game Review: This game has one of the most elegant and beautiful interfaces I have ever seen. Perhaps the best the role-playing industry has ever seen. Unfortunately, the game is boring. I can't believe that so much work went into the interface of a game that is so bad. Just look at a screen shot and pass this game over. It is way overpriced and destined for the bargain bin.
Rating: Summary: I hate, hate, hate, hate, hated this game Review: This is is a game from a LONG line of diablo clones. The basics of the game are just a rip-off from the diablo system. The only significant difference is the addition of quite good graphics. Unfortunatly this is one of the most uninteresting games i've ever played. I pretty much exclusivly play rpgs and i was just totally bored about 10 minutes into this game. The plot is pretty much just meeting some schmuck on the road and he tells you something to do, so you go do it, and kill things along the way. I mean come on...that was pretty fun at first but after Diablo, Diablo 2, and the numerous clones they spawned; that sort of thing has kind of gotten old. You can only play as a human character and theres very few modifications you can do to your characters looks (and all of those modifications are abhorantly cheesy looking). The advancement system is pretty simple, and i think thats why its boring. If you want you character to be good in melee weapons; then you smash things with a sword. Want an archer? shoot things with a bow then. Want character who can smash and shoot? then smash things with a sword half of the time and shoot with a bow the other half. But the thing that really made me hate this game was the camera angles. They jammed so many stupid trees and caves and mountains into the screen that you cant see ANYTHING. you have to spend about a minute moving your camera around before you can see anything, giving yourself an epileptic seizure in the process. I found it easist just to play the game completly in the "mega-map" mode. In that mode all the silly graphics dont get into your way and you can actually see where you're going. But of course in the map mode you reduce the game to commanding a dot around and telling it to kill things. The game did suprise me on how smoothly it ran. Usually microsoft games give me alot of trouble with choppy graphics and game crashes. But this one never crashed and was plesently smooth and fast. Figures that the only game they make the runs smooth is the one i'm not interesting in playing... All in all if you're up for a diablo clone i'd recommend throne of darkness, forget about this waste of 1 gigabyte. On the up side it may make a good game for children...
Rating: Summary: graphic ok but very boring Review: when i first started the game,i was impressed by graphic. However, after playing the game about 6-7hours it became really boring, I just did same thing, just follow the road, kill monster,and pick up items. This game is so linear, i don't think this is a good role playing game. Somebody compare this game with Diablo2. That's like insulting Diablo2 game. I am going to play Hero of Might Magic4 which is really great game, until i get the warcraft3. I can't wait to get the warcaft3........... PS:i am not good at English so it may my grammar and spelling is incorrect
Rating: Summary: addictive goodness Review: as a dungeon crawler it's less than original and light on storyline and a far cry from r.p.g purity,but what it does so well is borrow the best elements from everything and succinctly meld it into pure intuitive and fun game play...it plays much like a diablo if it were a squad/team game, the versatile 3d camera work angles is remiscent of the myth series games, and within the map view and team based play very remiscent of baldur's gate...the 3d graphics and animation should drop your jaw to the floor if you have a system that can run the game with all graphics and audio options maxed out...the manual is very brief, but it's quite okay because the game interface is incredibly intuitive and the learning curve is about 30 minutes...there are a few minor graphics glitches and sound effects are sometimes laughable (repetitive skeleton bones shattering)...the most important tip is to save very often and also remember to delete old files when possible as each save takes about 1 mb of hdd space...dying is a pain ... and the pack mule comes in handy, but still need more space for the stuff...regardless of the shortcomings of this game...you must buy this and play it as soon as possible...it's simply the most fun and addictive game that i ever played...hours feel like a blink of an eye while playing this game...
Rating: Summary: Good graphics but boring Review: This game has great graphics, but I expected the fighting sequences to be more exciting. It reminds me of Gauntlet Legends in where you keep killing horde after horde of monsters. It got very boring after a while. The graphics are great, but I don't recommend buying it.
