What Gamespot Users have to say about Champions of Norrath

  • Rating:8.7

    The magnificent evolution of Diablo-esque games. A few unnecessary bugs are the only drawbacks.

    After finishing Champions of Norrath, I realized that I still owned Diablo and Diablo II. The first words out of my mouth were "What's the point?" Champions of Norrath has everything that Diablo fans salivated over - Gre... Read Full Review

    Good game with a few technical flaws that don't detract from the overall good experience.

    I will not add much to what has already been said. I bought this game for $20 Cdn and I must say that it was a real bargain. Good graphics, good control, good sound with music that sets the mood. I only encountered 2 ... Read Full Review

    Continuing in the fine tradition of dungeon romps

    Addictive is the only word than can describe this feast of an action RPG. The five characters classes provide drastically varying playstyles that add a whole new level of strategy to your average dungeon hack, from your ... Read Full Review

    Champions of Norrath plays well despite the bugs, and you'll keep coming back for more good old fashioned skull-crushing

    Champions of Norrath is as close to Diablo 2 as you're going to get on a console. It would be nice to say that Champions is as full-featured as Diablo 2 in terms of everything from character skillsets and customization t... Read Full Review

    Quite possibly the best Console Action RPG I've played so far..........

    2004 is a great year for shooters, RTS, and sports titles, but what about the good ol' action RPG? Well thank God for Champions of Norrath because this game is BEAST! I like this game more than Diablo, for some reason. N... Read Full Review

    As you may be able to tell from my games list, I'm a devoted follower of "hack n' slash games" (even have the admitadly crappy version of "Gauntlet" for PS2 in my possession). First of all, Baldur's Gate was great, and p... Read Full Review

    This is definitely a fun game. There is no denying it. If you are into the fantasy role-playing thing at all, it should be a cool title. Now, for those of you who were Diablo 2 addicts, there may be nothing new here... Read Full Review

    This is a pretty good game. I just rented it today and it is very easy to pick up and play. The graphics are decent and the amount of weapons, clothes, potions, and accessories is insane! I love games that give a lot of ... Read Full Review
