Best Diablo like RPG for PSP

4 Rating: 4, Useful: 12 / 12

This is a typical Diablo inspired RPG. Your hero will hack, slash and loot his/her way through yet another fantasy setting. What makes this game atypical is how well its made and lack of good rpg's for PSP. The interface in this game is pretty good. You use the knob to move, shoulder buttons to drink potions, directional buttons to switch weapons/magic/ map modes, and others to use weapons. As you learn different skills up to six are assignable via button combinations. The interface falls short a bit when it comes to managing inventory. Pressing select bring up a whole new screen. the is no "paper doll" but rather lists for armor/ weapons/ gear etc.. assigning points and viewing stats takes a bit of taking use to. Good thing you don't take damage as you do so. Other handy feature is compare button which allows quick check to see if your equipped sword is better or worse that that mace you just found.
Another shortcoming that only first line of dialogues is voiced.
However, it is still a greatlooking, fun, engrossing game.

It is a must have for all RPG fans.
4.5/5

RPG at it's best so far on handhelds

This game has a good, interesting story. The Graphics are good, good spell effects, characters clothes and weapons change on screen when you change them in inventory{which is a picky thing, but very big}, and some decent monster designs. The controls are very easy to learn, and streamline the experience. A.I. is decent, and your summoned "followers" are good, but maybe could be fine tuned. Overall it's very fun, and the involving story will keep you til the end, and co-op should make a 2nd visit worthy.

Great game. Amazing production

This game is excellent and well produced:
It has a terrific story that keeps unfolding. The visuals are strong and appealing and complex. The characters clothes changes with each item (weapon, armour, accessory, etc) it acquires (there are hundreds of items). The character is well developed. It has charateristics that can change as you develop. There are dozens of types of characters to fight.

Before Dungeon Seige, Lord of the Rings was my favourite game. I tried at least 10 other games since Lord of the Rings before I found this one that I found to be just as engaging. Highly Reccomended.

Does DS:ToA have the depth of a true RPG? Of course not, although it's tough to pull that off in a handheld game -- I will wait for Oblivion or D&D:Tactics to see if that formula will work successfully on a handheld. But what DS:ToA succeeds at smashingly is being a ton of fun to play. I commute to a different state by train weekly and this game is the perfect fix for just killing time -- just enough role playing to keep you working towards that next level-up for an hour or two, but not so complex that you feel a massive mental commitment is required to play. The controls are simple, the graphics are great for a handheld, and the gameplay is stellar. At times the game slows down my PSP a touch, and I've had to reboot once. But mostly it works smoothly and is a great and enjoyable diversion.

WOW!!!

I bought this game a few days ago without knowing anything about it or any of DS game and I'm very impressed with the level (and quality) of the detail. This game is leaps and bounds better than any other game of its kind for the PSP to-date. I compare the graphics quality to that of Samurai Warriors: State of War, which is a very good thing. I enjoy the leveling process as well. There are tons of items to find including weaponry, potions, armor, jewelry, and quest items. Plus they even gave us incantation shrines to help boost abilities for a short period before each big quest. The gameplay is very simple and fun and leveling is quite easy to do and you can do it on the fly as you're playing by simply pressing the Select button. If you don't have this game already you need to go out and get it today!

This is more fun that I would have ever believed!!!

I bought my PSP simply because GTA Vice City came out for the PSP. That and I have to travel a lot. And there's nothing better than sitting in cattle class and shooting random people in the street in GTA to get the aggressions out.

But as time has gone on, I've bought other games for my PSP and requested this one for the holidays after reading some favorable reviews. And this game is great. Like the other reviewers, it's got a Diablo-like feel to it. (assuming you've wasted a lot of your life on Diablo like I have) This is a great dungeon crawl and I'm really enjoying it way too much. The graphics are great. The music is awesome. Not all characters have voices which is fine. The animation is smooth. The only problem that I have is that sometimes the load times are long. Can't have everything though. I highly recommend this!

A Fine Dungeon Siege

This is a fine little game bringing the same kind of play as the successful "Untold Legends" series. The graphics aren't quite as nice, and you can't move the camera around, but this does not detract from the game play experience very much. On the plus side, you have a variety of interesting companions that may fight at your side (one will both fight and constantly heal you). I reccomend this game.

Beware - Bugs!

Everything was fine until about 2/3rds of the way through. At that point, I ran into some rather obvious bugs. First, it refused to acknowlege that I'd completed a quest - even the obvious steps like "Enter the Citadel" would not receive the checkmark. Then, it fell into a mode where I couldn't hit any monsters. Swinging just fine, but not able to actually hit anything. I tried rebooting from a saved game, but still ran into the same problems. Lost all motivation to start from the beginning with a new character...

Almost a perfect game

This adaption of the Dungeon Siege product line for PSP is almost perfect. It has great graphics, challenging play, and a good story line. The only thing that mars it is a flaw in the multiplayer mode that saves character data but restarts you at the very beginning of first area when you load a save game; making it vitually imposible to play through the whole game in multiplayer. Overall for solo play I'd give it a 5 star rating but as a total product this flaw drops it to 4 Stars in my opinion.

Great RPG!

The storyline is solid enough to be on a computer game and the graphics are up to par. The music is the outstanding and came out straight out of the dungeon siege original computer game. I really do enjoy playing this game the only problem I have, and believe me when I say it is not a major issue, is the loading time during multiplayer. Very nice buy, and one I do not regret. I will probably finish this game with each one of the 3 characters included. Extremely easy to pick up on the run and do a quest or two between patients.
