    After the flop of DMC2 it's refreshing to know that Capcom isn't out of it yet. This game takes the action of the original DMC and improves on it. It also takes the Legions and makes them more tactical than hack n slash. I like the way the Legions can kick ass/get ass kicked, meaning the only thing you can rely on is how well you fight with Seig.

    I thought the game was a lot of fun. It really never ends until each one of your legions is fully powered so it's not short if you want to beat it 100%. Great movies, and I liked the music in it too!

    This game is insane, and reminds me of that game Devil May Cry, i would say, this game is worth getting. also the replay value is fantastic.

    Sorry, but this game sucked. I will give it some points for the legions, but those are the only points it gets... that and the main guys hair. I think it is a 3rd. rate Drakengerd, storyline sucked, and fights sucked, one sword, no up-grades for it, and who ever said the main guy even comes close to being as cool as Cloud (FF7) is a dumb-ass. the game dosent have much to offer but the same boring battles and singel button game play, though the movies were all right. … Expand

    I mostly liked the music in the game, especially the music at the 'press start' menu. I liked everything. I only wish there were more levels.

    Screw everyone who didn't like this game. It's beautifully done, has a good story and the Legions are cool and helpful. It was great! I love all Capcom games and this is no exception. Seig is awesome!

    Chaos Legion brings something different to the table that a lot of other free style RPG games have been missing and thats the ability to summon and command up to six allies to help destroy thousands of enemies in beutiful and long stages that doesn't have any kill joy puzzles to solve that makes even the most intense action seem so dull that you'll hesitate to play the game like any of the games from the Devil May Cry or the Onimusha series, that is why it's so much more addictive and better and less boring than them.… Expand

    Can you say 'vote padding' much? The graphics were dull and lifeless back when they game shipped, the controls were overly simple, the first 5 or 6 stages are mostly indistinguishable from one another, the enemy designs are neat, but are hampered by ugly textures, and the game overall lacks a feeling of freedom, as using the wrong legion during a fight will get you stomped. The people rating this game 10 are either blind, ignorant, or are very annoyed game devs who feel the need to make their game seem like an underdog. Less fun that Devil May Cry 2. Bottom line.… Expand

    Non-stop action and customizeable battle-buddies makes this game rock solid, especially for all those DMC2 fans out there. This game kicks @$$.

    I got this game on August 15, 2005 and I barely played it b/c i had things to do but i was very anxious to play it. Even though I barely played it I played enough of it to know that it will be even cooler so all of those who think i am rating this game to soon oh well and for the two of the 20+ people who rated this game who said it sucked well screw you, you wouldn't know a great game if it came up and bit you in the butt. so back off… Expand

    Really nice game here! Sure, the story's a bit whacked, but I just happen to like those kinda plots! I love using Legions whenever it's necessary, just like a tactical person.

    Intruiging plot, fast paced, with replayability value, not as easy as it seems, and the AI does a great job, not allowing this game to be a typical hack n slash.

    Okay Chaos Legion is basically a beat 'em up with a twist, you can summon monstars called legions to support you. The legion can perform strong attacks, but you have to give out orders for them to do that, but the best part about the legions is the way they boost up your main character. You can gain combos, magic attacks, extra strength, defense, life and just about anything else from your legions. The gameplay is extremely fun seeing how you can level up your legions and do it all with syle. However the game isn't as stylish as I would wish it would be. The games graphics are actually really good. People complain about the mass amount of fog in this game, but I actually find the fog to give off a fantastic atmospere. Enemies and characters all look pretty good. The games sound however is it's weak point. The voice actors in English are okay at the best. The Japanese acting is a bit better but could have been done a bit nicer. The music started off great but the farther in the game you got, the less music played. The story is actually pretty good. It actually only seems good to me becuase it reminds me of old fantasy games with their awkward storylines. Overall, Chaos Legion is one Fantastic game with enough replay value to make me atleast rent this game a few times, if not buy it. However many people will be turned off by the games sound and repetitive gameplay.… Expand

    I'm kind of trying to rewrite my review here to give people a better explanation of the game. Ok to start off, Chaos Legion is an action/RPG where you can summon legions, monsters that help you fight off the thousands of enemies, and gain abilities from your legions. I loved the idea of the legions and yes they did pull it off very well in my opinion. The gameplay is a basic hack 9;n slash with you being able to do very limited attacks, but the legions and the abilities they give you really spiced up the gameplay for me. However, if there was one thing I could change about the gameplay, it would be the option to combo attack, kind of like in Devil May Cry or even Dynasty Warriors 4. Still Chaos legion is on addictive game that will keep me going for months or so, the RPG elements let you level up your Legion's abilities, attack, defense, number summoned, etc. The graphics in this game were actually real nice. The characters and monsters where all highly detailed, the enviroments had a nice atmosphere to them, and the fog that was put there to prevent slowdown actually increases the atmosphere of the game. This games downfall, however is in the sound. The first stage had a great synphony that really added to the game, however later one the best music you will have is, well actually nothing, thats right, the game quites its orchestra and just leaves the music out of the game. The voice acting is also pretty bad. I didn't find anyones voice to be any good, however you could always switch to Japanese, which I found out after I beat the game. The storyline in the game is also very weak, not understanding everything that has happened until the end, which could have been good, but it still leaves some plot holes, but hey I liked that storyline well enough. Overall, Chaos Legion is a highly addictive and Awesome game to at the very least rent. However I can see tons of people hatingthis game so watch out.… Expand

    I LOVE Chaos Legion! I haven't beaten it yet....*pout* but my best friend did, yet I STILL love it! ^,^ It has wonderful graphics, great gameplay and an overall COMPLETELY interesting storyline! I think that Sieg is one of THE COOLEST video game characters EVER! He's up there with Cloud (FFVII) And Link (LOZ)!! Chaos Legion is AWESOME! ^,^

    nice game but slightly repetative combat and some bad level design mask a otherwise awesome and engaging game. Awesome graphics and cool legion design makes the icing on the cake tasty but the icing covers a slightly sour cake. Gameplay should be a little easier on the player, especially boss battles.

    Although it's a beautiful game full of nonstop, relentless action, Chaos' flaws turn a potentially stellar title into merely a solid one for genre fans. [July 2003, p.96]

    An above average action game for the PS2 that has some great character designs and a world that needs more fleshing out. Still with all it's small faults it's still a game I keep coming back to just to witness another beatdown, and if a game can do that it's not so bad in my book.

    Although its replay value leaves a bit to be desired, Chaos Legion is still a decent brawler with some clever combat and stylish visuals.
