Don't buy the new Gauntlet console game.

Ziroc · 02-09-2006, 07:10 PM

Read nearly ANY review, and they say its a total joke. (I mean, Romero DID help make it, so I was expecting it'd tank)

Guess how long it took most people to beat it? TWO HOURS. Yeh. 2...

That is $25 an hour. Wow...

It sucks that most of the game companies now are releasing TRASH and hoping someone will buy it before all the bad reviews are out. One warning sign is that game companies send reviewers copies after its released in stores.. (and many also say 'you cannot publish a review until xx/xx/xx) which in my eyes means: "We know the game sucks ass, and we know you will think that too, so we want you to wait until we fool atleast SOME of the buying public to buy the game before they see your review".

here's a better idea:

0) have a computer
1) purchase NeverWinter Nights (Platinum Edition)
2) get your friends to do the same
3) install the CEP and the PRC stuff
4) download the modules Angband and Diablo. (use top down viewmode)
5) play until your heart is content.
6) repeat steps 4 and 5 as necessary

There you go: instant Gauntlet goodness, and you can have well over four players with a good internet connection at the same time, especially with the Angband module.
