Not even the original Pikmin can stand up to this game.

User Rating: 9.5 | Pikmin 2 GC
This is the best strategy game to date in my book. Stunning graphics, never ending game-play, cool sound effects, and little tunes that are fun to listen to take the stage here, and make this game stand apart from its competitors!

To start off with, the graphics were royal for the GameCube, beating some Wii games with their amazing smoothness and HD charm. The enemies came to life here, looking twice as good as in the first game, and so did the vast landscapes that the games housed.

The sound effects were just like what the game would sound like if it was live, right in front of you! From the Pikmin throwing, to the machine sounds, you won't be let down. There wasn't much music in the game, which is one of the two reasons I gave it a 9.5 instead of a 10. The other is this:

The dungeons in the game were MANY, but the types weren't. You get mostly metal, dirt, snow, or sewer. Although they light up in many different ways, I feel there could have been more.

Overall, the game awed me, and I still play it more than most other games. Buy this when you get the chance!
