GameBanshee Feature: Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance II Review

We've tossed up a review of Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance II, giving the Xbox and PS2 action RPG an overall score of 8.4/10. Our conclusion:
In the end, though, I have to recommend Dark Alliance II, expecially to those who haven't played the original. It manages to make up for almost all of the weaknesses of the former title and offers much more in the way of replay value. In addition to the personal quests that encourage you to play through the game as each character class, you can unlock both Drizzt do'Urden and Artemis Entreri. You can also take all of the playable characters to level 40 and max out their spells and feats along the way. If Dark Alliance was a potential renter, DAII is definitely a keeper and a good example of how console RPGs could begin to offer some of the same role-playing experiences that computer RPGs have been offering for years.
