More information.
 
To bad most of those games never released off consoles.

Especially the champions games. Loved playing those PS2 games.
 
I remember playing the Dark Alliance games in coop with my dad. Good times.
 
I (re) bought Dark Alliance 1 & 2 for the Switch and played them both ... I know DA2 is a 'better' game, but DA1 is the one I fell in love with on the GBA and it such a nice tight little experience - whereas DA2 for me got tedious at times.
 
IIRC Justice League Heroes and Lord of the Rings - War in the North both used the snowblind engine, so are also spinoffs if you include the EQ games. All fun co-op titles for what it is worth.

I think DA1 is a better game as well. DA2 was a product of the bigger = better mindset. DA2 was still a good enough game though. I have the first one on gamecube and the second on PC.
