Video Game Reviews of Mega Man Star Force 2 Zerker X Saurian
Customer Review: Extras and gameplay make up for a fairly weak story (4.5/5)
Summary: 5 Stars
Five stars may be a bit high of a rating, 4.5 may be more appropriate, but seeing as how much time and enjoyment I got out of this game I see no problem rounding up. Also, I am a die hard fan of the Battle Network and Star Force series, so there is sure to be a little bias. Anyway, I will try and examine the seperate parts of the game without trying to sound too much like a fanboy.
Story - This is by far the weakest point of the game. Aside from the very back end of the game, the story never really sucks you in. There are certain interesting parts, but overall the story just comes off as silly. This may work towards the younger crowd, but for me it was nothing special. The story is by no means terrible, but it is not really good.
Gameplay - Now this is where the game shines in my opinion. I like the over the shoulder perspective, and there are a bunch of cards to collect. With around 200 different cards you have plenty of options for folders.
As far as enemies go there are plenty of unique ones to be found. Of course there are some recycled enemies/bosses from the previous installment but overall they seemed to be pretty diverse. The bosses in particular are unique. They each have a different play style, and you will have to go in with a different strategy for each of them. The one problem, however, is that the versions of the bosses you fight in the story are easy.
There are also transformations unique to each file, and I personally found them a blast to play as. You can double tribe if you have brothers, and when you triple tribe you transform into the awesome Tribe King. On the flip side if you are a loner, or simply do not have wifi, you can collect certain items to acquire the Rogue form. Overall there are plenty of transformations, all of which are fun to play as.
Extras - There are plenty of extras in this game. There is an extra area after you beat the main story, which has an interesting story to it. There are 51 fairly easy side quests, as well as a super version of the final boss. One thing that can also be used to enhance your experience are Wave-Command codes. They enable you to upgrade viruses as well as bosses, and they let you acquire secret cards. They can also be used for items or tribe transformations.
Another interesting extra for this game is Wifi battling. Wifi battling allows you to face off against either your friends, or a random worldwide opponent. You will sometimes run into cheaters, but for the most part it is a fun experience. It requires you to use some strategy, and you get to test your abilities against others.
Final Verdict- In closing Star Force 2 is more of the less what you would expect in a BN/SF game. There is not much innovation, but if you are a fan of the series like I am, then you should find this game enjoyable. If you are more of a classic style Mega Man fan, then you should probably just wait for Mega Man 9. Overall it may not be a game for everybody, but I sure did enjoy it.
