Gauntlet: Seven Sorrows (PlayStation 2, 2005)

Gauntlet seven sorrows has your same aspect of the original as far as it being a multiplayer game. However the concept has changed. There is no mystery, stones or even real difficulty in this one. The original Gauntlet took a little time for me to complete, however this one was defeated in less than 3 hours. There is a corney break between each level that shows and tells you of your next boss. I was actually dissappointed that I purchased this one. Save your money and rent from the local blockbusters if you just want to defeat it once and be done. For a challenge buy it and try to defeat it in the Impossible level. However it says impossible, it still can be defeated!! The game is rather short! If you need help on a boss or get stuck drop me a line.

I BOUGHT THIS GAME BECAUSE I LIKED GAUNTLET: DARK LEGACY. I LIKED THE GRAPHICS AND DIFFERENT MOVE SETS ACQUIRED IN THIS GAME. THE GAMEPLAY IS VERY GOOD AND THE STORYLINE AS WELL. HOWEVER, THE STORYLINE DRASTICALLY CHANGED FROM THAT OF GAUNTLET: DARK LEGACY .WHAT I DID NOT LIKE ABOUT THIS GAME IS THE VERY SHORT LENGTH. BEING THAT GAUNTLET: DARK LEGACY IS SO LONG, I EXPECTED THIS TO BE ALSO. ANOTHER IMPROVEMENT COULD BE MAKING MORE CHARACTERS AND MORE UPGRADES FOR THE CHARACTERS IN THE GAME.

Ah where to begin, so much was done wrong with this game. The story line: You are apparently an immortal hero who was betrayed by your king who attempted to steal your immortality. You are revived basically to fix everything that this king screwed up. No grand "Save the world from some horrible evil" plot line, just a fix the stupid kings mistakes by killing his advisors. Also, when you consider that these advisors are the ones who are responsible for your imprisonment you would think that this would be a good plot. Revenge is fun right, well this is one of the first times I've ever seen a revenge plot line screwed up. Difficulty: The game is far too easy to beat. Boss Battles: The bosses are way too easy. The first one is a scare crow surrounded by flaming pots. I think I counted maybe two bosses that you actually had to fight. In all of the other boss battles you basically ran around, killed some of his minions, flipped some switches, and that killed the boss. The generators. First they always look the same. The entire game through. The scenery may be completely different surrounding them, but they look almost, if not exactly the same. Second, the enemies do not come out of the generators, they teleport in around the stupid things. Even if there are 6 generators 5 of which you have destroyed they still teleport in around the 5 destroyed generators until you destroy the sixth. Zoom Level - The zoom level for this game is similar to that of Champions of Norrath: Return to Arms. Great for showing off artwork, stinks to play through though. Furthermore, it results in small levels - yet another problem the game has. Camera Control - you have none. This wasn't an issue in the original Gauntlet Legends, or even Gauntlet Legends: Dark Legacy because they gave you a birds-eye view of the battle field. In a game where you are zoomed in like this control of the camera would be very nice. Buy Powerups - this element of the game is basically gone. Now you get to spend maybe one point - if you are lucky to improve your attack, health or mana regeneration. Sorry, but 1 point out of 20 possible translates into a 5% increase in any of these stats. That's not really enough to even bother with. Additionally, what you buy now are different combo moves. This would be fine if any combo moves were that impressive. I played as the valkerie and the only good combo move she had was one that sucked enemies in, damaged them, and threw them out away from her. This move, however, also cost mana. Combo's - While it is nice to rack up enough combo's to be called a demi-god or immortal, the fact that a combo basically seems to be defined by the game as hitting someone within so many seconds of hitting someone else really brings a downer to the idea of a 40+ hit combo. In summary if you want a game that is easy to beat rent it, do not buy it.

Bought this item because we are die hard fans of the Guantlet series of arcade games from way back (Ninetendo, Arcades, Playstation & PS2)! Kids love the co-op play modes! Hours of endless fun! Captivating role playing game battling monsters, ogres, etc., especially for groups of 2-4! Long overdue release of an updated version for modern platforms! Wonderful 3-D gaming environments! New great improvements to the game playability! Easier to select option items during game play! Numerous possible scenarios! Role playing games provide hours of endless play options! The controller improvements are much better with layout and functionality! Although there is always room for new improvements and/or up-grades...hopefully there will be more! Overall this game is a good value buy! It is captivating...hard to stop playing once you start!

this item that i purchased was great. but one of its major flaws is that it was to short. but this game is so awesome i totally recomend you give money to people for it!

