    What was once a fresh and innovative design now feels like every other generic RTS ever made.
  2. Perimeter 2 works like a time machine to the year 2004. At first glance it looks like its predecessor without any changes... unfortunately, you'll soon find out Perimeter 2 has changed to a sterile and dull strategy.
  3. Gameplay becomes redundant quickly. It's very unbalanced.
  4. Sadly, this sequel is a lesser game in almost every way. [May 2009, p.68]
  5. The maps are boring, units weedy, AI absent, trooper non-responsive, graphics dire, sound effects pathetic, music repetitive, resource gathering system incomprehensible, and the storyline, as mentioned, is woeful. [Aug 2009, p.75]

    This is an awful game. A lot simpler than the first game in the series, but sadly they also removed all of the fun. The units are bland and basically small, medium and large versions of the same idea, the bases generic, and every match plays basically identically to each other. I expected this to at least be decent, but it didn't even manage to be mediocre. Full Review »

    Agreed the game isn't as good as the first but thats what you get from a high expectation sequal! The game isn't perfect but can be fun - my only real regret for the game is the totally and i mean TOTALLY useless AI - if they're flooded they don't care, they will charge headfirst into your turrets and ust die out making the campaign laughably easy. Apart from that i've seen worse. Full Review »

    I think I made it to the second map, if you could call it that. This game is horrible... wish I could get my money back for it. Its a button masher, without many buttons to mash... I feel sorry for my mouse as it took the brunt of my frustrations as I began to click harder and harder, the more frustrated I got with this game. Dont buy it please... this company needs to go out of business to save the rest of us from their future bad game. Full Review »
