Wild Arms 2 for PlayStation 1

Pros: read review
Cons: see above

One thing I'll never understand is the fascination with Wild ARMs, Contrail's mediocre PSX RPG released in early 97. While it wasn't terrible, there was just nothing special about the game besides the intro and the western-themed music. Well Contrail...

Pros: Classic style RPG, cool weapons & magic system
Cons: The battles are to easy, puzzles are annoying, no escape from dungeons item

About 2 months ago I was in FYE looking at the games. I happened to find Wild Arms 2. Since this was an RPG, I pretty much HAD to get it. Didn't know if I would like it, but it was only $10. After finally beating Crono Cross (and not getting an ending) a...

Pros: Decent concepts, easy to learn
Cons: No flow in language whatsoever

To begin, this is a write-off masterminded by Orestes84. He has a complete list of the participants. Visit him, and then read everyone else talk about why Epinions needs to get its act together.

So, you might say, I'm in this write-off...

Pros: good gaming system, nicely rendered battles
Cons: weak story, not as good as its predecessor

The original Wild Arms was a classic, a very enjoyable game with all the traditional elements of a role-playing game and some of the best anime full-motion video available in its time. That automatically gave the sequel a tough position to fill,...

Pros: Nice story line, long (37+ hours)
Cons: Chunky graphics

Note: This review is old. Very old. I can't be held responsible for the length or redundancy of this review. Oh wait, yes I can. Darn.

You know, I was really wondering when Contrail was going to release a sequel to it’s very...

Pros: Lots of Playing Time....
Cons: ............................................

My husband purchased this game when it first came out. He is a hard core Role Playing Game fan. He played the first Wild Arms and Liked it so much he purchased the second one when it came out in early May. He also Purchased the strategy guide to go...

Pros: Very easy interface to learn, interesting plot, good puzzles, extra boss monsters if you're in the mood
Cons: Some puzzles are pretty tough, graphics are same old blocky people

Yep, he sure is. For one thing, he keeps reminding me that HE was the one who got the Playstation for Christmas! LOL Oh, he is FURIOUS, because he gets to sit by for hours while Mom hogs the box, playing Wild Arms, again!!

Yep, I got the...

Pros: Everything
Cons: Nothing

I rissked trading 3 games to buy 1 game by the name of ''Wild Arms 2'' I admit I felt stupid doing this since I was not too sure I would like Wild Arms 2. Wild Arms is great and all but I did not care for the story. I was worrying about the story for...

Pros: Fresh new characters and story, unique combat/magic system, many hard puzzles,
Cons: not a true sequel, graphics and music aren't really too impressing

This game is every bit as good as the original plus it has more of a true RPG feel to it where as the first game was mainly puzzle based. There are now more playable characters, more side quests and unexpected events plot turns. The game spans two discs,...

Pros: simple battle system, lots of secrets, fun story
Cons: graphics unimpressive, sometimes poor translation

Wild Arms absolutely captivated me. Great characters, an involving plot, a simple/effective battle system, and cool special effects. The original combined a field system similar to the first Zelda (complete with bombs) and a standard battle system....

Pros: Great Puzzles. Good Story.
Cons: Easy Battles.

Wild Arms 2 is a wonderfully enjoyable game, it's creativity, challenge, and style are fantastic examples of the RPG genre. As with any other RPG the game can be rated with the simple system of the three P's Puzzles, Powers, and Plot. First on the list...

Pros: more characters, good storlyine, battles are fun, many secrets
Cons: a little difficult at times

Wild Arms 2 is much improved over Wild Arms, which is a big accomplishment. This one, unlike Wild Arms, received a huge amount of hype, and was expected to be a big success. In my opinion, it is, and is an even more enjoyable adventure than some of the...

Pros: Great story line, good graphics and camera angles you choose
Cons: music is almost always the same.

At the time the game was released Gamepro Magazine had posted a review on Wild Arms 2. In the beginning I wasn't to excited, but I decided to buy it. Low and behold it has become one of my favorite games. Featuring a vast chose of camera angles YOU...

Pros: You can attack specific parts of the enemy
Cons: Boring battle system and very plain game.

Wild Arms series was a blow out rpg when it first hit the shores of the U.S. It's unique game play and intriguing story line made the game one of those top of the line rpgs. But what happened here in Wild Arms 2? Was it better of worst than the...

Pros: You can avoid a lot of random battles
Cons: No Analog Control

The sequel to the first 3-D RPG on the PSX has nothing original to it. It uses the "force" system found in many RPGs, as well as a turn-based battle system. The story revolves around the three main characters, Ashley (he's male mind you), Brad,...
