This is awesome as Diablo series in PC. Like most of SOE games, Untold legends shows enough what hack'n slash is. Just buy and play. You'll know.

For a portable game, it has all the elements you want in a hack & slash. It does fine justice to the RPG genre who are all about mass spiders, pick-ups and monsters. It's a bit hard to figure out where you are, but at least your areas to cover aren't Everquest-large.

I give it an 8.5 rounding up to a 9. The game is just plain great. Basically, if you were a fan of either Diablo & Diablo 2, or Champions of Norrath for PS2, you'll like this game. It adds elements of both games, all the parts of which I enjoyed. The skill tree setup holds the same ideals as both sets of games, as well as the way you distribute stat points. The gameplay is fluid, and it's great to see a nice D2 style game finally rendered in nice resolution 3d. The fire/ice/death effects are cool additions to the game, and really show off the capability of the system. Not to mention it's all in the palm(s) of your hand! So because SOE found a way to stick a ton of great features into a fluid launch title... 9.0 Pick up this game... It's certainly worth the money, and you won't be disappointed in this handheld title. Can't wait to see where the games go on this system, as they can only get better.… Expand

Fun for a while but can get old. A Baldur's Gate/Champions of Norrath type game which holds up because it's the only rpg of any sort available for the PSP right now. Good for long trips and whiling away the hours, but trade-up as soon as a better rpg is released.

The graphics r awsome. how many games have that much action, i mean really!

A game that will keep u entertained for weeks with different races spells dwords axes bows etc..... this game is well worth buyin if u in to rpg and everquests games i think this game should be bought by all hack an slash gamers and the lv up system is good. 10/10 =) ps i enjoyed it i think this game is aimed at teens!

Just look at the difference between the "professional" reviews and the user reviews. User reviews average around 9 while the pros give it around 6? That is all you need to know. I have 9 of the PSP launch titles and have played them all. This game is by far the best! Seriously, it is as much fun as Diablo was on the PC. Graphics are great. Music is wonderful.

Love it! Not as cool as diablo, but it adds a nice, good ol' fashioned butt-kicking element to the PSP!

while i dont agree with the low ratings from all the game sites, BOTB does lack in some areas. its just about as fun as diablo but a combination of both Diablo II and BOTB would rock. graphics are great and gameplay is fun and not too simple. i would have prefered more traditional classes like mage instead of alchemist, with more traditional mage spells. i hoped for more skills but i';m not dissapointed so far. i think if it was more of a Diablo II clone i would have gave it a ten. i really miss treasure hunting in diablo II, while its pretty easy to find really good gear, the gear itself isnt as fun to find as diablo gear and i'm slightly dissapointed by the lack of different looking armors. i would also wish for the camera to be slightly more angled. even with all my complaints, this is a good PSP title to get regardless of all the game site reviews. so far i've played ridge racer, NFSU, twisted metal, and NFL street. to be honest i enjoyed them all pretty equally including UL BOTB. its worth the 40 + bucks.… Expand

Errrr hello......wake up so called official reviewer's....this game is GREAT.... Ok ignore the intro with its PANTS story and funny little 80's style pictures... WAKE up to the game and ENJOY this fantastic piece of graphical adventure action ROMP...SUPERB... I very nearly didn't buy this game because of those awful reviews...actually has me concerned about trusting these professional reviews NOW... This game is truly addictive...WARNING… Expand

First game I picked up with the PSP. I'm just blown away with the capabilites. So moving from GBA to PSP there is no comparison. With Untold Legends I was able to get my fix on RPG/Hack and Slash while travelling in a plane. I love the addictive gameplay. I don't care what type of ratings it's getting.

Very well put together game.

Eh, nothing new here, repetitive. Worth playing only if you know some other people that own it. But the graphics have to be seen to be believed.

