Ikari Warriors
2
Ikari Warriors 2 is like Super Mario
Bros.2 and Zelda II-it is different from the first game in the series.Instead of a jungle,you're on another
planet fighting evil aliens.You only have one
life,an energy bar,and a gun.There's also a
subscreen when you hit select that dispays items
and weapons.Also there's shops where you can stop and buy weapons,or fight for hearts,which are
used to buy things.Also warp tiles come out of
nowhere,and suck you in,making you fight
bosses,or play some stupid target practice
game,which is impossible to hit anything.When you lose,you lose all your hearts.
Play control is average,you can shoot in 8
directions.But walking is pretty slow.
Don't get me started on how difficult this game
is.You have to be a game master to not use the
ABBA code.Tons of enemies fly and shoot things at you.It's almost impossible to not get
hit.
Graphics? They flicker a lot so sometimes you
can't tell what's coming at you.Also the enemies
are usally the same colors:red,green,yellow,and
gray.
Sound effects and music are average.A few
voices,saying something that sounds like "Come on,let's fight!" when you
start the game or "YAHHH!!" when you die.(which
you will plenty of times.)
In conclusion,buy this game if you want.It's not
exactly the worst,but very far from the being the best.
