Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance takes you into the world of Dungeons and Dragons in a thrilling new action game!
Amazon.com Review:
The Baldur's Gate series redefined and reinvigorated the PC role-playingscene, and now Interplay brings it to the PlayStation2. Don't be fooled,however. This isn't a traditional role-playing game, but rather a fun,wall-to-wall action hack 'n' slash adventure in the mold carved byGauntlet and the storiedDiablo games--one thatnonetheless conforms to the Advanced Dungeons & Dragons Third Edition rule set.
Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance casts you as one of three basic characters:an elf sorceress, a human archer, or a dwarf fighter. From there, you're setfree inside a huge Dungeons & Dragons world replete with dungeons, forests, icecaves, and much more. Naturally, it's all filled to the brim with horriblemonsters, wicked traps, treasures, and fabled magical weapons. As you go, you'reconstantly rewarded with new weaponry, new monsters to fight, and experiencepoints you can put into your character stats to grow even more powerful. You canswap equipment in an inventory 'paper doll' screen; those changes will bereflected in your onscreen character, so you'll start with simple weapons and adrab appearance, and you'll end up a big, mean superhero at the conclusion.
The graphics are simply wonderful, and the controls are accurate, responsive,and fun to use--which is necessary for the constant hacking and slashingrequired. The game is all the more fun when you recruit a buddy and play thegame in cooperative mode. --Bob Andrews
Pros: - Fast, furious fun with great graphics
- It's even more fun with a friend!
Cons: - Might disappoint PC Baldur's Gate fans looking for something deeper

Customer Reviews Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Fun Co-op, but buggy gameplay.
Great fun with a friend, but we experienced some fatal programming errors (resulting in the need for restart of the entire game).
Rating:  - One of the best to ever come out for PS2...
One of the best to ever come out for PS2 or any system for that matter.The gameplay and graphics are above most games coming out now for the PS2.If your into action RPG's like myself, this is the grand-daddy of them all for a console.What would have made "BG:DA" perfect would have been the ability to custom make a character, and making the game longer would have helped as well.The game is a perfect balance being not too complex nor being too simplistic.BG:DA 2 and Champions of Norrath 1&2 ...

Rating: - Don't believe the nay sayers, it's great!
This may be mindless game play to some, but it's mindless game play at it's best!I didn't see the point in writing a review, but after reading some of the gripes, I had to chime in.
1.The game isn't much of an RPG- who cares... you get to run around and kill people.The action cuts right to the chase, and there are always enemies coming at you.I don't see how that can get boring.
2. The game is repetetive, hack and slash... Not entirely true.The enemies change, and battles get harder ... Read More
Rating: - major pain
I have purchased this game twice and have run into the same glitch in the middle. It starts off really fun, gets you hooked then freezes right in the middle. I know it's an old game but come on. Buyers beware
Rating: - Baldurs gate Rocks!
Pros: great grapics, great sound, fun to play, simple to learn.
a true classic game for the PS2 in Diablo Fashion
Cons: only one i can even think of is the fact that if you play this you WILL want part 2 which is a little costly but if you buy or own this be sure to buy Baldurs Gate Dark Alliance 2 (PS2)
its an adventure spanning 3 chapters (yes that may seem short but the game can take from 10 hours to several days to beat depending on if you play little here and there or blow through it ... Read More
