I've known of this game since the Dreamcast days. I never really played it because I was saving it for the right moment. You know, when a bunch of friends come over and we all decide that some mindless co-op hack-and-slash is what we really want to do at that moment. Needless to say, that occasion never arose and the game collected dust in a box.
It still does.
However, a friend recently bought a multi-tap for his PS2 and decided to pick up games that took advantage of it. Gauntlet happened to be one of the cheapest available at that moment, so we popped it in for a little warmup. (note that it was only two of us...so the actual multi-tap has yet to see some use).
Anyways, the game really is fun. Yes, it is mindless hack and slash with no strategizing, resource or inventory management or anything you would presume necesarry for a "good" game. It is still fun. The graphics are woefully outdated (for PS2 standards). But it is still fun.
After a few hours we concluded that we would probably play it again some more and that the experience system sucks. Oh! We also decided that there really isn't much difference between any of the characters and that it is really cool that you save each character individually.
