Summary: An Unsung Classic
Review: This game featured what I can only call the second best implementation of the Quake II engine (the best being Half Life). The graphics on this game are nothing short of spectacular, and the game play in both single and multiplayer modes is superior. It is an addicting game with plenty of heart pumping action and visual eye candy to last you for hours. For ten dollars you can not go wrong here. This gem was overlooked by the masses who were too enraptured by Quake 2 and Unreal at the time of its release. Don't be one of the ones who missed it!

Summary: wow what a game
Review: this game is really fun, i hate hearing it being compared to tombraider, this game surpasses it, its not even in the sameleague.

the game really didn't take off comercially (compared to quake2/3), and wasn't really popular for some reason, the reviews from magazines were good, like 88/100. But sales were low, and the heretic2 community was small compared to quakes'. That is probably why it is 10 bucks, but the public's loss is your gain. There are still online servers to play at, do not think this game has been abandoned tottaly.

the online battles are like a real time final fantasy 7 battle, lots of magic and cool 3D effects, plus lots of hand to hand combat with swords and staffs. a lot of fun, and the story of single player mode is good :)

my computer specs are p3 - 450 mhz, and a tnt1 card with 16mb.. the game runs pretty smooth, and is very nice to look at, be sure you have a nice setup, at least 100+ megs of ram, and a tnt or voodoo3 card.. okay peace

Summary: A Great Game For a Great Price
Review: This game is the sequel to Heretic and Hexen. It is awesome in every department; from graphics to story to sound to performance. I bought this game when it first came out (...) and I have never regretted it. Trust me (...) you can't go wrong. Check out my list for other great bargain buys.

Summary: Great Game!
Review: This is a great game! It was quite surprising actually to see the sequel to the first heretic to be such a good one. Not that the first one is bad it's just that the second one is better. This is a game where you really don't know what will happen next and you don't know what to expect and that is what makes it so great. Not only that, but the realistic locations and the different sound effects make you really apart of the game. It's also a pretty interesting plot and well thought out. I've always had fun playing this game and always will! I recommend this game to anyone that enjoys a good computer game!

Summary: Lights-Sound-Camera-Action!
Review: This is one hell of a thrill ride. First off the game uses a customized Quake II engine that looks gorgeous and plays ultra-smoothly. The 3rd person camera in Heretic 2 should be the reference point for all games that use this perspective because it is the most intuitive and easy-to-use system developed.
The player character Corvus has a host of easy to perform maneuvers that look very cool on screen. The weapons and spells are fun to use and have fantastic special FX. The levels look very good especially the Andorian episode and the K'chekrik episode and the artwork is always high quality. This game is a great buy.
The manual for those who are lucky enough to get the boxed edition is also nifty though not too detailed.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Excellent game
Review: using the Quake 2 engine this game has plenty of action and exploring to be done. It also has a tutorial to get you adjusted to the cusomized controls. and don't forget to download the update from the activision web site.
