 Rating: - Balder's gate in a handheld! What's not to like?! Well...To preface, I'm a big fan of the Baldur's Gate series on PC. The only one I haven't played is Icewind Dale 2. I recently got a GBA and wanted to play some BG on it. I'm just starting Act 2 as an archer but I think I have a good idea for how the game is overall. I must say it's pretty well done, if you've played any other BG games you'll recognize the isometric view of your character (you only control one character, not a party, although you interface with a variety of NPC's). You ...

Plus, the limited buttons make spells hard to use. Rating: - Fun, to a pointThis is a game that is definitely all about the hack and slash. Everything else, including story, takes a backseat. The real development and appeal lies in the real time combat that dominates the game, and actually proves to be suprisingly fun. One of my absolute favorite aspects to the Baldur's Gate games (particularly the computer version) is the atmosphere; and I believe this game is no less, though on a considerably smaller scale. The various worlds and areas explored aren't large, ... Read More Rating: - Pretty Disappointed.This game was way too easy and short. I had this game for three days and beat it already. There wasn't much of a challenge to the game at all--which was ok, because then I didn't get stuck anywhere--but it was a little too easy. The real problem I had with this game is that it only took me about ten hours to complete it. The ending was sudden and abrupt. I thought that I was about half-way through the game--but then it ended. In my opinion, for $25 or $30, the game should last a while. Rating: - Good gameGood RPG game. As someone already said, they give you way too many magic jars. The game play is pretty impressive, but there isn't really too much strategy involved. It's sort of a RTG game disguised as an RPG. And it's progressive so once you move from one stage to the next there's no going back to talk to everyone. All in all, it will keep you entertained, but it get's a little repetitive once you figure out that there's one basic strategy you need to kill EVERY guy. |
