Vectorman 2

One of those awesome games that has been virtually forgotten.

User Rating: 9.4 | Vectorman 2 GEN

For me, Vectorman was one of those games that I could play over and over again without getting tired of it. It was simple and easy to figure out and had the potential to be one of the strongest game franchises on the market.

A basic side-scroller shooter with challenging enemies and a really well played physics within the game. Vectorman 2 took everything that was good about the original, realistic 2D graphics, level detail, strong game play, and some of the best sound on the Genesis, and made it bigger better and cooler. This is how game sequels should be treated.

Although I have great nostalgia for the original versions of the game, I feel that this one would have great potential if re-made using current 3D game engines. Pseudo Interactive tried to make a version of the game for the PS2, but the game was never made because they went to far away from what made the original game good.
