a safer addiction than most illegal drugs

this game can be very addictive. i played it for several days (in a row) (with no sleep) (and going to college), in single player mode and multi. if you like rpg games, and are tired of being on the comp for many hrs, then you will like gauntlet. otherwise, you might not like the game, or you will have to get used to it. there are only a few bad qualities in this game-- some levels take awhile to load, and some of the graphics are not too good. also, while playing on multi player, if you wander away from the other players, be careful because you can get stuck behind a wall and be attacked (helplessly). the only way to fix this is every player has to re-trace their steps so you can free yourself. anyway, rent this game before you buy it, just to make sure its "your type" of a game.

A great games with a few frustrations...

Word of caution to those that are purchasing this game... as you get deeper into the levels, there is a problem in the coding that causes the game to randomly freeze up when you obtain a hint scroll. According to MidWay Tech Support, they are aware of the problem, but there is currently no fix in the works.

The game itself is great fun and the lock up proves to be mildly annoying (you will need to restart the Gamecube and begin the level over.) I'm just surprised to find that MidWay is well aware of the problem and not working to fix it.

Thought it would be helpful to know as you purchase this that it does have a small drawback.

Awesome Game!

This is a wonderful game. While the graphics are not splendid, the gameplay is spectacular, especially if you have friends playing with you. Four people wasted (well, not wasted) seven straight hours playing this game. Again, wonderful. Though completely lacking any interesting storyline at all, the constant battle and interesting settings are enough to keep you busy. The sound is very nice, too, especially the music. The only problem is that it is very quiet, and you can never hear it amidst the noise of a battle. It's very rare to not be in a battle in this game, so the music cannot be properly appreciated. While not delivering an epic tale of romance and magnificence, the game does what it's supposed to. It provides a very fun game, both multiplayer and single player, and allows for hours of action packed fun. Overall? Maybe 8, 8.5/10.

SO COOL!!!!!

This was the first game I bought for my Gamecube. For the most part it was a solid game in Multiplayer mode and a boring game in Single Player. Lets break down some of the aspects to this game.

Multiplayer Play: 5/5. Cant get much better then this. Its fun the sit around the TV with 2 or 3 of your friends and play this game. Its always a race for the treasure or a race for the food item. Multiplayer play wise this game is almost the best out there.

Single Player Play: 2/5. I tried it but it just isnt the same. There is no build up of emotions to get to the chests and theres no teamwork to take down the boss. Its not as fun with only one person I'd stay away from this if your going to play it by yourself.

Characters: 5/5. there are 6 characters to begin the game with and about 10 unlockables that you can unlock throughout your adventures. Plently of great charcaters from a Jester, to a wizard, to a Amazon, etc. Wonderful Selection.

Length- 4/5. Its about an 8-10 hour game not cheating or using any guides. Its certainly worth the $20.00 MAX you would put out to buy it.

In conclusion this game is 100% worth it for Multiplayer action and not worth it for single player action.

A perfect example of what a GC game should be.

This is one of the first Gamecube Games I have played. It is really fun, and Leveling up the charactors gives the game GREAT replay value. Who cares if it has horrible voice acting, It is still fun. Like some other reviewers said,This game is great to play with your family. Even my mom and my 6 year old sister like to play this. Whenever my cousins come over, we do 4-player mode and it is AWESOME.

As Most Midway games go, this is fairly easy to beat (I beat it alone when I was like 10) But sometimes all the levels do get repetitive. It definately looks like this game was rushed to the stores. There is alot of glitches and bugs in it, and it freezes. And as for the levels, the only thing that it changes as you go along are the backrounds, and the emenies. But a few puzzles here and there makes up for that.

THE BOTTOM LINE:
This was an overlooked and underrated Gamecube game, but with lots of potentiol. This is a must have for your Gamecube collection, as long as you can take it correctly, and deal with the glitches. You should rent it first and if you like it, then buy it. I have had this game since 2002, and still play it like every 2 weeks. Why not give it a try?

... Gauntlend Legends rocks! I have it for N64. The day it came out for N64 i got it and fell in love with the game! I must have played it for at least 3 hours that day. Well in Gauntlend Legends you use one of the many characters and kill these monsters with magic, swords, and other cool things! It is a game for players 1-4 and the age of gamers for it should be from 10 to 18! This game is rated TEEN for violance and blood. In 2-4 player mode you don't have to have 2 diffrent mods you use more then one player to conquer the bad guys! Awsome! This game is awsome for partys! This game you must have if you saw the movie Lord of The Rings! You should also get it if you like the game Golden Sun for Gameboy Advance.
Well as i said you will love it! Hope you get i will for Gamecube! If you dont have Gamecube get it before it is to late!!! ...

I have owned a nintendo system for over 8 years. On N64 I owned this game and I thought it was one of the best games I've ever played. Also I've played this exact game on a gaming thing at shadow lands and its great so I highly advise you to buy it!!!!

It is it

I loved Gauntlet Legends for N64. Now I have gamecube and I really want Gauntlet Dark Legacy. I've been searching for a decent game for a pretty long time. I think this might be it. My friend told me it's great. From the looks of it I think he's right!
