 Best of the Series July 16, 2007
Its a classic. Resident Evil 2 took what the original Resident Evil had and expanded it four times and made it a ton better. This is one of my all-time favorite games. I love the storyline and characters presented in this game (and series). This one is even more creepy. It actually made me drop my controller from being startled at one point. I recommend this to any RE, horror or video game fan.
Pretty nice game June 4, 2007

Okay, so it's a port. A genius port. And, yes, there are slightly rounded out, SLIGHTLY better graphics. Let's be serious, Capcom tried to cash in on this, but I think it came out for a good reason. Who wants to play a PS2 anyway with a PSX game? Haha. Anyway, the only way for you to get the complete RE series is with the Nintendo Gamecube because of the RE remake and RE0. It's worth it, people. Yes, it's the same game. THE SAME GREAT GAME. And, if you get your hands on this rare, pricy gem, get RE3 Nemesis as well, pick up the others for a mere few bucks apeice (RE:$10, RE0: $12, RE4: $14, RECVX: $25 [rare.]) Why all the complaining? Buy if you're a Nintendo, RE, or just plain zombie fan.
RE2 for the GC is excellent August 4, 2006

Leon Kennedy and Claire Redfield are about to have one helluva night in Raccoon City. Upon both of their arrivals, they come face to face with terrorfying zombies that were once the citizens of the city! RE 2 takes the player through both Leon's and Claire's fear inducing, action packed scenarios to uncover what happened in Raccoon, find Claire's brother - one of the heroes in Resident Evil 1 - all while trying to survive.
The gameplay still remains as great as it was in this PS-to-Gamecube port. You choose a character, be it Leon or Claire, run around, solve puzzles, collect items and weapons like herbs, shotguns, upgrades for the handguns, etc all while shooting up zombies & other monsters that will surley freak you out in some way. If you beat the game with a certain rank, you can unlock the Hunk & Tofu missions (yes, Tofu is literally a big piece of tofu with a beret on lol) where basically you have to just get to the roof using a limited supply of weapons and healing items.
I'll admit, I'm a bit dissapointed with the graphics. Back when the game was first made I was amazed at how everything looked.. but that was back in what, 1997? Compared to today's graphic standards, Resident Evil 2 is a joke with extremley pixalated characters and blood, not to mention the characters mouths dont even move. You really wont be amazed with the graphics at all unless you are looking for some nostalgia like I was.
The sound effects and music are still awesome. The guns still sound powerful, and the voice acting (except when Leon screams "ADA!" at the end of the game) is still really good. The sounds of zombies moaning, Lickers' claws tapping cement, and the other ghoulish SFX made by the monsters still spook me a bit. The music is interesting to say the least. Sometimes you are given a welcoming, soft tune one minute then turn around to be trapped in a devastating, soul shattering, haunting tune. I love it!
To end my review, I really suggest if you haven't played Resident Evil 2 by now then the Gamecube version is perfect for you. To other RE fans, you may just want to rent it to say you played it again... I on the other hand loved this game.
 Resident Evil 2 for Game Cube is a huge let down March 2, 2006

The title pretty much says it, but basically after playing RE1, which I had never played before GC, I was instantly hooked on the game and naturally wanted to check out the others in the series. Unfortunately, in part 2 nothing was done to remake the game, the game looks like an old super nintendo game, the graffics are weak and very 2-D. The sound is not much better, and after playing an extremely challenging RE1 which took a good 2 months to beat, I was sadly able to beat RE2 in 1 week. And this is significant as I am NOT a gamer, so if I can beat it in one week, a true gamer probably would beats this thing in 8 hours. Here are my ratings by category: Graffix 2/5, Sound 3/5, Game Controls 4/5, Over-all 2/5. Don't waste your money on this, if you really love the RE series, rent this one.
