Zone of the Enders is a video game that was developed and published by Konami in 2001 for the PlayStation 2. It was produced by, and is closely associated with, Hideo Kojima.
The game was originally sold packaged with a preview demo of the then-upcoming Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty. A sequel, Zone of the Enders: The 2nd Runner, was released in 2003, also for PlayStation 2. Both games will be released for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in 2012 as part of the Zone of the Enders HD Collection.
Hideo Kojima is widely known as a video games auteur, but what are his best games outside the Metal Gear franchise?
More than a decade since release, Zone of the Enders: HD Collection remains your best opportunity to enjoy the games on modern consoles.
I loved 2nd Runner back in the day on the PS2.I tiried playing it again years later on the PS4 and I just couldn't get into it. I don't know what happened. The game just felt janky to me.
I have the ps4 edition of 2nd runner(Mars) and it runs great. But i guess if you want to play the original you need the collection.
The war and taking down the fleet sections are highlights that i still remember to this day. Maybe Armoured Core VI will have some dope sections like that.
Runs surprisingly well on the Steam Deck. Doesn't feel too old or constricted on the small screen.
Absolutely loved these games. Bought the first ZoE because of the MGS2 demo, and ended up loving the game that came with the demo! Haha but ZoE 2 has a special place in my heart. The mix of 3D and anime style cell shading at the time on Ps2 was NEXT LEVEL. I beat it in one sitting on a Sunday afternoon and will always remember that game. Hard as sh** but improved on the first in every way and had some very cool easter eggs.
The September Games with Gold lineup is here! On Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S, battle the Chaos Gods and their horde of bestiaries in Warhammer: Chaosbane, and embark on an epic quest in Mulaka.
Mulaka looks interesting. Never played a ZoE game and SS2 is prob my favorite of the SS games.
Chaosbane is a great get, IMHO. Definitely one of those "not a must-buy but definitely want to try" games. It's got the usual Warhammer game baseline of rerunning missions and whatnot, but a different style of diablo-esque than normal that was enjoyable.
I have owned Zone of the Enders collection. I encourage you to try it. It’s corny in a good way and not very long games.
I own ZOE physical nice to have the digital to downloaded to launch when I want to play it. The same with Samurai Showdown.
Looking forward to trying out ChaosBane
Good month for GWG
