Guest Report post Posted March 30, 2002 Has anyone played Gauntlet Legends: Dark Legacy? Is it anything like the original, and is it worth buying or just a rental? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest kkktookmybabyaway Report post Posted March 30, 2002 I have GL:DL for PS2. It was the first game I got last May. I'm not much of a reviewer, so forgive me if this seems shoddy. What I like -- All the worlds from the Arcade version are in this one, even another extra board or two. Multi-player is an experience, but without the threat of losing $$$ over playing poorly, it takes some of the edge out of it. What I didn't like -- The graphics aren't too detailed, due to the TV screen's size. For some reason, the replay value isn't as strong as when I played it endlessly in the Arcade. Overall: Seeing how it's been out in the market for a while now, you could probably get GL:DL at a reasonable price. Bite the financial bullet and get it for those nights you and several buddies want to just kill a bunch of bad guys while boozing it up. Multi-tap is strongly reccommended, although having 4 characters running around at once can get cumbersome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Man in Blak Report post Posted March 30, 2002 Call it strange, but I think that the Gauntlet Legends series has gotten steadily worse with each port to a console. The first one on N64 was pretty killer, the Dreamcast one was a little "blah", and, personally, Dark Legacy was pretty shoddy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted March 31, 2002 I enjoyed Dark Legacy quite a bit. While I was a huge mark for the old school Gauntlet titles, I wasn't too fond of the arcade update the series saw a few years ago, and I didn't give the ports much of a look. One day I just decided I would give the series another chance though, and so I bought DL. I had some fun with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
