I bought the first Black and White game when I was a good deal younger and I don't really remember it, but I do know that I enjoyed B&W2 a great deal more. Although, as GameSpot says, the game is fairly linear, there is a lot to see and do in this game. The ability to be good or evil is very fun and I always get a kick out of hurling my innocent civilians off the peaks of mountains. The miracles and epic miracles are great fun and look great. As with the other Black and White game, your conscience is present and they provide a few good laughs. The creature is very interactive and can do almost anything. A great part of this game is the armies. You can create huge armies with thousands of soldiers, albeit this will take a long time, but it is great fun to send your army into battle. Unfortunately, once you beat this game, the only replay value is due to playing as good or evil again. Once you tried good and evil, the game becomes a little dull. Overall though, Black and White 2 is a really fun, beautiful, and funny game that shouldn't be missed.
