THE GOOD:
Great controls, nice story, fun to play and it also gets a bit addicting after a while, and awesome graphics.

THE BAD:
Some parts of it is slow, the graphics at times can be its downfall, and it's a bit hard to control the main character at times-sorta like Dino Crisis.

SUMMARY:
Some parts of this game can really twist your mind about playing it, simply because of the horrendous gameplay. I admit that its not exactly horrendous, but still, it's a bit on the "should I really play this game? I mean the graphics are so.." type of game. I think it is worth it though, because as soon as you ignore the graphics (sorta like how we all do for FFVII), then you'll be surprised. The controls at time gets a bit tedious, but that doesn't mean it takes away much from the gameplay. The story and the action within the regular shooting makes it all worthwhile.

I would have really liked to see a bit more of this game though. I mean, I like it a...

I love everything in thsi game.The characters,the GUNNS & most emportant ALL THOSE CHANGES in CLIMAX & GUNS ARE COOL TOO>

THE BAD:
NO PART 3.

SUMMARY:
GAME IS ONE OF MY MOST FAVORITE.all those guns which are featured in this game were COOOOOOOOOL,But what I like most is if you ignore some action the climax was all changed & I still didnt beat game in NIGHTMARE lavel.Go ahead all of you peop[le who want to SURVIVE MUST TRY THIS ONE.If you love playing RESIDENT EVIL or ONIMUSHA series on PSone/PS2 this game is a must try. I hope square soft bring another part of this game for PS2 or XBOX I dont care just bring another one.One more thing about this game is cool is its LEAD CHARECTER AYA BREW:so SEXY & LETHAL.JUST TRY TRY TRY TRY TRY TRY TRY TRY TRY TRY TRY TRY................................................& you wont be desapointed.

Parasite Eve II is a consistently good-looking action-adventure game that adopts its predecessor's cinematic style to an even more impressive effect. In the original Parasite Eve, which is a role-playing game with action-adventure elements, a young New York cop named Aya Brea has to deal with an epidemic that causes people to either die or mutate as the mitochondria in their bloodstreams awaken with chaotic energy. The sequel takes place shortly thereafter and disowns most of the original's role-playing game elements in favor of action-adventure gameplay reminiscent of Capcom's Resident Evil series. And while Parasite Eve II is consequently a better, more suspenseful game, it still suffers from a few problems, including ill-conceived puzzles and a few RPG elements that shouldn't have remained.

As in the first game, Parasite Eve II initially looks just like the Resident Evil games, on account of its polygonal characters that move across static prerendered scenery depicted...

THE GOOD:
Very good graphics, nice layout, easy to navigate the menus

THE BAD:
Hard to control aya, dont get to change her name, not easy to shoot,aiming system is slow, have to press x to acend and decend stairs.

SUMMARY:
I really like the set up of the game, though i would have liked to see less text conversation and more voice convo. The graphics are amazing and i like the plot line, but i wish the creators would have stuck with the old way of controling aya she was so much easier to control now she likes to go in all directions! All in all i love the game, as i had the last one, i just wish they would not have changed it so much on the controls. I also find it harder to use the PE option you want when in battle. I like the fact that they made her look younger due to the mitochondira plot part. Another thing i noticed is in battle they put alot more obsticles in your way making it harder to manuver her along with the screwy controls in the...

THE GOOD:
Good graphics, improved gameplay, more weapons, better story.

THE BAD:
A little boring and not many places to go.

SUMMARY:
Well I am a big fan of the first and after playing this I was satisfied. It did not have the same feeling as part 1 but a good feeling none the less. I think they improved many of the problems from the first one. I like the more weapons a lot. As well as the all around gameplay. This game does lack replay value so I suggest renting it first.

THE GOOD:
Nice guns.
Better setup than the first.

THE BAD:
Some of the best guns are hard to get....

SUMMARY:
I loved the first game, but that was mainly because of the fact that you could combine guns, and I loved the story line. So, it was natural to pick this up for $20(and get Street Fighter Alpha for free). I love the guns, the puzzles(although the one in the ARK with the sliding tiles took me awhile even with the guide). The graphics are awesome. My stepbrothers, who have been corrupted by the PS2 into thinking that all PSone games have bad graphics, even admitted that this game was awesome. I don't care that the gun modification feature was removed. The new guns with attachments are fine with me....

and turkagent, you are thinking of the first game, not this greater game....

THE GOOD:
the story is square's best. Control is also nice but sometimes moving around to dodge attacks can get annoying. This proves you can have great eye candy and story all in the same game. Plus even with the R.E. controlle set up. Square gave us a preview of what they can do with cgi tech that was further pushed to new boundries with FF9 and FF the spirits within.

THE BAD:
The only complaint i have about PE2 is the story is too short even with two disks packed with the ever so lovely aya and crew. If they bring the series back onto ps2 or another system hopefully they'll work on a longer game. But it is sometimes good to have a game that is directed and to the point in it's story line.

SUMMARY:
Even with the new controlle system. the game continues the impressive story line of the series and also what makes suqare as a company a must have in the system wars.

THE GOOD:
graphics,sound,weapons,video seqences,storyline,ect.

THE BAD:
the challenge,there is too much!

SUMMARY:
this game is awsome!it has great graphics a wide assortment of wepons and items and a great story. it has great sound.and some awsome scenes that keep the story going.

one thing i didnt like was the challenge, holy crap i had to read walk thrus like 100 times to figure out the puzzles but the worst thing is the last boss what a bitch. this thing is nearly impossible to beat.

but anyway this game does give you the right clues to solve these puzzles.the game also gives you cool magic and moves to beat the bosses and enemies.


overall this game is great for people who liked the resident evil series but also liked rpgs like final fantasy games becase of its rpg like gamplay. all and all this game is awsome and is has my vote.
