i've never really been into games like this, but i started this one, and i really enjoy it. any recommendations for similar games for PS2? once this one is done i'll want to continue this style.

Champions of Norrath is pretty close, if I remember correctly. (BG: DA is the hack-and-slash, "sword guy, spell guy, or sneaky guy" game, right?)

yeah its more or less hack and slash, but that same overhead 3rd person camera angle.

CoN is cool if you're really, really into inventory management. I mean, it's a cool game, but it takes the "OMG RARE DROP" thing from MMORPGs (which, of course, it's based on, but still). Much better with a friend, the co-op is where it shines.

I had a funny feeling you'd respond to this, Steve.

They aren't really the same, but all of the Devil May Crys (especially 3) are pretty bad ass.

the first ones good.

There's a Dark allience three coming out eventually.

It's too bad DAII is so expensive.

I liked BG-DA, but never played the 2nd one, my sister has it, so maybe I'll borrow it from her after I'm done Skate, Assassins Creed and Armored Core 4. but, then again, I snagged her Wii while she's in school for this semester, so I may not ever get around to finishing the games I want to...
