    Although the encounter rate is rather high, it has extremely tight combat which more than makes up for the encounter rate. The story is wonderful, the cast is great, and the actors do an extremely well job of delivering their lines. The Mantra Grid makes for great customization, allowing you to, literally, learn every ability in the game (aside from special story related abilities).

    An Amazing game. The Shin Megami Tensei franchises always fascinate me but this one truly stands out as gaming glory.

    So much better than the first one, yet they're extremely similar. Some of the best story and strategy you'll ever find in a videogame.

    This is a must-have sequel in a must-have series. [Nov 2005, p.80]

    Digital Devil Saga 2 brings the strange story started by the first game to a spectacular, dramatic, and bizarrely calm end.

    This is an RPG anyone can get behind, with depths to plumb that I simply don't have space to mention. Give it a shot. [Nov 2005, p.143]
