This the first D&D game for the Gamecube and is a really good game. Graphics and storyline are incredible. If you have a GCN get it, it is a must have (especialy for the D&D Forgotten Realms players out there). Final word; Get it, get it, get it. :-)

Dark Alliance is a great addition to Gamecube's line up. Having played it on both the Ps2 and X-box, I was already familiar with the gameplay and story line. I only got it because i wantda good RPG on my cube. This game rocks, especially on the cube. This along with Resident Evil and Starfox are the only reasons I decided to get a Gamecube.

This game is great! You kill monsters to gain levels, choose new skills and spells to make yourself a better fighter, and complete quests and in return get things like items from people. Lots of fun!

Baulders Gate Dark Alliance is a very fun game but the story lacking. The Graphics were good and the music was alright. The Only problem with this game is that it is very short and not very challenging (on normal mode). If they made the game longer it would probably be one of the best if not the best game for the Game Cube.

I spend too much time playing this one

The descriptions written by the game's publishers don't praise it enough. Detail of graphics and audio, variation of monsters, ability to play the game different ways (e.g. 3 different characters, choose different skills, play w/ a friend), all make it superb entertainment. I've played it to the end 4 times already, with increasing difficulty it is still 'new' each time.
I hope they port other volumes of this series to GC soon.

Must own game, but if you have a PS2 or XBox...

This is a fantastic game if you get any enjoyment out of dungeon crawl games, such as Diablo and Dungeon Siege. The fact that two players can play simultaneously through the campaign alone would make it worth buying, and the fantastic graphics, solid gameplay, and ability to customize your character through skills and feats make this game a must own. However, the Game Cube version is arguably the weakest version of this game, which has also been ported to the XBox and PS2. The frame rates, which are constantly maxed out on the other consoles, regularly dip into the jerky range. However, if you only own a GameCube, this is well worth it.

One of the best RPG games.

This game, while being somewhat short and simple, is a fun game with very good graphics and is very realistic. Anyone who has read the Forgotten Realms series or enjoys playing RPG, games should consider purchasing this game. It is one of the few games in which you can work together with another player to beat the game. This game can import players from a different file to a new or other game. This means you can take your character and play using that character with a friend on their file. Anytime during the game you can add a second player without having to start at another save point. Also for those who have read the Forgotten Realms: Dark Elf Trilogy, you can enjoy playing the game with Drizzt, the dark elf, by holding the L and R button on the character select screen and release after the game loads. Otherwise you can be an elven sorceress, a human archer, or a dwarven fighter. The game allows you to aquire new skills, grow to higher levels, buy your own arsenal, and customise your own charachter. I highly recommend this game. Unfortunatly, due to the blood and violence it is rated teen.

A MUST HAVE

I started this game and didnt stop. with three different charachters to play with, you can play it three times and even on four different difficulties from easy to extreme. Even challenge yourself on the Gauntlet minigame after you have beaten the original. Gain experience and customize your character as you choose. Gain hundreds of weapons such as swords, axes, hammers, spears, halberds, and bows as well as magical armor from leather to full platemail as you progress through the challenging and detailed world of the Sword Coast. Monsters galore! Defeat everything from giant rats to Ice Dragons and Kobolds to Minotaurs. An awesome plotline with a cliffhanger ending that sets up for a great sequel.

I am a very big gamer. Therefor I have payed quite a few games. I have to say this is one of my favorites. If you like the dungeons and dragons type stuff I would recommend this game to anyone of any age. I know the rating is teen. However my little brothers are only 9 and they're on it a lot. I would give this game a 10/10.
