Jagged Alliance 2: Review And Strategy Tips

by AytchMan , May 05 '01
Pros: Best Successor To XCOM So Far, Cheap
Cons: Some Odd Design Elements
XCOM. The name still reverberates through the cluttered corridors of computer gamedom. With the industry's slavish devotion to clones and sequels, it bumfuzzles your easily-confused reviewer that no one has yet produced a credible successor....

Slap in that last clip and throw on your kevlar!

by boden11 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Jun 13 '00
Pros: Tons of gameplay, good graphics, epic game
Cons: Needs a good computer to run
When I think of some epic computer games, a few titles come to mind, of course there's the King's Quest, and Space Quest series (and the other Sierra series), Warcraft, Dune ][, Doom, 7th Guest, and Jagged Alliance 2. Jagged Alliance is a computer game...

Better than a Giant, Walking Haggis...

by Xiag , Jan 28 '01
Pros: Lots of interaction with the world, great dialog, and well paced action.
Cons: Some programming quirks and crashes. Very well done 2d graphics are still 2d graphics.
Join AIM. Visit far off interesting places, meet power-crazed dictators, and fill them with lead. A simplistic plot that still seems mildly refreshing from another alien/mutant invasion. Open ended in your struggle for democracy and the 'good fight'...

The game where Rednecks and Cheerleaders come together and Kill bad guys

by freakin-cupid , Jul 12 '01
Pros: Nice Graphics, unique gameplay, smart AI, lots of fun.
Cons: Can be repetative in some places, no scenarios.
Okay, so there arent actually any cheerleaders, but there are rednecks. And you do get to kill bad guys. Lots of bad guys. Killing a bad guy in this has got great satisfaction too, as appose to the millions in which you kill in one game of Quake, or...

Fun, challenging, and non-linear.

by ironclaw22 , Nov 04 '99
Pros: Great attention to detail, many RPG elements, non-linear gameplay.
Cons: Line of sight problems, average graphics.
This game has just about everything I like about computer games. It is very intuative (I had to open the manual to figure out how to do 2 things), it is very challenging (I still haven't beaten this game in any of the harder settings), it is non-linear...

The Best Made Better

by Walkere , Jun 14 '00
Pros: Great replayability, wide range of weapons
Cons: Implausible story, some parts are impossibly difficult
A few years ago, I read a preview for Jagged Alliances 2, and thought it looked pretty interesting. I was already hooked on the original Jagged Alliances and had played a friend's copy of Jagged Alliances: Deadly Games, so naturally I was inclined to...

An RPG with Bombs, Knives, and MP5's

by Area51 , Dec 22 '99
Pros: Great Realism, Diverse selection of mercs, and great weapons
Cons: It can be too realistic
Jagged Alliance 2 sets a whole new standard for RPG's. It is very realistic in terms of human behavior. Actions points, which determine how much a character can do in a turn, are dependent on the character's health, energy, morale, and agility. The...

Enjoyable memory hog

by godking , Dec 14 '99
Pros: Fun tactical game on all levels
Cons: Major memory issues for a game that shouldn't have them
Jagged Alliance 2 is not particularly revolutionary. It's a simple, turn-based combat game - it does nothing new that X-Com didn't do six years ago.

That having been said, Jagged Alliance 2 is a crazy amount of fun. The...

Makes you feel like your in a movie.

by mlwhitt , Mar 28 '00
Pros: Unique Interface, Long game play.
Cons: Addictive, No Multiplayer support.
Jagged Alliance 2 is one of the most addictive games that I have played in a long time. The only major flaw in the game is that it lacks multiplayer support. Beyond those lines, Jagged Alliance 2 is the perfect game for wargame/strategy...

Turn-Base Strategy At It's Best

by darksoul , Mar 11 '00
Pros: Lots of variety, just an all-around great turn-base
Cons: Highly addictive, time consuming...
I bought this game not only because I loved the original Jagged Alliance, but also I'm a huge fan of turn-based strategies. Absolutely love the X-Com series, which is somewhat similar.

This game is TBS at it's best. Huge array of...

If it moves, shoot it!

by AndrewHowe , Jul 29 '00
Pros: Immersive, action-packed.
Cons: Dated graphics.
Despite the inexplicable absence of pre- and post-release advertising and hype, the original Jagged Alliance attained cult status amongst turn-based strategy junkies on the strength of its in-your-face attitude and balanced gameplay. After a series of...
