  1. Not only will you have no desire to play it again once you finished it, but you are also highly unlikely to be sufficiently motivated to finish it once, in the first place.
  2. If the problems with getting the game to run weren't enough reason to keep you away from Chaos Legion, then the boring gameplay and graphical shortcomings should be reason enough.

    It was already forgettable on consoles, but Capcom completely drops the ball with this malfunctioning PC port.
  4. I've birthed children in less time than it takes the game CDs to fire up. [Aug 2004, p.83]
  5. Romping through "Diablo" one more time is both more gothic and more fun. [Apr 2004, p.75]
  6. The terrible camera angles will force you to constantly use the manual camera adjustments, which is part of the reason you get killed so often and have to restart levels. [Mar 2004, p.62]

    To be honest I do not understand why everyone seems to hate this game. The presentation is decent and the fighting is real fun - there's not enough games of this kind for the PC except maybe Devil May Cry but personally I must say that I enjoyed this game much more than DMC 3 and 4. The level design is interesting and quite varied and I really liked the game's atmosphere. And the "Legion" system is something really unique. Also I do not understand the complaints concerning the conversion - this game always worked fine for me and the controls are as good as they can get (and it's stupid to play this kind of games without using a gamepad anyway).

    I got this game on sale, remembering that the reviews were ok, so i figured i'd at least try it. what i got was a very generic hack and slash game, with a story line that did not in any way effect the game play. pretty much, it was either, kill all the monsters or kill the boss monster, and after that, a video trying to explain the killing, but failing. now granted, if you enjoy kill everything button mashers, then play away, if you don't, then don't buy this game.
