The game is definitely fun and brings me back to the arcade. There are some issues though. The PS2 version is the toughest looking but I feel it has the best frame rate. The game is a lot of fun to play alone, but basically only one time. The sound is also weird. There are some sounds that are clear and precise and then other effects are substantially louder and sharper for some reason. Also the narrator voice is almost as muffled and old as the original gauntlet game. Over all it is a great gauntlet game.

Game play has been perfect were already almost finished. There's been a small glitch with the spider queen level but only after playing it through a few times. I carefully wiped the disc but it didn't fix the issue. My husband and I couldn't play through the first level of the dream relm. Unfortunately we're probably going to have to buy another disc. :/

When I had my first PlayStation in was a 2 and this was by far my favorite game to play over and over. The levels don't change once you finish the game but there are many characters to play and try out their skills and also some fun cheat codes found on line. Although this was not compatible with my play station 3 ( they stopped making compatible consoles for ps2 games after the first year due to costs by the manufacture) I luckily still saved my ps2 and had a great time revisiting this game after all these years,comparable to "Super Mario Brothers" nostalgia. It has a few down sides, for instance levels that never seem to end,no map to guide you and not many great clues on where rune stones and special items are hidden. So that being said, it may not be for a impatient player. The graphics are also pretty low to today's standards but still good fun. Multiple players on a full screen format. Fun to play with children as the sophistication and graphics are very mild. I am 37 year old female and my 40 year old Husband had fun for a week playing! Hope that helps for fantasy game lovers! P.s PS3 owners and Gauntlet lovers, Diablo is very similar with amazing graphics and characters with great powers and skills to be gained.Read full review

I take back what I said about the game not working and apologize. PS2 is older fat model and I opened it up to clean both lasers and now the game is recognized by the PS2. Thank you for the game, but I still had to get cleaned because of scratches.

This was a good hack and kill game for up to 4 players. I had originally bought the game because i have played a couple of the other "Gauntlet" series games, and this one didn't look too bad. It's really fun to play when you have a bunch of other ppl to play with, but can be very difficult and boring when you are by yourself. One of the best parts of the game, in my opinion, is the coin mazes. If your successfully compete these mazes, you unlock bonus characters, one for each category of fighter. The one thing that I didn't really like about this game is that ir can get kinda long, as a few levels you can get easily lost in, and the game's ending has something to be desired. But as with the other Gauntlet games, the ending should be expected.
