Parasite Eve II for PlayStation 1

Pros: Beautiful cut scenes, nice sound, creepy atmosphere.
Cons: The Resident Evil-style control scheme makes the game more challenging than necessary

Back in 1998, RPG giants Squaresoft decided to tinker with the standard role-playing game formula. Instead of simply offering up yet another tale set in either the medieval past or the sci-fi future wherein you and a group of friends must save humanity...

Pros: It's a Squaresoft game!
Cons: Resident Evil 3 is better.

Everyone’s favorite gun-toting blonde is back. After that New York incident 3 years ago, Aya Brea is once again on the warpath, meaner than ever with a brand new outfit to boot. Things are somewhat different this time round. To start with, she has traded...

Pros: 2 words: astounishing graphics
Cons: 2 words: Resident Evil

Why oh why did they do that. I love Parasite Eve. I enjoyed the first series VERY much, so much I spend at most 3 days beating it.

It was a great game, one of the best masterpiece of RPG I ever played.

BUT...

I did...

Pros: Decent graphics, excellent sound
Cons: Direct ripoff of Resident Evil for controls, direct ripoff of Fear Effect for plot

Note: a copy of this game was provided to me by Squaresoft

I must admit, even I do get the urge to just sit back and blow the living dead to pieces with a shotgun. What, did you think I refused to play anything that wasn't turn based in some...

Pros: Story,cut scenes,control
Cons: No more customizable weapons

Parasite Eve, one of the first games to successfully combine the survival/horror and RPG genres. It featured a strong story, innovative combat system, and customizable weapons and armor. Not to mention an interesting lead character. All wrapped up in...

Pros: graphics and sound effects are great
Cons: that blasted control scheme, certain plot elements are "lifted" from RE

In a genre almost completely dominated by Capcom, Square has managed to do the impossible; beat the creator of such great games as Resident Evil and Dino Crisis at its own game. While Parasite Eve 2 appears to have stolen several great ideas from its...

Pros: Good graphics
Cons: Too short, poor control

I rented this game about a week ago after having seen the advertisement for it on tv. I've been a big squaresoft fan for quite some time, and I always like to try out their latest games. This game comes with two cds.

Story
I...

Pros: Good graphics, solid puzzles, okay story
Cons: awkward controls, no voice overs, reloading weapon time, short game

Parasite eve 2 is a mixture of Resident Evil and the earlier versions of final fantasy but it doesn't fully takes on all these aspects of these two games. I wouldn't consider this a full RUG just because its not as involved and your not interacting with...

Pros: Sequel to Parasite Eve, Aya Brea
Cons: Resident Evil look-alike, Rehash of first game, Coke

When I first heard about Parasite Eve's sequel- and saw its cover- I ran to the local gaming shack and reserved my copy on the spot. Heck, with the guarentee it would take more time to complete than the original, pack more CG, and throw a few new twists...

Pros: greta gameplay, fun to play, great graphics, good story and more...
Cons: none

I'm sure you'd like to know more about Parasite Eve II. I would have to agree that the first Parasite Eve was a sort of let down in a sense that it was very short, although I just loved the plot and of course, Aya. In the second PE, they made it more...

Pros: Great Survival Horror gameplay, subtle and partially unique innovations abound
Cons: Control and an overall unpolished, unfinished game

Before the Xeno3998 procedes with this newest product review, I must say that the five star system you see for the final score, is most definitely NOT how the Xeno3998 reviews her gameseses. Foist avalle, Three stars is better than average, it signifies...

Pros: Great Graphics, Intense Story
Cons: Play Control too close to Resident Evil, Ending Disapointing

It has been almost three years since the mitochondrion out break in Manhattan, and in that time, the outbreak has taken a bit of a different twist. Now, there has been a spread of NMCs (Neo-Mitochondrion Creatures) in the Western USA.

After...

Pros: A sequal starring Aya Brea!
Cons: Everything else...

Back story (if you can call it one).
Parasite Eve II is (obviously) the sequel to Squaresoft's Parasite Eve, The "cinematic RPG".

It's been long said that a sequel is invariably not going to be "up to par" with it's predecessor....

Pros: Graphics, a pretty good action game, several guns and creatures to fight and find
Cons: not an RPG some repetitive concepts

Parasite Eve 2, the sequel to Squaresoft's 1998 unique action/RPG returns to the playstation for some more mutated creature blasting excitement. Those of you out there who were "wowed" by the first instalment of the series will have to take a...

Pros: Simpler than the first. Better graphics. Creepier. More guns.
Cons: Some of the puzzles are TOUGH. The game is shorter than the first PE.

Parasite Eve was truly a cinematic experience, but it's battle engine was kind of cumbersome and harrowing. Parasite Eve two makes a truly great leap as Aya Brea tries to stop the Mitochondrian menace once again, only this time she's not the only one...
