Got it for my son as a Christmas gift. Don't know much about computer gaming myself... My boys, twins, like these sorts of games and the characters in this particular one, "Fullmetal Alchemist 2," seem to be the flavor of the day. Although it has not been played to date as it's wrapped up in Christmas package wrap, I'm sure it will be met with excitement and anticipation to play. The one boy even went Halloweening as the primary character of this video game series, this year. So, I cannot tell you whether I like it or dislike it since I personally do not have the time nor inclination to get into video gaming. I bought it because one twin wanted to gift if for the holidays to the other.
This follow up to the first Fullmetal Alchemist is pretty good. mechanics improved quite a bit with the combo's, the new feature of semi-controling his brother is a great addition and the cut scenes are great. Spaces for improvement though; combos COULD be a little more flexible, could also have the bonus feature of letting you choose/switch between characters or an alternative story line/point of view, and the game could have extended a little longer. Hardcore gamers, take it easy when becoming "dedicated" to trying to beat the game, it's a little more short-winded than you may first perceive lol But overall, game was excellent, hoping for a better followup as well
If you're a fan of the FMA anime, this game is the perfect follow up to Broken Angel. Most aspects of game play are greatly improved. Ed's moves are slicker, his open handed fighting is a lot cooler, and more in character, since he doesn't just automatically have his automail transmuted all the time. Al's AI is much improved too. He seems to have learned how to run around things that are in his way for the most part. Another nice addition is the voice acting in the spoken parts of the story, not just in the FMVs (which are also somewhat improved in this game btw.) I give the game a 4 out of 5 only because it's really largely a fan service game. I loved it. I'm a fan... I think if I had come into it cold with no knowledge of the series, I might have found it a bit confusing at first since it's not as clear as it could be what's going on in Ed and Al's life right at that time. Like Broken Angel, the storyline is an insertion point, implying that it's some little side venture that Ed and Al went on that wasn't shown in the animé, but which could very well have happened between a couple of things that did happen. This story does follow the beginning of the series for a short while, so it's easier to see what's going on... you start with about the same amount of knowledge you have starting animé and go on from there. If you are already a series fan, then I think the game could be a 5 out of five for you.Read full review
I received the game fast and it was well worth the money. Plain and simple excellent service. The game is like a simpler and shorter Kingdom Hearts (a 10/10 game)except instead of Donald and Goofy as your teammates you have a huge empty metal suit of armor that kicks ass! To top that off you can turn transmute objects in to sweet apparatus' that help you fight enemys. You can even pull a few weapons out of the ground to use anytime. Even though the game is incredibly short, you can still replay it with everything you unlocked in the previous playthough. I'd say 8/10 for the game.
The game is good for gamers who are tolerant about the game's flaws. It has really anoying loading times between areas, but the graphics are well developed. The gameplay is also excellent in comparison to the anime series. For any fan of FMA it is perfect, but if you're not a fan, the games story wont catch you in the beginning, only after a couple of hours will you be drawn in to play it. Other than that, the game is pretty good.
The game has a good flow, excellent game play options and diversity. Easy to play right out of the case, very well designed tutorials and the cel shading graphics are great, quite a surprise. If you love Fullmetal Alchemist this game is a must have. Much better than the first installment, sticks to the manga story lie well.
This is an excellent game and I beat it in one week. It's a lot of fun and the graphics are really good. This is one of my most favorite Anime shows with a great story and plenty of action. I bought this game because I had the demo of it for a long time and I couldn't find the game in any Game Stop stores so I decided to find one on ebay. This compares to the first game which I have with similar game play, but not as good graphics as this one.
Sry. Got the review and feedback mixed up. But the game IS great. If you enjoyed the first game you're sure to love this game. There are lots of new things that Edward can do in this game like being able to transmute weapons from the ground instead of having to find something to transmute into a weapon. Edward moves a lot more while fiting and levels up easier than the previous game. Its a great game and I highly recommend it!
its a great flowing game lots of detail and all your fav full metal alchemist charecters to play along with its a realy fun exciting game for fans and non fans alike good combat nice pictures all in all a great game
