  AGH Review -- Gauntlet Legends (Nintendo 64)
Gauntlet Legends gives you eight characters to choose from -- the original four (Warrior, Valkyrie, Archer and Wizard) and four alternative characters (Minotaur, Tigress, Jackal and Falconess.) Fear not, classic fans.
N64 Gauntlet is nearly identical except in the visuals and sound departments, as you'd expect.
For example, an often-used strategy (in both the original and this one) is to have the warrior be the point man and battle the grunts as the Elf and Wizard attack from the air from long range, and have the Valkyrie protect the rear.

 Gauntlet Legends Review
The PS version of Gauntlet Legends was expected to be released earlier but Midway wasn't happy with the result so they decided to go with a developer switch (Atari to Midway) and that delayed the game for about 4-5 months.
Gauntlet compared to the N64 port needs a lot more polish, the characters are rough around the edges and the visual experience is just awkward.
Gauntlet Legends is a very worthy conversion by Midway, I am not disappointed much with this version of GL.

 Gauntlet Legends - GameCritics.com
Gauntlet helped usher in a new generation of costly quarter-munchers that literally sucked the money right out of kids' pockets (it was the only game at the time in which you would lose health by simply standing around).
Legends is still not without negatives, as all the apparent depth in the game was not obvious.
Legends manages to be a good (but not great) example of both of these styles of gameplay and have melded them successfully into a neat hybrid.

 Welcome to the GameVortex
Perhaps the only weird graphical issue is that some of the sprites (especially grass) seem to rotate of their own desire, causing a little bit of weirdness as you move through the levels.
The game is basically a remake of the original Gauntlet, in luxurious 3D and with complexity not possible on the 8-bit systems of the time that the first game reigned in the arcade.
