Talk:Fullmetal Alchemist 2: Curse of the Crimson Elixir

message: as well as a rumored 2 player Co-op story mode.
According to GameSpot, FMA3 introduces this. However, I don't know for sure that FMA2 does NOT have this, so I'll hold off removing this until the game comes out and I buy it.
 To help boost sales, Square Enix has decided to release the game with a DVD containing the first 2 episodes of Season 2 of the anime.
That's the first I've heard of this. I'd still buy the game either way, but I'd be delighted if this were the case. --Andy Janata 4 July 2005 16:54 (UTC)
:OK, having just bought my copy, I can confirm the inclusion of a DVD with ep. 26 and 27. This disk ONLY contains dub audio and no subtitles... Crappy anime DVD if you ask me. Anyway, co-op is NOT present. I'll update the article accordingly. --Andy Janata 19:32, 13 July 2005 (UTC)

message: I just got done with it and am disappointed at how short it is. It only took me 10 hours, 9 minutes, a good 3 hours (at LEAST) of which was just dialog... Probably more like 4 hours. --Andy Janata 02:42, 15 July 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree with you, it's mostly dialog. My bro bought it the day it came out. Once I get my scanner back, I will try to scan a few things for yall. Zscout370 (Sound Off) 05:18, 16 July 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I've been meaning to scan the box, but I haven't been in Windows for a few days and I don't have my scanner set up in Linux... I can't reboot right now (compiling a whole bunch of stuff) but I should be able to do so no later than tomorrow, so if you can't get it done by then I guess I will. Also, I want to flesh out the article... Perhaps we could do that together? --Andy Janata 20:05, 16 July 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Certainly. My brother was given the option to replay the game. He did so and this what happened: he was able to keep his items and bonus points. However, he could not carry over any transmutated abilities or his levels he earned in the game. He was also able to pick up bonus items, which I have not seen what they are. Though, there is a side quest to pick up 64 photos throughout the game. Zscout370 (Sound Off) 20:09, 16 July 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, I have the first game and that's what happened in it -- you carried your items over, but not levels. The bonus items ARE the photos. I did notice you keep your "learned alchemy" (the L1 button weapons menu). Makes quick work of the early enemies to dice them with your sword. :) Also, I was able to make level 2 items (bombs --> dynamite, steel balls --> spiked balls). What's nice is that this one tells you where to find the bonus items; Fullmetal Alchemist and the Broken Angel did not. --Andy Janata 22:56, 16 July 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: My brother sold the game, got about 20 USD for it. Zscout370 (Sound Off) 04:11, 20 July 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I doubt I'm going to sell it; I still have the first one here. It's OK to replay after a couple months. Anyway, I'm playing it through again without listening to/reading any dialog. After about 3 hours, I'm roughly halfway through I think. Oh, and I've had too much other stuff going on to really put effort into the page, I hope that'll change soon. --Andy Janata 14:03, 20 July 2005 (UTC)

text: BTW, my bro just beat the game: 7 Game hours approx. Zscout370 (Sound Off) 05:40, 16 July 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  Anyone play the game? 

message: "Taking place after the events of the first two episodes of the anime (though it seems to take
 place in the manga due to how the events take place)"
Is there a word or two missing? It doesn't seem to make sense to me.  --ScarletSpiderDave 05:13, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I've changed this paragraph entirely. Its not just based around the first two episodes, but the first few episodes of the series (Scar and Bald make an appearance, Shou Tucker mysteriously dies [a la the manga], etc.). Drumpler 18:00, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
