Zone of Enders 2nd Runner

[retroborg]

I saw Zone of the Enders 2nd Runner for the PS-2, on a TV game show. I’m impressed! I love Anime Battle Mechs like Robotech. Is this game better than Robotech Battle Cry for the PS-2 & X-Box? In Robotech, the graphics of the PS-2 version did not impress me much and the music disappointed me, since the classic Robotech music themes were only played in the intro & not through out the whole game! Is the X-Box version any better?

I don’t have a PS-2, X-Box, or GCube, but is Zone of Enders 2nd Runner worth buying a PS-2 for?
Is this also released for the X-Box, GCube? What other Cool Mech games are out?
Are the gameplay, game Music & story worth it? I give a lot of emphasis in these factors.
Thanks.

no z.o.e games i worth buying a system for mate i made the mistake of buying the first one (due to the mgs2 demo) and completed it in 3 hours- never went back- spend some cash on anime dvds etc not these poor excuses for games

Well KONAMI has a tradition in making small games. AXELAY on the SNES only had 6 Level. But they also have a tradition in making some of the coolest games ever! TwinBee, Gradius series, Ninja Turtles, MGS, etc.... I was just playing Violent Storm on MAME. Awesome Beat Em Up. I dare say it's better than Final Fight in some cases!

regardless of the length of the game the gameplay is some of the most boring and limited ive experienced- on par with a puzzle game- just hit one or two buttons over and over- what a joke

In ZOE2, Do you get to play 1 on 1, 2Player versus battle, against a friend, like Robotech Battle Cry?
Can you choose from many different levels, as the VS battle ground?

Or play the game 2PLayer Cooperative simultaneously?

You can when you have unlcoked it 1 no idea about 2 tho. I would be very surprised if the option wasnt there
