BETTER THAN DARK CLOUD.

The graphics went a bit naff in this installment, but the upgrade and weapons are better and steve is ace (the ridepod).

the sound is better, you can use guns and a melee weapons simultaniously AND upgrade them easier, even repair poweder can be used to power up a weapon!!

the dungeons and bosses have way way way more variety and difficulty this time, especially the way you beat em.

georama mode is way different b'cos you have to build the things, you can move people from your town into other towns and change the future, and you dont have to power up likke 6 different chararcters cos theres only 2 (and the ridepod).

the ridepod can be upgraded to talk, much like steve the slingashot in DC1.
i only got this game on 19th february 07 for my b-day and at time of writing thats nearly a week ago, and im already hooked!!!