MY HUSBAND AND I REALLY ENJOYED THE GAME. I WOULD HAVE TO AGREE THAT IT WAS SHORT, BUT WE REALLY ENJOYED IT. I JUST WISH THE GAME WAS ALOT LONGER THAN IT WAS. THIS GAME IS SO MUCH MY HUSBAND ARE STILL PLAYING IT EVEN THOUGH WE FINISHED IT ALREADY.

I loved this game. It is very fun to play with a friend or 2..

My only complaint is.. it only took about 5 hours to beat!!

Now.. i am not very good at video games, unfortunatly... and my brother just is plain horrible at them...

but we found this particularly easy!!

It's often kind of repetative.. but fun nonetheless..

I like it :)

just what I ordered, used but in good condition. Shipping was a little slow but otherwise ok, and saved me a trip to the local store.

I purchased this PS2 game 2 weeks ago for my son. He really enjoyed this game, and it was fairly easy to play. The only thing I would say I disliked, would be it was too easy. Overall, I got a great deal, and made my son happy.

Classic Gauntlet gaming but was a little to short. Though the game was short my friends and I did have a blast. I only would get this if your looking for a 3 player or more game

super fast great communication will buy again thanks for the great service!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

love the game, seller was fast, everything was perfect. A++++++++++. shipment was real fast too. as far as the game goes i love the gauntlet style games its very fun and the replay value is pretty high.

Gaunlet: Seven Sorrows is a fun game. Better graphics and better enemies than Dark Legacy. One problem...it's too short. We beat the game within 10 hours. So unless you like to play a game over or unless you are into online game play, don't spend too much for this one.

the game arrived quick through the mail and works like the seller said. I recommend this seller. if all sellers are like this one i will keep shoping here. though this is my first time to buy from ebay

Fast shipping. Excellent communication.

I am a big fan of the Gauntlet games, and since I am working my way through "Dark Legacy", I decided to give this one a try as well. This is not too radically different from your typical Gauntlet game; lots of monster generators and tons of minions pouring out to dogpile on you until you can smack them down, chests full of food and gold, an annoying narrator telling you "Warrior needs food, BADLY!" and "Warrior is ABOUT TO DIE!", the classic Gauntlet features. Where it differs is that there is a connecting story line where your characters have to reclaim a kingdom from mutated monsters that were once the King's advisors, so instead of just rampaging about killing everything in sight, you have to rampage about killing everything in sight to get to the goal of freeing the kingdom. That, the graphics, and the overall feel of the game is very reminiscent of "God of War", though with a simpler storyline.

Yes, it does take a considerably shorter amount of time to beat this game, and you know what? Doesn't bother me too much at all. It strikes me as having a beginning, middle, and end, which is not a bad thing to me. The boss battles are not too hard, either, which doesn't bother me too much; this is not "God of War", to reference that game again. The ending battle, once you've played it a couple times, is easy enough, but the ending itself could be far better. Each character has their strengths and weaknesses, and the Elf is by far the weakest of the four characters to choose from here. Long story short, this is a good quick fix game for a dose of mindless fun and action, and I'm enjoying it enough, myself.

Ordered the game on 7Dec08 and it arrived before Christmas. The game does not play. The under side of the disc is a purple color and does not look origninal. Future buyers please BEWARE!!

i like the game play its a bit faster witch i like but needed to be longer though i beat it in three hours its easy but also challenging

This is a horrible game, the nintendo 64 version was much better. I had beat the game in under 3 hours and its just about the same from the first level-seventh level.

The product is in excellent new condition have played Gauntlet legends on ps2 before and loved it , havent played this as yet

One of the greatest additions to the Gauntlet saga, Along with the classic format of all players at the same time battle evil demons and monsters, They added online capabilities to this version so you can build a guild with anyone anywhere in the world. Graffix are better than ever and enhanced controls are a big bonus. Rated A++ By big Tony.


Thanx,T.

Awesome Game fast delivery and average price. It was a little scratched but did not affect the play at all.
