User Rating: 7 | Gauntlet: Dark Legacy PS2
By Habast | Review Date:
A remake of the classic Gauntlet Legends, Dark Legacy adds more characters and worlds, adding a lot to the gameplay.

You choose between a cast of heroes and embark on a journey to defeat Skorne and free the realms from his influence.

As your character progresses you gain new abilities and titles and you're appearance continues to change as you level up (every 10 levels, I believe).

The combat isn't very intricate, but it's fun. Especially on multiplayer.

The Good
*4-player co-op
*Lots of characters
*Pretty good world variation to keep it interesting
*Boss fights are pretty epic
*Leveling your character is fun

The Bad
*The graphics are pretty bad, but the game's good enough that you won't really notice

The Just Plain Ugly
*Don't expect to have much fun in single player.

Graphics: 5
Gameplay: 8
Sound: "Red Warrior needs food badly!" (7)
Story: 6.5
Multiplayer: 8.5
Replayability: 8.5
Overall: Don't knock it till you try it. (7.25)
