Feels rushed
Fun: This is an mediocre and disappointing title. I'm a big fan of co-op play with the Baulder's Gate and Champions of Norrath series...this game is in that hack-n-slash, half-RPG and half-adventure game mode, but it leaves alot to be desired for a "next-gen" game.
The game feels like it was originally designed for PS2 and at some point in production was deemed to be needed as a PS3 launch title. At the very least, its feels like it was rushed to launch eit...

This tale's been told before.
Fun: The PSP launched in March 2005 with only a few games that really took advantage of its hardware or unique features. One of the few that did was Sony Online Entertainment's Untold Legends: Brotherhood of the Blade. It was a game that had potential, and that potential has been brought to another Sony launch, that of the PlayStation 3. How does SOE's Untold Legends: Dark Kingdom fare in the next-gen, non-handheld environment? To say it bluntly, fair. Very fair.

How dare they?
Fun: This game is bad. Really bad. Whoever tested this game either was ignored or didn't actually play it. Many holes. Many bugs. Okay to look at. And you have lots of time to look at things while your character is stuck in mid air after trying to jump up nearly anything in the game. Really lackluster launch title for the PS3. I was looking for something along the lines of 'Baldur's Gate', this doesn't stand up even to those standards.

Awful game of this type....look for others less expensive and better
Fun: This is not a good way to start up the PS3 with a hack n' slash Badlurs Gate style game. The game looks and feels like a PS2 game and the game mechanics and playability are lackluster.
If you are new to this genre, look for the following games instead as they all will work on your PS3 and give you a little more enjoyment than what this game is worth. These games are each under [...]as compared to the robbery of [...].

My Nephew Says It Is Great.
Fun: This was a gift for my nephew, and he reported it A-0ne in all respects. I'm not a gamer, but I trust him to be honest. He is 15 and wouldn't be able to hide behind good manners if he didn't really like it.

what do you expect?
Fun: I have played untold legends games before, and they are all generally hack and slash, so this was to be expected. Still the graphics were pretty good and the storyline entertaining (played as the female). I also liked how the swords and armor looked different depending on what was equiped and which type. There were a few frustrating moments when the character got stuck on the side of a wall or boulder while fighting, but these were all momentary glitches. I boug...

pretty good
Fun: first off, i don't have an HDTV so i have no idea about how great the graphics can be, but it looks great just on a regular TV.
I am currently playing on easy mode just to see everything, then go back and play through on more difficult settings. With 3 characters (scout, warrior and mage) there should be a slight diffrence in each play through.
The storyline is fairly interesting but nothing too far from the ordinary for RPGs in general. The v...

seen it, done it
Fun: Untold Legends: Dark Kingdom is one of those games that doesn't have an inch of originality ANYWHERE. It's simply a game where you walk around slashing everything in sight. Of course, that alone is only a small bit of the problem. The main thing that makes this such a forgettable game is how the controls have a habit of not doing what you want them to do, which means, if a bunch of enemies are attacking you, good luck trying to defeat all of them. The controls ...

It is what it is
Fun: Its a hack and slash game. The intermitant smattering of "old speak" comes off kind of cheesey. I enjoyed hitting things with a hammer for a couple of evenings. It was kind of nice to look at.

Untold Legends: Dark Kingdom
Fun: Like many other PS3 launches, this game is below par. Firstly, the CGI storyline portion of the game was minimal. It's really dissapointing and less rewarding when you finish off levels and expect to be rewarded with a cool cut scene but faced with below par graphics. I really think the makers of this game (I believe it was Sony) rushed it to be among the few launch title of the PS3.
Speaking of graphics, the camera angle of the game was terrible. It's ...
