Better than the first, because the enemies are harder to kill and they're more interesting too. Especially the three at the end.
Since when could magic missiles miss?

I enjoyed Baldur's Gate I and II for the PC, for hack and slash "rpgs" they were immersive, and while not as fun as sitting around the table with my friends and my dice, they were a good waste of time. Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance is different. I picked it up because it was cheap, and I'm kind of a nerd and collect Forgotten Realms stuff, and it did say it followed 3rd edition rules. Right. What I got was one of the worst games money could buy that basically, in my opinion, made fun of d&d. And the magic missiles... I missed a lot with them in this game...in d&d they can't miss. Period. This game was awful... I miss games that had a plot
it's already over

.
great game. fun.
.
and incredibly short.
.
it's a rental based upon the length of the game. there isn't enough content here.
.
but what is here is fun. very fun. and that should be incentive enough to cough up the five.spot to rent this bad.boy some weekend.
This game sucked

Yes the graphics are beautiful. And the action battle engine is well done. But after I reached hour 10, I was quite bored. This game has a severe curse of doing the same thing over-and-over-and-over (fighting) and virtually no story. And the ending is not even a proper ending: "The story has just begun... see you in part 2." LAME.

I haven't played this game all the way through, but it's 4 discs long, so how can it be short?????! i have played a little bit of it, only to where i defeated the rats and went into the basement again. From what i played, it's a very good graphical game and the controls are pretty good. So i have to do my homework, bye!!
Delivers total game experience

Outstanding graphics, gameplay, and sound. Allows 360 degree control of the camera angle! This is definetly an addictive game! Though it ended rather abruptly and could have been much longer, I was blown away by the excellent FMV.
Personally I enjoyed the gameplay more than FF X. The FMV is not quite as good as FF X, but it is very good. The only negative is that the game ends about the time you would expect the half-way point. Still, I can't wait for the sequel!
short, but that's the only flaw.

like i said it's short but the graphics are incredible(water for example). The story is great and point A leads to point B, and the characters are perfect(dwarf was my fave) and the enemies get better and better as the game goes along. If you play in coperative mode you have even more fun. All in all great game, i'll be getting the sequel.
The Best game ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

This is significantly the best Baldur's Gate/Diablo game ive ever played. I just don't like how short it is but the graphics, gameplay, and replayability make up more than needed for it. i hope that every one i know buys it. And this is a must-buy for you and your kids.
Great!

This is the first game that actually interested me enough to play it the whole way through. My husband and I have been searching for a two-player game we would enjoy as much as this one, and there aren't anymore out there for the PS-2. I guess we'll just have to wait for the sequel!
Not Too Bad

Not a bad concept overall...great graphics, gameplay, and 3, no 4 (1 is hidden), difficulty levels to choose from. That was definitely what I liked about the game. Now the Cons. There isn't a whole lot of gameplay...not as much as I expected, there are only 3 classes and the races are set for those classes, and there isn't a LOT that makes it a 3rd Ed DND game. I've never seen a sword that can do 90-120 damage playing DnD, unless your character was built to the level he can do that kind of damage. Conclusion: It's a lot more like Diablo than DnD, but still not too bad
