Gauntlet: Seven Sorrows Preview

GameSpot has put together a preview of Midway's Gauntlet: Seven Sorrows, after playing a near-finished copy of the action RPG's PS2 version. A snippet:
At the end of each level, you'll be able to spend any experience points that you've accumulated on increasing your health, damage, and mana-regeneration attributes. Additionally, any gold that you've collected can be spent on learning powerful new moves for your character. Many of the new moves you learn are used in-game by entering a simple sequence of two or three button presses, although a number of them are tied to directions on the otherwise superfluous D pad. The moves that you acquire as you progress through the game are what really separate the four playable characters. One of our favorite moves for the wizard, for example, is a powerful area-of-effect attack that hits all enemies and generators in a relatively wide radius. Meanwhile, our favorite warrior attack is a simple two-hit melee combo that sets enemies on fire.
