Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Saw this was out in jewel case for 10 bux (as of this review) and thought I might help you decide.Rest assured this game for this price is a great buy, here's why:
Graphics & Sound: the game looks great.Though some say there are better 3D type games out today this one pulls off the look well and the graphics are smooth.The environments look dazzling and there is little in the way of graphic glitches on most machines.The soundtrack and sound effects are great; and all of the sound fits the mood and environment of the game well.Some of the sound effects are amazing: echoes in caves and tunnels, bones crunching for skeletons, etc...Turn it up and enjoy!
I should note that the camera controls take a little getting used to - though you can modify all options via the in-game menus.Make sure you adjust all the settings to suit your needs and tastes (there are many customizable facets via Options)...
Gameplay & Fun factor: Nothing bad to say at all!Of course if you don't like running around beating up monsters, collecting treasure and magical toys, and saving the world then don't bother with this title: because that is what Dungeon Siege is all about!The story is simple and effective, getting you inot the action fast and furious.The game moves more or less nonstop and although there aren't any complex options for customizing characters or developing skills the simplicity makes the game that much more fun.There are more complex role-playing games out there - Dungeon Siege is not one of them.
If you have a home network this game is a blast.There isn't any adult-only materials in the game that I recall: save for the skeletons and monsters that can sometimes be a little gross.There is blood and gore but it can be switched off via the Options menu.
The original Dungeon Siege comes with 2 playable multi-player maps: the single-player campaign map and another map with a different storyline and slightly different world types.This is a great value for people playing multiplayer games!
Performance & System Notes: the specs on the package (recommended configuration) will run the game very well.Be sure that your Video & Sound drivers are up to date (very important) and disable any background programs (like virus scanners) to improve performance.
The various in-game options to configure video and sound allow for a broad range of optimization: even if your PC is slower or has trouble running the default settings you might be able to tweak it and play at a decent rate.
The 4 stars in this review reflects the fact the game, for some, can get very repetitive: there's a lot of killing monsters, finding treasure, and completing quests - if that bores you after the 300th monster slain then Dungeon Siege may get on your nerves.Happy hunting.

Game Setting:Your adventures take place in the Kingdom of Ehb is one of the youngest states bordering the Plain of Tears. Protected by a ring of superb fortifications and heir to the 10th Legion-arguably one of the best trained armies in the world the Kingdom of Ehb has so far been shielded from the raids and invasions that have devastated many of its neighboring states on the Plain. Within Ehb's borders there is an astonishing diversity in geography and cultures. Most inhabitants worship Azunai an ancient god of the pre-Imperial Agallan Peaks. Dwarves and men live together in harmony and bow to the same king. Sorcerers are also more accepted than in other countries thanks in large part to the efforts of Merik Grand Mage and Warden of Shadows of the 10th Legion. And in the heart of the kingdom a strange and often contrary race called the Droog is allowed a degree of autonomy despite its sometimes-troublesome alliances. It is a country in search of an identity caught between the glories of a fallen past and the potential for an even greater future. Despite several crises Ehb has never fallen to an enemy. But at any time the course of events could turn down a bleaker path.Features:Group Comb
