Pretty good game - very similar to "X-Men Legends II"

I'm about half way through this game and so far it has been a lot of fun. It is very similar to the X-Men Legends game that is available for PSP, so if you like that game, you'll probably like this one, too. Your character can level up and you can find armor and weapons that you can use or sell. There are health and power potions that you can use to keep your character going.

Highly recommended. I like this one much better than the first installment.

excellent game

Just as cool as Untold Legends Brotherhood of the Blade, plus able to play online as well. If you liked BoB then this is a must have for your psp.

Addictive, but lacking...

I got this game because of the infrastructure mode, but when you try to log in using your registered name, it won't work. The only way you can play infrastructure is through an anonymous login. They really need to work on their servers...

Other than that the one player game is pretty fun! It's not too hard to learn, and I like how your HP regenerates continuously. It really helps because they don't give you many health potions.

It's pl ////

I liked this game. Brotherhood of the blade is my most favorite game of all, so switching over to this one was a little harder. The controls are different from Brotherhood of the blade so sometimes I get a little lost. I got stuck at the last of the four bosses in the temple (if you haven't played it yet you'll know what I mean when you get there). There aren't ANY walkthroughs that I can find, so I can't really play the game now.
The cool thing is the transformation that the characters do. It doesn't seem to make much of a difference when you're fighting, but it's cool anyway. I would definitely recommend this game if you liked the first one.

Sucky game with expensive price

This game does not worth $39.99. It plays like Diablo. Boring and boring and boring.

not much changed since Brotherhood of the Blade

In Sony's follow up to one the first games for PSP, Untold Legend - The Warrior's Code reprises your role as adventurer in a fantasy land where you must survive by the sword. You are provided with hundreds of weapons and potions and add-ons - at times, as with Brotherhood of the Blade, one gets irritated and wishes that the crappier items automatically get thrown out. There are some changes that have happened since Brotherhood.

You get to read small, useless quotes during the load screens. The loading is terrible, for the graphics that you get. Your various level-up powers are distributed in a more intuitive fashion, so you no longer `waste' upgrades on skills you won't use. You get to transform into a beast after some `recharge time.' This was the key feature to Warrior's Code that was touted. Sadly, the beast mode is useless. It takes an hour to recharge into the mode, and then you don't get to use weapons in beast mode.

There are some attack skills that have been improved, but overall, Sony has done little to improve on the idea of fantast RPG. This game could have been far; far greater if the team had focused on eliminating many of the micromanagement tasks, eliminated bird's eye view, and improved the graphics.

Many of the missions have no basis - you have no clue why you are doing this or that, and who the people you are demolishing are. This formula worked largely in the 80's and 90's when games were all small alterations to the Mario Bros. formula. If you like to be engaged for hours in aimless maiming and slaughter, Untold Legends provides a great outlet for it.

GRAPHICS: 5/10 (Programmers became lazy - and when the competition looks a lot better it brings down the Untold Legends series.)

SOUND: 5/10 (When its there its fine, but sometimes the UMD just hangs and there is only the battle sounds. People talk now.)

CONTROLS: 8/10 (Due to the simple semi-3D (mostly elevated camera 2D) gameplay, the controls don't get too complex. The mapping of power-ups are odd at times, but user customizable.)

DIFFICULTY: 6/10 (The need to constantly guzzle potions when battling army hordes of bugs, beasts and other odd creatures get irritating. There is the added problem to timing the potion consumption in this game, which makes for a real pain.)

LOAD TIMES: HIGH (Expect to sit around for ages, just like with its predecessor Brotherhood of the Blade)

OVERALL: 5/10 (You might be satisfied with hack-n-slash, especially if you have the amount of upgrades and levels that are provided. Very long single player, and multiplayer available.)

Fun Mostly

The second installment of Untold Legends has made some improvements with game play and certainly with the graphics. The story is very linear, you must clear one area to get to the next. The monsters are interesting, but the longer you play and start leveling up, the are actually quite easy. Even the bosses are pretty easy to take out. Hack and slash and use a health potion or two and that does the job most of the time. There are no puzzles to solve, just basically dungeon crawling, find an exit or a boss and then go on to the next thing that opens for you. Though it doesn't sound all that great, it is actually quite addicting and the story is interesting enough that you want to see what happens. Fans of Diablo should find this game to their liking.

A worthy sequel - Although Warriors Code has it's share of flaws

Obviously when a company releases a video game, if it's the first of it's kind - Mostly little money is invested into it.. But because of Untold Legends' success, more money & time was put into the Warriors Code.. Unfourtantely they didn't quite get it right.

This game is much less generic.. the classes arent the usual Druid, Warrior, Alchemist, etc.. classes & that's nice - Also you've probably found out you can shape-shift into different beasts for a short duration, & that's a great change too..

However there's one big problem with this game... It's simply way too easy. Your character levels up MUCH quicker in this game than in the first Untold Legends, & too quickly for that matter. After about level 20, playing as the Prowler, even the toughest bosses died in a few hits.. & I would run through 10 or so creatures at once without my health even being effected! After a while.. there's just no challenge.. It's basically like you get to level 20 or so & you win.. They made the characters way too strong for the villains.

Also at times the quests are confusing in exactly where to go or what to do. I think it should also be noted that unlike the original, you really have to explore the entire map of everywhere you go, which makes things a bit tedious.

All in all.. It's about as good as the original Untold Legends... The cinematics are better, theres cooler characters, theres voice dubbing... But the original was definitely more challenging.

huge improvement from the first.....lots of new features!!!!!

This game is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much better than the first. Instead of just pressing "x" all the time,joe can do charged attacks by pressing and holding x.You can also do attacks of oppertunity,witch are REALLY cool and are unique too each character.They do take a while to get the hang of though. the negitives stated in the other reveiws are pretty much true,but there are WAY more positives.I was afraid that this game would be to short,but this game is accually pretty long...... i bought it when it came out,and after a lot of playing,i have reached the final chapter. there are five chapters,all getting harder and longer as you go.A very good feature is that instead of the missions just being,"go to this place and kill this guy", this missions are a lot more complicated.for instince in one of them you have to go find this enemy tower,place charges,rescue a prisoner,and GET OUT. also in the first one everything was flat,but in this one,you can go up a ramp and see the level below and then come back down. another thing is there are 6 merchants.making it much less monotonous. HAVE NO DOUBTS ABOUT THIS GAME IT IS SOOOOOOOOOOOO FUN...SO GO BUY IT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Original Was Great (Multi-Player was Awesome), This One Tops it (ON-LINE Multi-Player)

OK, so I was a big fan of the original. It was a fun way to kill some time at the gym, or waiting in line for a movie, or on a trip in the car. And if you had a friend with a PSP, even better! The two of you could mix it up for even more fun. Now, with Warrior's Code, they take it a step further. If you're at the gym, and you can tap into an unsecured line, or if you're away on business, and the hotel has free wireless, or even when you're at home on your own wireless network, you can link up with other players that have access to a wireless network. OK, so did I also mention the fact that while playing a linked game through two separate wireless neworks, there was no apparent slow down? Now that's impressive. I don't know how they were able to get everything to play so flawlessly in a linked game, but I like. Oh, and the single player game is a lot of fun, too.
