One of last few products to be birthed from the bygone halls of Black Isle Studios, 144[/reviews]]Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance II, the sequel to the Snowblind Studios-developed sleeper hit from last year, has finally shipped to shore shelves and should be at your nearest games retailer by tomorrow.



One of a few story-driven top-down dungeon crawling adventures that's set to hit consoles in the next few months (oddly enough the other two major ones, the already-released 145[/reviews]]Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel and the soon-to-be-released Champions of Norrath set in the Everquest universe, use the same underlying technology as BGDAII, making the trio all Snowblind Studios products in a way), BGDAII picked up where the first game left off, with a new set of adventurers, new environments, spells (and purdy effects to accompany them), abilities and lots more.



We hunkered down with the game and gave it a nice, long playthrough before reviewing it recently. Head on over and check out 144[/reviews]]our verdict, and then take to the stores (or order directly through us) as you see fit.
