  Like RPG Maker XP, it gives you the chance to make your own game... sort of.

  By Jenuma | Review Date: May 15, 2005 | PS2

  It's incredibly difficult, trust me. First, I'll make a pro-con list for you to shape the review: Pro: 1. RPG Maker II gives you the chance to make a game with a storyline, unlike RPG Maker XP. 2. The game suppl... Read Full Review

  Young or Normal gamer: Try RPG Maker 3 first. This is an option if you want something faster than some PC makers.

  By Nje789 | Review Date: Mar 28, 2008 | PS2

  This review is about pointing something out about this game: It's perceived purpose, or niche it fills. On one hand, you've got free, downloadable fully 3-D game makers for PC you can get off the internet, and on th... Read Full Review

  RPG Maker 2 is a great game for those jr. game designers, but very hard, you actually gotta read the instruction manual.

  By Venoroth53535 | Review Date: Mar 28, 2008 | PS2

  RPG Maker 2 is a really fun game, it's kind of like playing the role of the "creator of worlds", you get to rise oceans, form mountains, and so forth. The game itself is great for those little game designers in all of u... Read Full Review

  It wasn't as amazing as I had hoped... (how many times has that happened)

  By newlemming | Review Date: Nov 17, 2007 | PS2

  It was so-so, even for a major RPG lover like me I can't say it was the best in the new series. RPG Maker had a much shorter learning curve and now I can adeptly type anything into the message window; but this new RPG Ma... Read Full Review

  I REALLY regret sellin this one!

  By Zeryus | Review Date: Aug 23, 2007 | PS2

  Now, this one is a lot more complicated than RPG Maker 3, trust me, the more complicated, the better. While the default battle system is really...I mean REALLY annoying, you can actually code your own, with enough kno... Read Full Review

  RPGM2 just isn't worth the effort as there are much better, similar tools out there.

  By Azurewraith92 | Review Date: May 06, 2007 | PS2

  Bottom Line: RPGM 2 offers much more customization than RPGM 1, but it is overly complicated and take forever to learn. Those really serious about game creation should probably look elsewhere. RPG Maker 2 caters to th... Read Full Review

  When you learn to use the complicated systems, it's a great game!

  By GruntsRCool | Review Date: Apr 01, 2007 | PS2

  I got the guide with the game and it still took me over 3 hours to learn the event system. And it took me 5 or more hours to fully understand the event system! I should have read the guide more... When you learn how to d... Read Full Review

  This game is very frusterating, but can be fun once you get past the frusteration and difficulty.

  By calui | Review Date: Aug 08, 2006 | PS2

  Gameplay 6: The gameplay on RPG Maker 2 is basically totally normal RPG turn based gameplay, excpet you can't even see yourself attacking your enemies, and litterally no innovation whatsoever. It's still decent gameplay ... Read Full Review
