PRO: - So many combo and the possibility to use 3 fighters with different features - Fucking GOOD music and voice acting - Very well drawn locations, animations and cinematic views - Great characterization of everyone in the game (allies and enemies) - Good replay value, cause you can retry every level you want with your upgraded char, even to find some unlockable bonus content or to beat your previous score CONS: - BAD CONSOLE PORT !! You HAVE TO change keys to play with keyboard + mouse... and it will suck anyway... it's made for a gamepad... - There are no subtitles in bonus contents but you can find here the text: http://www.gamefaqs.com/ps2/920088-forgotten-realms-demon-stone/faqs/41934 - The last cinematic has a very low res graphic... wonder why - You can save ONLY between levels... there are only auto-saved check points, but if you quit before finishing the level you lose them - You can't skip cinematics... this is bad when you die repeatly with a boss and you have to watch the entire introduction everytime... - no multiplayer... even if it can be the best game to play in cooperative... LONG EXPLANATION: I enjoyed this game, it's short and easy, I finished it in hard mode in 3 days, but I'm replaying it sometimes with my "Hero" (after you finish the game) charaters. I like to watch this game cause it's like an epic movie in some way, and characters are well developed, so you will remember them, even if the story it's nothing new, it's well told. Anyway this is an Hack And Slash game, you have to burn/cut/slash enemies in the worst way possible, and you can !! The team can help a single char in combat but it is not a so developed functionality of the game... anyway, it's great to fight with 2 companions, and it's good to watch them fight with you !! very spectacular !! Some boss fights are epic, you have to find a way to kill them, you can't simply go and smash, and part of the fun is find HOW !! I didn't found any bug in the game, even if I read there are. CONCLUSION: This is a little gem, an underrated one, but it's not polished as it should be for the PC. You want to take this if you need a game that tou can play sometimes for 15/30 mins just to enjoy a level, or for a saturday evening just to finish it in one shot.
