Power Stone 2

• 4-PLAYER FIGHTING MAYHEM!.

Product Description ------------------- There are plenty of 3-D fighting games out on the market, but no others quite as crazy as this. Power Stone 2 chucks the precision attack combos of the Street Fighter-type games in favor of a free-for-all melee that allows characters to walk in and out of the battle and use found objects as weapons. You'll encounter more than 120 items that can serve as weapons, vehicles, traps, and more. Find three Power Stones (or beat them out of an nent) to temporarily turn into a more strapping, punishing version of yourself and knock inches off your nents' life meters. .com ---- Players who have had the pleasure of playing the original Power Stone know that it was pure fighting chaos. One or two players would run around trying to collect three power stones, which would turn them into superhuman punishment machines, while everything from tables to submachine s were available as weapons. It was fast paced and a whole lot of fun. Now, picture all of the aforementioned stuff, but with up to four players battling at once, and you've just described Power Stone 2 for Dreamcast. Sure, there's still a one-player mode, but it's Power Stone 2's multiplayer mode that truly makes it worth the price of admission. The levels are larger this time around, to accommodate the wilder action, and there are Mario Party-style minigames that pop up smack in the middle of battles. Graphics are as beautiful as the Dreamcast can do, and the characters are cute and colorful. A couple of hidden characters add to the game's replay value. --Robb Guido Pros: * Fast and furious fighting action * Bigger stages, where nearly every object can be used as a weapon * Added minigames Cons:* One-player mode not nearly as fun * Frantic action leaves little space for strategy
