Game Description

Follow-up to the first PS2 Fullmetal Alchemist game --- 2003's Tobenai Tenshi (Broken Angel). Hagane no Renkinjutsushi 2 continues on the action-RPG roots of the previous title but improves over the predecessor with new features and gameplay elements. The story once again focuses on main character Edward Elric. This time around, Square Enix is starting the story off from the first chapter of the original Fullmetal Alchemist cartoon, but plenty of original scenarios are planned as well. Animated sequences feature heavily in the game, playing during major story sequences. Teamwork with Al once again takes a central role in this title. As with the original, you direct Al using the R1 shoulder button. However, this time around, Al automatically chooses the most appropriate action for you depending on the situation.

Features

• Ed's bare-handed combat is much improved. With his impressively quick punch combos, foot sweeps, slide kicks and high kicks, ed can deliver a wide variety of strikes without the use of single weapon.
• ed's agility allows for a variety of defensive moves, from blocking to executing dodge moves such as rolling and cartwheeling and back flips to counterattacks. Counterattacks are a new feature in this installment. When an enemy attacks, if well-timed, ed can unleash a powerful counterattack which ca deal a great amount of damage.
• al fights on his own, but you can also give him specific orders. When you have to fight against multiple enemies, cooperating with ai enables you to fight with extra efficiency. Command ai to tackle enemies, alleyoop you to higher areas and man weapons. When the rage gauge is full, ai can launch you into the air to unleash a powerful rage attack.
