Playstation 2 : Summoner 2 Details

Summoner 2 keeps all that was good in its predecessor and far surpasses it. On a purely technical level, the load times between scenes are faster, camera angles are consistently more flexible in the 3-D environment, and the battle reactions are cleaner and more responsive. But it's the story that's really blossomed. The swashbuckling goddess-queen Maia is more likable than dour Joseph from the first Summoner. (Her various outfits and weapons sure are cooler, at least.) There's more humor in the story, and it manages to strike its serious notes without sounding ridiculously overdramatic. The voice actors sound like they're really enjoying their roles too, and it was fun (for a change) to listen to the spoken sections. The storyline moves you along smoothly, and the bosses, while tricky, never seem insurmountable. Rather than just some big fight at the end, the goal of Summoner 2 seems to be to help Maia seek her destiny while being the most adored and accomplished--plus best outfitted--queen-goddess-swordsperson she can be. --Garland Withers
