Parasite Eve II
Date undefinedStraight to the point, the series started off as a chilling and entertaining RPG with an real time battle flare and ended up as a Resident Evil cloned sequel.
The series could have ended with the first Parasite Eve, but Squaresoft decided to continue the series.
What resulted was a sequel who's only tie to the original is really the main character and the use of her Parasite Energy.
Take Aya Brea, Resident Evil style gameplay, and her parasite abilities and you basically have Parasite Eve II. Its Resident Evil with special powers. That can go one of two ways--look at it as a stand alone game or survival horror game if you like, love, or are interested in the Resident Evil series; or, you can hate, loathe, dislike, or bear it as the terrible sequel that surfaced.
On the plus side, the interactive environments are a nice touch as they create a strategic approach in battles. You can find all kinds of weaponry to find the best possible way to deal with bosses. The Parasite Abilities mentioned above do add some strategy to the game as well.
Its a tough call. As stated before, you either love it as a STAND ALONE title or hate is as a SEQUEL.

Parasite Eve II
Date undefinedThis is one of those games that I look back and and wonder why the hell I never went out and bought this when I had the money. I never personally finished the first game, but starting the sequel from scratch didn't leave me confused at all.
This was one of the first RPGs I played that allowed you to move around and dodge enemy attacks. I didn't feel like I was just sitting around waiting for my action gauge to fill up anymore, I was actually doing something.
Dunno about paying $80 for a new copy, but I certainly don't mind paying $40 for it, even if it is used.
