Hmmm... It really isn't anything like gauntlet... It's more like Diablo, only you get to control more than 1 character at a time (although Dungeon Siege 1 and 2 are a bit more tactical than Diablo). The games both are a bit dated, but if that doesn't bother you, you should give either one a shot. =) I'm sure people would give you their advice on which one is better, but I like both equally for different reasons to be honest. From what I understand, though, neither 1 or 2 will be like the third one Obsidian is working on. 3 looks more like your traditional console action RPG (like Sacred 2, or Baldur's gate). Hope that helps. =)
