Hello everyone,
I was looking to start up a new game with a friend on the Xbox. I liked Baldur's Gate II a lot, it was an awesome 2P experience. Are there games similar for the Xbox that someone could recommend us?
Thanks,
Jeremy

Baldur's Gate
Baldur's Gate II: Dark Alliance
Champions of Norrath
Champions Return to arms
Gauntlet Dark Legacy (Not as good, but a decent arcade feel.)

Ok thanks for the list. The Champions games look amazing, however they are for PS2. Is there anything comparable on XBox? Gauntlet is nice but not RPGish enough for me.

the xmen legends games are supposed to be really good for multiplayer, and they have similar play to baldurs gate.

I believe there was a game called Demon Stone for the xbox that had baldur's gate type of gameplay, I don't know about multiplayer though. If you check damn near any best buy, they have it on the frontlanes game end cap for like 4.99.

Bard's tale is very similar to playing as the moon elf on baldur's gate 2. It is an awesome game with a very funny dialogue. Unfortunately, it is only a 1 player game.
Dungeons and Dragons Heroes was game similiar to BG, but more generic. And was an XBox exclusive. Demon Stone is a D&D game, but offer no multiplayer, just multiple characters a single player controls.

FREDI really liked D&D Heroes. To me, it played better and had a teenie bit more depth than BG: Dark Alliance.
Poofta!

the xmen legends games are similar but much more action oriented. same wiht marvel ultimate alliance.
ill also call out fallout: brotherhood of steel but that game isnt very good... it does grow on you though.
the best and closest you can get though is definately the norrath games for ps2. they are developed by the same company and have even very similar GUI!

Fallout sounds like a fun one. I also found Hunter Redeemer in the discount bin. That might be good as well. Thanks guys for the ideas!

Demon stone plays *exactly* like LOTR: Two Towers (developed by the same team, as well). There is sadly no multiplayer.
Xbox kinda lacks these titles. If you do end up digging Xmen Legends, there is also Justice League Heroes. Multiplayer as well, but not as deep.
