The game was very well overall, but I found if you were a beginner, you'd have a very hard time beating this game. I suggest buying a gameshark which gives you cheats such as maximum health for all you warriors and stuff like that. Oh, the poor reviews i've read on this game are just not justified, you have to have patients with a role playing game, thats how and why they are made.

This is the greatest game except for the saving you have to complete a mission before you can save. Other than that the game is really great. If you love King Arthur or middle ages tales you will love this game.
ridiculous

A useless game. The voice acting is incredibly awful, I've never played a game with worse vocal talent. Graphics are okay, but having Arthur's tiny cape flutter in the wind is hardly worth whatever promotional hoopla the developers saw fit to include on the CD.
Oh yes, people talk about the impressive cut-scenes, but that quality doesn't translate into the gameplay.
WHAT A LET DOWN!!!

At first watching the trailer I was excited to check this game out. First thing the movies in this game are totally cool and have great graphics, but lacked in game play. I absolutely hated the camera view of this game. If it was first person then this game might of had a chance but overall this game got two thumbs down from me.
great game

I got this game based on the reviews on many sites. They mostly gave 3 stars. When I got this game I was expecting it to be good but with a few flaws. And thats what it was like. This game is an excellent game for strategy and RPG gamers. It has the famous story of king arthur and the knights of the round table. This game lets you find all 8 knights of the round table and select 2 to travel with you on individual missions. I loved this game. I would recommend it to anyone who thinks that it might be cool and if your worried it might [be bad] It is better than what people write their reviews about.
The Good:
13 Huge levels of fighting and roleplaying.
Choose the knights of the round table to go with you on
missions.
Lots of items to find and equip in different levels.
Awsome cutscenes and movies.
The Bad:
Autosaving, you cannot save the game when you want. It automatically saves after you complete a mission. You cannot save during a mission.
Missions can be long and you cannot save to rest.
When you die during a mission you start at the beginning.
RATING
This game is pretty tough for the first couple of missions but, it is a great game and I recomend this game to any hard core gamers. FOUR STARS.
Very shallow and lackluster

I like the idea of this game, King Arthur, Merlin, Gwenevere, Lancelot, etc... but there is something missing. It reminds me of a really horrible version of Ultima 7 (for the PC), with no depth or cool fx. To sum up, I cannot tell you any reason to even play this game. Big disappointment. Level 2 is almost impossible, and after several attempts you might ask WHY BOTHER???
odds and ends

This game is one of the best games I have ever played. And I played alot of games. It is fun if you like action adventure games that have fighting or other violence. I started playing and was hooked. After you get used to how to play it and figure out where to look for things it is more fun. But this was a short game for me to beat. The graghics are a bit less than I would expect for playstation2.
could have been better.

This game is an ok for the PS2. The graphics are not all that good and the CG's are pretty good too. Another thing I dont really like is that you have to switch your characters when fighting. That was pretty easy to get used to though. The characters are small it almost looks like PS graphics when fighting. The sound and the phrases of the characters start to get annoying after a while. Some levels it is fun to destroy the enemy and then some they just overwhelmed me and got very frustrating. The only thing I really liked was the story of the game. Where Arthur has to fight his evil sister to save england. That would proably be the only thing that saves this game. I would not say to buy this game, I would more likely say to rent it.
Thank God I rented it first.................

What a disappointment! Being a huge fan of the Gauntlet series (also by Midway) and fan of the King Arthur stories, I was stoked to play this game. Something told me to rent it before buying and I am so happy I did. The play is elementary - pure and simple - no fun. The graphics are okay but the characters you are using are so tiny you can hardly make them out (and I play on a 32" TV)...
