Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance 2 for Xbox Reviews by Gamers

This game is downright awesome. If you like BG1, you will love this title. Awesome graphics, great gameplay.....very similar style to Champions of Norrath series....
Buy It!
Game On!

Well i just got this game again and played with my friend. For those of you who give this a one because you beat it in 30 minutes (impossible unless you use the area cheat) or say there is only one good character (simply minded fools) then you havent played this game. This is a Hack/Slash game and it is the sequel to B.G I so if you thought that was a bad game stop playing. The story is a vampire is trying to resurrect the onyx tower to use it for evil, i mean why not that makes sense. so through a series of events you meet up with the side who is trying to claim the tower for good. then you end up fighting in another dimension of the world on top of the onyx tower. Pretty much like the first one but there are more people and "some" side quest. Everyone has a person (except Dorin the Barbian) that they can give money to to get XP. then the same person gives them a quest to earn new magic. i like to be the human Barb. since its always fun to go head first into a battle. but i have replayed it several times with each character to see how it is. it takes a little while to get the people with a lot of magic good but once they are there they are GODS. calling down fire with the cleric is always fun. but the best character to start is the one you like the most. although the more magic the person is the less armor they are able to wear ;)
