Product Description

Manufacturer's Description
Can you survive the horror? One of the most terrifying survival horror games of all time, Resident Evil 2, comes to the GameCube. In chapter one, the case of the disastrous T-virus outbreak, a mutagenic toxin for use in biological weapons, was eventually closed--but the experiments were far from over. Now a new virus runs rampant. Control the destiny of Leon Kennedy and Claire Redfield as their nightmare begins when a biotech terror unleashes itself in Raccoon City. If the suspense doesn't kill you, something else will. The game features two separate adventures--play as Leon or Claire in an all out struggle for survival--and is loaded with hidden items and vital information about the Resident Evil saga; you can adjust the intensity of the game according to your skill and experience.

5.0 out of 5 stars the ultimate survival horror, 7 May 2007
By R. Fisher "entertainment lover" (west midlands uk) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
Yes the original resident evil started the horror genre but 2 took it to a whole new level the first was more puzzly, desperately searching for ammo adventure while this introduced the pulse pounding action & cool weapons.
Picking up a few months after where resi 1 left off disgraced S.T.A.R.S members have left the city in search of proof against the corporation umbrella the point mans sister Claire Redfield comes in search of him while rookie cop Leon s Kennedy arrives late for his first day upon discovering the city overrun with zombies they band together an attempt to escape the city whilst begin pursued by umbrellas hellish freaks.
Yes this is a port of the ps1 games with slightly improved graphics but its still 1 of the greatest games to ever grace a console & no amount of time will change that this is the pinnacle of the resi franchise essential even if only to revive undead memories without a doubt worth every penny you pay for it & then some.

4.0 out of 5 stars An absolute classic!, 30 Jan 2005
By A Customer
I feel that this is a very underrated game, because contrary to popular belief it is NOT a direct port of the PS original but infact the rare Dual Shock version!
The differences being:
Obviously the dual shock feature and analogue control but also...
The graphics to me look better (though only slightly).
The 4th survivor games now have a timer and new artwork on completion.
An U/L ammo cheat is available from the menu like on the original Directors Cut.
Different costumes may be available.
There is an ability to aquire an S rank.
But by far and away the best bit has to be the Extreme Battle Mode, which will be very familiar to Ressie fans and also gives the player the ability to play as Ada Wong or even Chris Redfield!

The game itself is one of the best resident evils and is one of the few with the 'jump' factor which the newer ones seem to be lacking (i.e.Rebirth & Zero). The scenery is very Assault on Precinct 13esque.
Maybe the only other version worth getting is the N64 one for the extra files and costumes.

The only criticism I can level at it is the graphics but particularly, as is mentioned by an other reviewer, leaving out the 180 degree turn is scandalous!
With this being only 20 quid or under now, I would REALLY recommend it to someone who either hasn't played it yet, or is still playing it 7 years after its launch (like me) and wants to play the battle mode.

4.0 out of 5 stars A great game, but you may not need it...., 15 May 2003
I'm a pretty big Resident Evil fan, so when I heard about the Resident Evil remake for the GameCube, I was pretty excited. Bought that, loved it and sat patiently waiting for RE2.

That's when things took a (slight) turn for the worst. RE2 is a direct port from the PlayStation original, but this isn't necessarily a bad thing. The game itself is excellent as games go, but trouble arises because you may already have this game on another console. If you do, then there's nothing new for you; only die hard fans and those wishing to complete their collection need buy it.

On the other hand, if you're new to the Resident Evil series (Hi, welcome back from Mars) or have just recently discovered it, then it will prove a worthy purchase. The game is well able to hold it's own alongside most GameCube games (it's a timeless classic) and it provides a great challenge. Because it's ported from a 32-bit console, you would be forgive for assuming the worst regarding graphics, but this game is actually graphically more impressive than some GameCube games! Soundwise, the game is pretty good; it helps crate and maintain the creepy atmosphere. The controls are chunky, just the way Resident Evil should be and the plot is engrossing and interesting.

Overall, it's well worth a look for people new to the series, but I'd be hesitant buying it if you already own another version.