Extremely repetitive, Abrupt ending, Poor storyline, Unbalanced characters (knights are far superior to any other character and magic never becomes as powerful as melee for any character), immitates Blizzard's Diablo however fails to achieve the most entertaining aspects. The game is entertaining until realizing that all characters are not equal and/or finishing the game upon which there is little left to do and no compelling reason to replay.… Expand

Good graphics, decent sounds and I find the loading screens pretty bearable. Unlike some, I found the stat building that goes with leveling quite rewarding. You choose from 4 character classes, and depending how you build, you could have 2 very different characters even though they may be the same class. The quests do all seem the same: Go through a dungeon, kill a boss. As others have said, if you're a fan of Baldur's Gate and Diablo 2, this is the closest thing PSP has to offer thus far. It's not bad. Maybe not the first game you should buy, but definitely worth it.… Expand

I found the game to be captivating and very enjoyable.

Visually above average, but lacks on the RPG aspect, and mainly - the random dungeon creation is a really dated concept. PSP needs a devent action-RPG, can't wait for Kingdom of Paradise.

definitely a cool game considering you can hold it in your hand, the graphics are awsome. it is similar to Diablo but not quite as long. The only drawback is that after a while the levels are kind of repetive, but there is still a lot of game play in it.

This game is good for a handheld system just like dark alliance doungeouns and dragosn ect...

Great game I highly recommend it.

Really cool game. I love it.

Limited top down only camera views mean you can't even see more than a couple of body lengths in front of you. You literally can't see where you are going, which also means you can't see monsters until they are literally on top of you. Because of the top down view, there is almost no sense of depth or distance, the 3D graphics are wasted and you basically feel like you are in a maze, a VERY boring maze. The scenes are basically made up of boxes joined together so they soon become extremely predictable and boring. For some strange reason, there is no voice acting but instead button operated book like text reading, which only serves to unsubtly pull you out of the game. No auto-save means you have to constantly pause to go through the saving process manually. The music sounds like it was recorded by someone with very limited musical ability on an old bottom of the price range Casio. This music makes the kids at my local primary school sound pretty darn good. Luckily it is more versatile than the extremely limited and senseless camera views and it can be turned off. This is one of the more impressive features of what is a very irritating and boring game. In summary, this game is a senseless waste of human time money and effort.… Expand

It would be more fun if you were forced to press more than one button the whole game. (hack, slash, hack, nothing else...)

HEY! Let's talk turkey. Will this game change your life? No. But...if you ever enjoyed the Baldur's Gate series (on consoles) or Champions or Norrath or even Diablo 1 or 2, then you WILL enjoy this game. A lot. It's got a lot of action, an interesting story and plenty of magic items to kit your customizable warrior out with. And here's something that the reviewers (positive or negative) never mention: it has awesome art and character designs. The world has a medieval/futuristic touch to it that makes for some cool-looking items and areas. Give it a shot, PSP RPG fans!… Expand

UL is a great game, not very orrigtional but great non the less.if you've played diablo 2 & loved it then you'll love UL, the two games are extremly simaler. a great portable hack & slash.

Great story, vey playable, hundreds of hours to complete - love it!

Its ok, but i got really bored about half way through, really repetitive and not very exciting, i suggest you steer clear, unless you like killing monster after monster with the same attack button!!!

Awesome! Dont let them fool you. if your a return to arms fan then your in for a treat!

Awesome game. Amazing graphics. Incredible variation of weapons. Really addicting. I almost played for ten hours straight. Gotta have game for the PSP!!!!!

What a wonderful game it was! Since I have found other games could not play for long, such as some of Racing games,but it did! It will use lots of your time to play but I think it worth. I was the fans of Diablo and like such ARPG genre so much.

This is a really good game. i recommend it to anyone who enjoys RPGs.

This game is the best!!!

I just finished the game or at least finished all of the quests I think and enjoyed it very much. Couldn't put it down. I wish Sony offered online multiplayer for this like Diablo.

I'm about done wiht this game and it is one of the funnest games i have experienced in a long time.

Bad rpg game.

Ok let me start by saying this.........this game is good to have when you have other friends that also own the game and can play with you whenever you want to just have fun.Otherwise this game is almost a waste of money in buying it. Here is an example of a battle: omg! its a boss monster! (whatever shall i do?) i guess ill just have to press the x button 200 times and then use my awesome potions that keep me from dying! YAY that biatch is dead! That is the perfect example of EVERY battle that you WILL encounter in playing this game. This game would probably appeal to small children who are interested in playing VERY simple games… Expand
