   In the end, was Prey worth the wait? And the answer to that is yes, although the game is lacking a deeper online game, the single player manages to make up for it with a very good story and good solid action. For those 360 owners looking for a good solid FPS for their console, I would highly recommend checking out Prey. Read more

   So, after all this, what makes COF so special? Isn’t it still just a repetitive dungeon crawl with character upgrades to manage, attribute points to distribute, monster after monster to kill (although using some strategy), items to collect and discard, quest to complete, leveling up to attend to and always one more dungeon level to descend to? Absolutely. And if that whets your appetite you owe it to yourself to try COF. Fans of BG will feel right at home and new... Read more

   When a little known studio named Snowblind combined the addictive nature of Diablo -style hack-n-slash gameplay with the mythology from Dungeons and Dragons' Forgotten Realms series (which also spawned the Baldur's Gate games on the PC), the only thing anyone could really comment on was the water. This is in no way a reflection on the game, since it still ranks as one of the best of the PS2s early line-up, but the water just looked that good. Snowblind has since moved... Read more

   Champions of Norrath ( CoN ) places a player smack dab into the middle of familiar hack and slash RPG territory. CoN looks and feels like the Baldur’s Gate: Dark Alliance series, but CoN elevates the gameplay to a compelling level in graphically stunning outdoor settings and randomly-generated dungeons. Expect to spend more time to finish this game than normally required for an action RPG, for there are 50 quest oriented levels that need exploring and conquering. The... Read more

   From the creators of Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance comes this new adventure set in the Everquest universe. The graphics are really quite impressive in this game with superb use of lighting and rich textures. The characters are very well detailed and animated; the ability to zoom in and view your character in their new suit of armour you have just equipped is also a neat touch. There is only an occasional frame rate drop when the screen is full of enemies which whilst... Read more

2. Video game reviews: Champions of Norrath (PS2)

   Overall the game is very fun and playing through it multiple times as different races puts its replay quality quite high. If you have friends the multi-player aspect is very good as well and much more enjoyable than the Balders's Gate games. Read more

3. Diablo-esque but that's a good thing

   Champions of Norrath is another of the hack and slash games from Snowblind. If you're into hack and slash games, these games are good stuff. The graphics are great and the game controls are good. The storyline is nothing spectacular but is acceptable (you know orcs & goblins must be stopped). There are some good boss battles. The game has multi-player options for 2 players and online play. One weakness of the game is that the framerate gets bogged down when there are a... Read more
