With areas like the air realms, with floating platforms and lots of poison, or the castle stages, every part of the game has a unique look, with a unifying theme of massive, bloody combat. If you manage to make it to the end of the levels, the Realm guardian will await your challenge. Significantly difficult to beat monsters, the guardians are the beings protecting the keys to Skorne's fortress.
Defeat them all, and you'll be able to face Skorne himself. Don't worry about how strong they are, as you can find special items throughout the game that'll let you take them down a notch, making them much easier to beat.
Once you've collected all the items, crystals, icons, and keys not to mention the runestones that are hidden in various stages , you'll be able to get near the end of the game and open up the last few secret levels. While not particularly difficult, Gauntlet deserves special mention for the sheer amount of time it takes to go through the game, as a significant part of it requires playing a few levels over and over again, just for the experience.
It can be tedious, but when you're playing with friends, it can be a rewarding few hours of gameplay. The graphics in Gauntlet are flashy, but not what I'd call particularly impressive. As a cute little arcade number, it does well with the bright colors and overall lack of shadows and lighting effects, and manages to give you something nice to look at in each level.
If anything, its greatest flaw is that, much like the PS2 version, the camera is occasionally constricting, and can be a hassle to maneuver. Listening to that Gauntlet narrator is just too cool. Other than that, don't worry about the sound.
Play a CD, listen to someone cook, whatever'just don't rely on the auditory part of this game. It isn't really there, but it isn't really important. Gauntlet not only supports play with four people, but encourages it.
The more people the better. There aren't really any special concerns, as the game is the same for four people as it is with one. Much like its predecessor, the Playstation 2 version, Gauntlet: Dark Legacy is a significant improvement over the arcade version of this game. With improved graphics and significantly longer gameplay, it's a good choice for a four-person Gamecube party' at least if you haven't already gotten Super Smash Bros.
Improving on the PS2 version, it adds new items like the Health Amulet, which absorbs damage and turns it into health, the Mikey, an illusionary decoy, and the Hand of Death, which lets you suck health from enemies just like Death does to you. Also, this version lets you maintain your inventory of items, giving you the ability to turn off one of your power-ups, and let you conserve their power.
Strangely though, I thought the graphics were a fair sight poorer than those on the PS2, especially in the FMV cutscenes preceding some of the stages. While this might be due to a problem porting the game to the NGC, I can't be sure, but it doesn't look quite as nice. With a few flaws as compared to the PS2 version, I was very happy that this title came out for a system that already had four game ports already so I didn't have to shell out the money for yet another multitap.
Completed with almost the same quality, this game exceeds the original arcade version by a mile and then some, and is probably still one of the more enjoyable, if middle road, games that I've played in a while. An arcade title, ported straight from the arcade machine of the same name, this game won celebrity as an update to the original Gauntlet, an arcade classic from years ago.
Unchanged in concept, the console version of Dark Legacy features new levels, a few new gameplay styles, and with the four controller ports on the Xbox, the same multiplayer fun offered by the arcade machine. Set in a land besieged by evil, the ancient demon has been loosed by the foolish actions of a young wizard, Garm. Freed from his prison in the underworld, Skorne has attacked all the lands of the realm, and scattered the runestones, the only weapons able to send him back to the hellish pit from whence he came.
Battle through each realm, and defeat it's guardian, and you'll find the keys to open Skorne's fortress, and do battle with this ancient evil. Collect crystals along the way to unlock new areas, and you and three of your friends can defeat a menace for the ages. Gauntlet Legends is currently available on these platforms:.
