Dungeons and Dragons: Heroes! (Gamecube, PS2, XBOX)

It's funny how they advertise "3rd edition", when it's even more restrictive than 2nd edition. [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]

Originally posted by Xero279: Yes! finally, a decent D&D game for a video game console! i was reading thru y fav music magazine today (Alternative Press) and during the section "hot games for summer", i see this add for a d&d game for gamecube (nintendo), ps2, and xbox. this is gotta be the coolest thing ever. the graphis are so cool, you can play with 3 other friends. it uses 3rd edition rules, all the feats and everything. a must buy! i expect each and every one of you to pick up this game. its way too cool not to . find out more at www.infogrames.com (yes, its suposed to be "grames" not "games")

It look a lot like the Baldurs Gate game that came out for the PS2 and other Consoles-- I LOVED that game (as an adventure and action) It was a hack and slash, but it's an AWESOME game to spend an hour just advancing and seeing all the new stuff!

Baldurs Gate: Dark Alliance was the name I believe, it's a 'value' game now, so the price is cheap!! I give it 4 out of 5 stars for fun value [img]smile.gif[/img]

It may lean more towards hack and slash and all that, but i still think it will kick butt! I liked dark alliance, like ziroc, so i think i should like this. the graphics look awesome too. itll be out during the summer, which is soon here. Im sure we will get reviews posted her on IW once we have played it. O, and the new Star Wars game looks good too. it showed a pic of a jedi dualwielding light sabers. they might do that in the newest movie, i havent seen it yet

Anakin tried to wield dual lightsabers and came away less one arm.

not sure i will like this type of game. i prefer the slow development of created characters rather than pick a pre-made. i tried that Dark Alliance game and it was so-so.

Looks like half have doubts and half are expect to like it. we shall see how it turns out.

I will agree with a few that for 3rd Edition this does have a lot of restrictions but I think as far as race and class goes there is a reason behind it. They did each race to fit a class, such as elven kind are most commonly mages, dwarves are fighters as well as humans, half elves for rogues (they're light footed) and so forth. I hope it's good (didn't really look at it) because if it isn't, it'll ruin a lot of people's view and perspective on the 3rd Edition game. They already messed up the game once with the D&D Movie [img]tongue.gif[/img]

I am so looking forward to that! You can pick your race, you train at an Academy, pick colour loghtsaber, dual-wielding, double-bladed or just single. You can do incredible stunts, and advance through the Academy...

Knights Of The Old Republic looks good as well...

PS: I think the above game is called Jedi Knight 3. Not sure though.
