My brother and I started off Christmas with a Gamecube and 5 games. Because GC games are so expensive and we refuse to spend our hard earned money on games, we keep trading them in (when we beat them) for less and less, and now we're down to 1. This new game, Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance is really sw33t. A classic RPG (sorta like Gauntlet: Dark Legacy).....I pick the elf chick/sorceress (of course), and my brother picks the dwarf (of course) and we blast our way through sewers, deserts, caverns, icy mountains, forests, and forbidden realms. Our theory is that the system won't work with two brutes or two sorceresses, ect. Therefore, I pick the archer/sorceress, and cast magic spells and shoot enemies from a distance all to help out Brad, the slow but rediculously powerful thug who hacks the guys to pieces with an axe or pounds them into a bloody pulp with a giant war hammer. So far so good.
