This game was on demo disks both as a demo and as a trailer and the 10 year old me searching for new fantasy adventure games found this gem and was hooked forever. Spent many months playing this with my brother as we quested and replayed the main story over and over. To have this preserved with 4 player online support would be amazing as many of my friends ask us about this game as we won't stop talking about it still to this day. Gameplay is still fun though a bit dated but it's the memories you make with your friends as you get instant killed by a fire beetle or a bear mauls you over and over again and your friends need to bail you out of a tight jam. Please bring back one of the most underrated gems from the PS2 library and let the new generation experience everquest again.
I played this game since childhood and every time I bought it I could only play halfway because it had too much space for just one CD and I was never able to download it correctly from the internet and I would love to play the sequel again

Loved the sequel for this game, never got the chance to play this one, and nowadays it's hard to find a working PS2 copy where I live. Bringing this game to PC would allow easy access to me and many others.

This is and has always been one of my favorite fantasy games. I've tried to emulate it over the years but it never works quite right. I own both Champions of Norrath and Champions Return to Arms. I even got a second pre-owned version just so I'd be able to keep a playable copy around. Out of every game I've ever seen remastered or remade this is the one I've always hoped for the most. I'd love to be able to play this game again.

dark alliance was fun but that one was even better we need it to come back such a classic. it just a better diablo but on console wish i could still play it . and you can play with 3 friend was realy a blast
I remember playing this when I was in my early teens long after the game's release. Frustrating at first, but then really enjoyable later when you get a bit more patient and start to learn more about enemies, Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance 1 and 2 were very good, but Champions and its sequel were, at least to me, just amazing in comparison. Really dated in some of its mechanics, but still enjoyable. Would really love being able to actually buy this one.

This PS2 title is the game that got me into gaming as a kid, besides N64 titles that I'd casually play. Champions is what developed my love for similar games such as Diablo, Path of Exiles, Grim Dawn and Baldur's Gate. Having Champions of Norrath and Champions Return to Arms future proofed and playable on PC as an adult would be amazing.

This game was my go to for many years, even entering into the ps5 era I return to my ps2 to play this. I even managed to get my wife to play this alongside me. Still have my original Fat Aqua ps2 and both Champions games. Definitely would purchase this again and again if ported to pc and/or remastered with updated graphics.

Always played this with my childhood friend as a kid. Amazing game, especially the follow-up. After playing this one, we'd always wait for any news from Snowblind Studios. All games they developed with their inhouse engine were fun, alas only a few games were made. Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance I and II, Champions of Norrath and CoN Return to Arms and a fifth unaffiliated game that went by rather unnoticed. After that the studio was acquired and their gates shut. Pity for it.
Dieses Spiel hat einfach eine Portierung auf PC verdient. Mehr braucht man dazu eigentlich nicht schreiben. War einer meiner meist gespielten A-RPGs auf der PS2

Tales of the World: Radiant Mythology
Tales of the World: Radiant MythologyThe world of Terresia is under assault by a "devourer", which seeks to consume its mana and leave it barren. Although the residents of the planet are unaware, this is actually a result of the actions of two entities named Widdershin and Aurora, the descenders of other worlds. As a last resort, the world's life-giving tree (the World Tree) uses the last of its power to create a defender - the player's own character. The hero, after being awakened by a strange creature named Mormo whose own world was destroyed by the same threat, learns of the danger to this world's World Tree. Upon hearing a scream, the player rushes to discover that a girl is being attacked by a soldier. After rescuing the girl, she introduces herself as Kannono, a member of an organization named Ad Libitum. This guild seeks to help the people of the world, fighting injustice and oppression. With no better leads, the player and Mormo set out to join Ad Libitum, hoping to learn more about the location of the devourer.
