  1. This game is, to me, nothing more than a sad attempt to cash in on the nominal successes of the first game.
  2. A very average action game that’s only funny when it isn’t trying to be. Vaporizing humans and terrorizing cities in a big flying saucer is still fun, but the missions are decidedly of this world.

    Pretty much following the exact same formula from the previous game, except this time fixing out all the bugs. Characters are as lively as ever and there are a ton of pop culture references to keep you amused.

    The Only real downside to the game is that, while everything has been improved from the first game, there are very few significant new aspects. But this is a minor detail as the game itself is fantastic and it'S doubtful you'll notice.

    Overall:
    Took everything from the first game and made it better. A great sequel to a great game.

  2. My single favorite adventure game on the PS2. I liked playing as the alien defeating the humans and not the humans defeating the aliens. Fun weapons, funny characters and huge maps make this one to rush out and get this minute. PLAY THIS GAME! Full Review »

    A very funny game. There's a fair bit of crude humor and some stronger language, so don't let the young ones play, or even watch you play. Aside from that, however, this game is an improvement over the original. Lot's of new guns, some new mind powers, and, of course, the sixties makes this game more than a distraction, it makes it enjoyable. Full Review »
