The sequel is full of puzzles and has a much stranger sense of humor. Rated for ages 17 and older. Such is the case with Virtua Striker 2, a soccer title with many nice qualities that are ultimately overshadowed by the game's lack of control. These factors make Virtua Striker 2 more for casual soccer enthusiasts looking for a sports game that is easy to pick up. The game delivers solid graphics.
Characters are large and detailed, and the frame rate is smooth and constant.
There is nothing groundbreaking, but the nature of the game does not call for anything spectacular. Everything goes awry in the control section. It's difficult to guide characters around the field. At times, gamers may even wonder if they have any control at all. Analog control is not available, either, and players must use the standard, but outdated, digital directional pad.
