I bought this a few weeks back, seeming as I loved The 2nd Runner so much.
It kind of sucks!
Convince to continue playing? I'm at the part where you need to disable the microwave signals.

Ehhhh, you can quit. All it was was an experiment by Kojima to make a game where you have to run away from the last boss.

It takes like an hour to beat.
It's definetly one of those games that the sequel is so much better than the original. But it's not horrible.

The final boss is a true test of skill. 8)
Other than that, you can quit it. ZOE2 is better than it in just about every way possible.

ZOE can be beaten in like 2 hours so just stick through it?
People only bought it for the MGS2 demo disc (me)

Both ZoE are exceedingly short, stick with it.
Viola death scene is awesome.

"w-was i... strong???"
me: "no, *****, i defeated you like three times and i'm only 15 years old wtf is up with that?"
i really liked the story of ZOE as a whole because it was atypical of what you'd expect from a video game. the hero is a little chicken **** who's reluctant to save his colony, slowly develops a crush on jehuty, and then gets kicked in the balls throughout the entire story accumulating up to the climax where it's revealed jehuty's mission is a suicide run... which he learns after his girlfriend is shot in the back.
i'm hard pressed to think of a character that was a punching bag throughout the entire story.
oh yeah, the virus portion of the game is awful but thankfully doesn't last too long.

I felt bad seeing her die, if you watch Idolo it goes alot into her background, and how she is the way she is.
Plus i think its safe to discuss spoilers, the game is what? 10 years old and everyones played ZOE2 in here.

No sense in me playing the game anymore, now!

I've wanted to play it again because of everything that Marcus just said. I think the story is much stronger than in ZOE2. But as a game? The Second Runner is the real deal.

I don't remember them ever explicitly saying that Celvice dies in ZOE2, so it's news to me.

Never explicitly, but during your Vic Viper battle, and then shortly before Auumaan her absence is implied.

Yeah, ZOE2 even has that video you can watch that shows alot of the stuff that happened in ZOE1.

But you said you liked ZOE, and it only takes a few hours to beat.
I assumed that meant you beat it, my apologies.

I remember reading in OPM once, when ZOE was still in the works, how it was gonna be like the Legend of Zelda of giant robot games - being able to go explore areas and all.
It turned out being way different than I imagined it would be.

I actually loved ZOE. While some people bought the game for the MGS2 demo, i bought ZOE for ZOE, and while it was short, i enjoyed the gameplay.
Its too bad that i have not finished ZOE2 yet. I know its the better game, but my collection got so big by the time it came out, it didnt keep my attention long enough i guess.
I'm thinking about doing another liquidation again, especially since i live literally a stones throw from the post office. Leave my driveway, turn right, and right again, and i am at the post office.
