I uzsed to cheat in VC and 3 because I thought it was too hard. Then my file got corrupted, so I learned my lesson for GTA SA. I worked so hard to beat the game, and I did. But first, I did the ambulance, firetruck, and policing missions in order to get 300% total (150 health + 150 armor) and to become fireproof. The last mission was then a breeze. I didnt cheat at all, and although you may find the trucking missions hard, I KNOW A GREAT WAY TO FINISH THEM EASILY, IN ATLEAST 20 MINUTES!! So if anyones interested in getting fireproof, or 300% health, just message me here on Gamespot.

Anyways, dont cheat, or you'll get screwed.

Who doesnt love something they can command, that ALSO has a vibration feature? You know what I mean? Eh?eh? Seriously though, I dont feel love for hardware, but rather a sense of pride- I bought it with my own money.

Pride is the word for My PS2

Aboondon, if your trying to say that Pro athletes dont contribute to society on a labour, logical sense, I agree with you. Construction workers deserve more than these guys because they WORK. But also, you have to realize that athletes that are pro have made a commitment, they had to have desire, heart, and endurance. Anyone who can do this deserves to get paid well, and lets face it, your making it sound as if its easy for someone to become a pro athlete and live the good life. Also, your implying that playing sports is more fun that work. In fact, its work that is fun AND hard. An athlete can play his sport, but its hard to win, its hard to go on road games, its hard to train and stay fit.

On the otherrrr hand, I agree with you on the fact that if pro athletes make millions, other workers like construction workers deserve a lot more because they have a more logical contribution. (Im making an assumption that that's what you believe, so tell me if I am wrong.)

When I read evil I thought of onyl ONE game: TWISTED METAL BLACK

Alll these guys are EVIL freaks, but Sweet Tooth tops them all, and you have to love the canibal of canibals, Mr. Grim! Kratos or Wesker have NOTHING on the freaks of Twisted Metal Black.

There you have it. I thought I would be the only one defending DC2, but others feel the same way. As for weapon breaking, I think its very unique. What other game has you paying attention to the little things that can make a big difference? There are many enemies (monsters) and I didn't find them all that bland as one person put it (if I remember correctly). Also, someone above said to bear with the first level of the game. I AGREE. I'll tell you why I don't have a problem with this though:

It ties perfectly with the (amazing) storyline. I believe that the first level was supposed to be slow because it introduces a Strong storyline. At first, your confused because Max (protagonist) is writing to his mother. Its not until a little later you understand that *SPOILER* his mother is missing, and then later *SPOILER* you find out shes from the future. As the cool kids would say, "trippy". And then after that, the storyline just intensifies. I for one LOVED the town building. First, it was a little hard, and I was confused with the whole system. But after getting a guide for the first level (Sindain) I was able to understand what to do from there. The present affected the future (from Max's point of view) and that really tells you how unique the game is in terms of story.

Its often called the Zelda Killer, and I really wish there was a part 3 and 4. Maybe some day, but the bottom line is this:

For $7.00, you cant go wrong for a game thats worth so much more.

Lastly,although the comment above me says that the graphics are ok, I feel that they are much more. Yes, its a 2002 or 2003 game, but its artistically soulful. I'm a guy who plays Halo, GTA, NFL, NHL, Wrestling, Ratchet and Clank and so on. If I can be moved by an RPG, Asian Magnet, videogame like Dark Cloud 2, you simply cant deny that this game is something else.

...Thats my opinion, and although I may sound too serious, and/or too emotional over a videogame, Iwrote like thatbecause you wanted me to convince you, and I hope I did.

Alright you Punk...(Level 11 Atomic Punk to be exact) I'll tell you why.

First, your right, Darck Cloud One was not great (I've played it at a friends house once or twice). But I was still able to realize that it needed more.

But let me tell you something, DC2 is breathtaking. Firstly, I am NOT a fan of RPG's. Dark Cloud 2 is the exception. The music is so heartwarming, and I mean that most literally as possible. I mean, the music is so peaceful, and so soulful, you'll be hypnotized. I dont look too much into music, but when its something to point out, I will, and its no exception in DC 2. Secondly, (more importantly) the gameplay is fabulous. You may find it tedious to go through levels of randomized maps to look for keys to go to the next level, but its fully motivated. Everytime I enter, Im expecting a great boss battle or a further look into the story that starts of myserious. The game starts off slow actually, but about 30% of the way you begin to understand the storyline. The Graphics are like the music, breathtaking in a special way. This isnt your Tekken theme grapihcs, or your Halo styled graphics, but rather, its a "get away from reality" sort of feel. Looking at a sunset never felt more real. I know it sounds incredibly stupid, but trust me, its one of those games where you feel like your apart of.

So, honestly, I would force you to get it, but you have your own free will. The last time I checked, this game was $7.00 and granted that you can find it, I guarantee that it will not be a waste of money, as it is a great improvement over DC1.

Sports in real life are all pretty stupid and a joke. Players get paid LOTS of money to play a freaking game. Thats like someone paying me 24 million dollars to play Ratchet and clank professional for 3 years lol. Stupid. Not only that but players dope, cheat on their wives, and waste thier money on crap. And all the jocks who couldnt make it to the pro's sit there and idolize them..................

I play sports games occasionally. I let making the AI as retarded as possable first. Like in madden i usually score 100+ pts a game with 7 minute qaurters lol. I love hockey and usually score 20-35 goals a game w/ 10 minute periods. I play the fantasy ****basketball games like NBA street and nba baller. They are nice filler games that can quickly devour hours of your life. I dont have alot of friends to compete against though and usually suck at sports game against other people which really pisses me off since i can crush them in just about any other type of game.
