The whole game seems like an exercise in monotony; a battle-tech demo with refreshing character design. [Sept 2006, p.62]

This is a consistently entertaining piece of fluff that sticks to an idea and doesn't stray too far from it. [Issue 144, p.96]

Only marginally better then its predecessor and still suffers from many of the exact same flaws that made the first game so dismal.

Very fast-paced, very stylish, and with a ton of 'leet' content and delightfully overpowered weapons. It can get repetitive, but I've played it on and off for 5 playthroughs (omg!) and it's still fun to find new ultra-rare loot and test it out on hordes of enemies. Besides, the art style and the music is pretty awesome.… Expand

Sometimes I consider myself lucky to have grabbed a game before reading the reviews. Rengoku 2 is a great example: this game is an excellent handheld, with a slick look, nice UI and easy controls. The storyline is minimal, but the combat and customization of your mech are detailed....but not so much as to overwhelm you. Another reviewer mentioned that this game's reviews seem to forget that the PSP is a portable system, not a console where you sit at home and play for hours and hour. That's more true than ever here, with a game that I find myself interested in playing for that one or two hours a day while commuting, and which I can leave off and come back to pretty easily. Avoid the first one, though. The sequel is much better.… Expand

This game is one of my favourites on psp. it is a pick up and play game, to have a quick blast on and then put down. its simplicity is its strong point. i also love the customisation options. such as being able to change the colour of the character. the combat is also unique and interesting-- this game has some of the coolest characters ever!!! overall this is a fantastic game to play while travelling for short periods of time. it has lots of neat touches that add to a well rounded package of a game. ignore the very negative reviews, they forget this is a potable game its not meant to have a stupidly complex story........ its meant to entertain.- which is why this game is just right for your psp.… Expand
