CGM Reviews: Zone of the Enders HD

While Zone of the Enders is not high on the list of all time PS2 classics, the fast paced, mecha combat game helmed by Hideo Kojima has a devoted following. It reviewed well, and provided a unique experience comparable to something like Bayonetta or its contemporary Devil May Cry, but with giant robots. Of course, being a Hideo Kojima project, it’s also rife with exposition, obvious Japanese to English translations (whenever someone repeats a sentence that was just spoken, you know the game is Japanese) and an unapologetically baroque plot. Now the original games are the latest addition to the HD Port family, and… they’re slower than the original. 60/100
