Dungeon Hunter: Alliance (PS3)

[ZombieHorde]

Dungeon Hunter: Alliance is a top down action rpg, similar to Diablo, Baulder's Gate, and Champions of Norath. It is available for download on the PS store for under $15. I am just going to bullet point its features...

-Great graphics
-Three classes: Warrior, Mage, Thief
-Each class has 21 unique skills
-Local and online multiplayer
-Tons of loot
-You can sell items at any time, but you will get more money if you sell your items at a store
-Save anywhere
-Equip a fairy to use a powerful, once per minute spell. You begin with a bad ass lightning fairy.
-Extremely fun
-Compatible with the PSMove, but you don't need one. I don't own one, so I haven't tried it.

Controls

X: Attack
O,T,S: Class Skills
Left Stick: Move
Right Stick: Scan large map
R1: Action
R2: Switch Weapon Set
R3: Large Map
L1: Potion (potions heal both health and magic)
L2: Fairy Spell

Select: Character Sheet, Level Up, Equip Items, etc.

If you love mindless RPG hack 'n' slash, and have an extra 15 bucks, you should definitely get this game.

1. I've been looking at this

My Sacred 2 disk cracked and I have not found another copy yet, plus Diablo III is not out until late this year or early next and I've had a jones for mindless ARPG'ing. I read the description of this in the PS store and was a little hesitant if this would fit the bill or not, sounds like it will, cool. Thanks!

2. My wife and I have been really enjoying it, but she was pissed by the lack of girl characters.

She is really enjoying the thief she made though.

Anyone who loved Baulder's Gate or Champions of Norath on the PS2 will also love Dungeon Hunter.

3. How many can play multi?

I'm trying to talk my wife into doing this, so we have something else to do together. My daughter and I used to play Champions of Norrath (and X-Men Legends, and Ultimate Marvel Alliance), so she might want to join in, too.

4. Online, 4; local, at least 2. I don't know if local play supports 4 players.

For local multiplayer, player one starts a game, and then another player presses Start on another controller. The other player can either play an already established character from another game, or create a new character.
