Heh, my parents just bought me The Bard's Tale for PS2, and I thought it was pretty good. I don't see why Gamespot rated it so bad. Yeah there are a couple of annoying things like the Camera angle, but overall I thought it deserved a lot better. Especially since it had the Beer song, every game should have the beer song! C'mon, and a fire-breathing rat, nothing can beat a fire-breathing rat.
Anyways, the music is good, the characters are nice and diverse, and there's a whole lot of weapons to hack and slash monsters. It's kind of like Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance, except it's like the Archer, with an axe. Anywhoo, it's definitely worth renting, and if you like it, buy it.
Oh and make sure you get your hands on the bar maid's "chest".
