This isn't for PC Games, but it's for the Playstation 2. I don't own one, but check out the Official site for Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance for screenshots:

http://www.interplay.com/bgdarkalliance/mainpage.htm

And watch the Mpeg video of the game in action here:
ftp://ftp.interplay.com/pub/movies/bgda-e3trailer.mpg (it's streamable, and 31MB)

So what do you think? would YOU buy a PS2 for this game? I know a few OTHER games coming out on the PS2 soon also look good (RPGs).. Hmmmmm

that video is pretty cool. i'm definetely gonna be getting that when it comes out, but i don't think it will be as good as the pc baldurs. a little too guantlet-ish for me maybe.

I agree, it's kinda like Zelda (interface).. They always make console games easier to use.. no nifty options like for the PC! It does look cool though, If I got a PS2, I'd get this game, and a really good racing game.. (Need for speed type) They said GT3 was crappy..?? And it looked bad, is it? WAY OT now.. hehe

The interface HAS to be easier its hard trying to make the controller perform like a mouse and keyboard.

I don't know... was that supposed to be a beholder in the 2nd screenshot? It was kind of lame looking, if so. Still, it'll be nice for all of the console gamers to be able to play BG.

The same things gonna happen as what happened with Crusaders Of Might And Magic, they take a game that was at least reasonably RPG'ish and turn it into hack 'n' slash, wanna bet?
