Summary: A Tower of Fun
Review: Beautfiul Quake 3 engine graphics. Intricate story played out through oodles of cut scenes and scripted events. Clever level design and secret areas (chalk one up to LEVELORD). A unique arsenal of moves that lets you scale walls, Tarzan-swing from rope to rope, follow narrow ledges by hugging walls, climb along overhead pipes, perform swordplay combos, etc.Most of all the game is a BLAST to play! Any game that manages to be this much fun is #1 on my list. The downside: You're going to need quite the beefy machine to benefit from all the eye candy, there's no multi-player, and the single player game is a little short. This isn't enough to detract from a 5-star rating, though. FAKK2 rocks!

Summary: F.A.K.K. 2 is too good to miss
Review: F.A.K.K. 2 has a wonderful world to view, the movement of the characters is also amazing. Overall F.A.K.K. 2 is just fun to play, throw away your Tomb Raider games and get this one! The music is also a good feature to, if you know nothing of the Heavy Metal series this game will show it all to you in one big explosive bloody mess, it is the most fun you will ever get in a video game. Get F.A.K.K. 2 as a gamer it is your duty to own this game.

Summary: Go [...] Yourself
Review: Heavy Metal: FAKK 2 is a fantastic half of a game. I can only imagine what the experience might have been like had the developers taken it upon themselves to finish the rest of it. After all, you could make your way through FAKK 2 in a single sitting if you were patient enough. Add to this a slow beginning which has you running from place to place, chatting with boring NPCs, and fighting nothing but buzzing flies, and you might expect that the game isn't worth your time. However, you would be incorrect about that, because, after all, FAKK 2 won't take very much of your time, and that which it does consume will have you gleefully slaying all kinds of bizarre monsters in the name of justice... or whatever. (When you're playing a female warrior with a leather thong and slew of blood-letting weapons, you can guess that the story is a bit on the expendable side.) Combat is ferocious, gory, and addictive. In 2000, it was novel for a character to use two weapons at once (a sword in one hand and an uzi in the other, for example), and though many games have borrowed this concept since Heavy Metal's release, few do it so well. Once the action begins, it won't let loose of you until the end - which, again, comes far too soon. If FAKK 2 still wore a [...] pricetag, its brevity would make it hard to recommend. Now, at a budget price, however, it cries out to be played. The graphics may be aging, but they're still pretty, and the gameplay rocks. If you missed this one, do yourself a solid and grab a copy. It won't keep you busy for too long, but you'll have an enjoyable ride while it lasts.

Summary: A very overlooked game
Review: I downloaded a demo off the internet and all I can say is wow. What fun. I have always been a fan of the Heavy Metal comic book. Incredible graphics too. The game is set in a futuristic world with guns, shields and swords! Non stop action, awesome fight sequences and just plain fun! I had been playing EverQuest for a while and I forgot video games can be fun. It runs like Tomb Raider but much, much more fun. I am gonna order it right now! I can't believe there wasn't any hype over this game because of all the recent games that have come out, this the one that should have gotten the hype. Oh, it is also much easier to move and controll than Tomb Raider.

Summary: Would be more fun with less bugs.
Review: I enjoyed the game I far as I got, but I was unable to finish as every time I got past one section of the last chapter the game would crash. It was the most fustrating end to a game I have ever experienced.

Summary: Fantastic scenery but,....
Review: I may have been one of those unfortunate gamers that experienced the unsolvable problems with this game, but you should know even after downloading the patch, I had freeze-ups and screw-ups like I have never seen before. "Julie" got stuck several times and would not move as expected when climbing and running etc. At one point in the game she started running by herself and jumped off a cliff several times before I was able to get her to stop doing it. The graphics are so good, it was worth the frustration just to see them. This is truly "eye candy". I wish the game play was better. The levels are uneven, meaning some drag on forever and actually start to wear you out. The ending sets you up for a sequel. God, I hope they fix the horrible problems with this game or I will not bother getting the next one. I'll wait and see.

Summary: Great Game With Lots Of Fun In It.
Review: I never cared for Heavy Metal before I knew about this game. You don't need to be a fan to enjoy this game. It is a 3rd person action/adventure with lots of fun, carnage, great plot, and amazing graphics. I definitely recommend this game. I got it today and I'm hooked! -Carlos Jr. aka JC Denton 8-19-00.

Summary: Heavy Metal F.A.K.K.2
Review: I purchased this game in a package. It came with four other games in a set for ten dollars. When I saw that it was in there, I thought, oh, a game with a hot chick, thats a good change. I gladly purchased it and tried it out. To my surprise, the game sucked. At least it wasn't what I was used to playing. I like FPS's and the controls in this rpg/fps didn't cut it. Of course this game is fairly old, thats why it cam in this pack for ten bucks. If you have a computer that isn't up to date, sure I would recommend getting it, but otherwise, don't waste your time. This was just failed attempt to create a game with some extra skin involved. Good idea, needs some work.

Summary: Bugs, bugs, and more bugs
Review: Nice graphics if you can get past all the bugs. The first time I sat down to play, everything went well. The second, third, etc., I had multiple problems. It would freeze up and nothing but a ctrl-alt-del would free me up. My PC by far surpasses the system requirements so I knew that wasn't the problem. Once down in the sewers, the characters turned completely black. Nothing but outlines. All the other graphics were fine. Tech support? Forget about it. My 8 year old daughter could have been more helpful. All they could tell me to do was just basic stuff anyone with some computer experience would have already tried. Sorry. Can't recommend it. I'd return it if I could. I love gaming, but this one I've thrown in the drawer. Pass on this puppy.
