I have played untold legends games before, and they are all generally hack and slash, so this was to be expected. Still the graphics were pretty good and the storyline entertaining (played as the female). I also liked how the swords and armor looked different depending on what was equiped and which type. There were a few frustrating moments when the character got stuck on the side of a wall or boulder while fighting, but these were all momentary glitches. I bought this game used for a fraction of the price after reading all the poor reviews, but overall I found it a great game and a decent first try/quick release for the PS3.

Untold Legends: Dark Kingdom is one of those games that doesn't have an inch of originality ANYWHERE. It's simply a game where you walk around slashing everything in sight. Of course, that alone is only a small bit of the problem. The main thing that makes this such a forgettable game is how the controls have a habit of not doing what you want them to do, which means, if a bunch of enemies are attacking you, good luck trying to defeat all of them. The controls aren't responsive and the whole game feels rushed. You might want to avoid this one.

Like many other PS3 launches, this game is below par. Firstly, the CGI storyline portion of the game was minimal. It's really dissapointing and less rewarding when you finish off levels and expect to be rewarded with a cool cut scene but faced with below par graphics. I really think the makers of this game (I believe it was Sony) rushed it to be among the few launch title of the PS3.
Speaking of graphics, the camera angle of the game was terrible. It's annoying when you fall of certain areas of the game because the camera was not aligned properly. You have three characters to choose from but really they are all similiar. Furthermore, the different characters do not have their own story line. The game was just about hacking and slashing endlessly. The ending totally blew it for me. It left me with that unsatisfied feeling. While some might like it, I absolutely hated it. I won't say much to spoil things.
Not all are bad though. I did enjoy some of the spells.
In conclusion, save your money and give this a miss (if you read many other reviews, they do say the same thing). It's time these game developers realize that they play an important role in making good fun and enjoyable games using the engine these new generation consoles provide. I'm tired of wasting money on games like this. If you want a better RPG game, go for the Marvel Ultimate Legends..seriously. The storyline was better. The game experience was better too.

Its a hack and slash game. The intermitant smattering of "old speak" comes off kind of cheesey. I enjoyed hitting things with a hammer for a couple of evenings. It was kind of nice to look at.

I have thoroughly enjoyed this game. In fact, it is the first PS3 game that I have completely finished. Since I don't generally play RPGs, I can't compare it to Baldur's Gate, etc. But why waste your time comparing Dark Kingdom to PS2 games? This game, along with Resistance, and Ridge Racer, is an exciting introduction to the wonderful world of PS3. Here are two good reasons to buy it: stunning graphics and fun fighting. Hack-n-Slash has never been so beautiful!!! Going back to PS2 games after playing this is downright painful. Perhaps some of the previous reviewers should develop their character's magic powers a bit more; I really don't spend much time "hacking."
But yes, the storyline is a bit thin, the cut scenes are rudimentary, and camera angles are sometimes awkward. No doubt, the PS3 will someday have a ground-breaking RPG, but for now, Untold Legends: Dark Kindgom is a ton of fun.
