The Bottom Line:
"Boring"
Gameplay: Warcraft II: The Dark Saga, is not as intresting as the one on PC. So this game is pretty much like the PC version, where at the start you get a handfull of workers and a few soldeirs. Then you build up your base and army of soldiers and ships. So most of the 52 missions require that you utterly overwhelm your opponent and burn down all his halls and farms till there is no one left. Also the Storyline is pretty much the same as the PC version. This time there is no Multiplayer for the Playstation version of Warcraft 2. People who like this game will be shocked to find that there some things have been changed, such as the ability to auto-upgrade auto-build soldiers, buildings and select more troops at once. so this becomes almost like a chess game where you send in invidiual soldiers to attack and practly get killed of one by one if your on the offence. Also the contols are just harder to use when you are using the Playstation Conroller. I prefer the mouse and keyboard to play RTS

Graphics: The graphics has been improved from the first game obviosly. The graphcs is done in SVGA and has great detail for the most part. When it comes to the heads of the oger heads it looks a bit squished. Also the cut scence are well done and nice to look at.

Sound: The sound of the game is well done. The soundtrack of the game can really improve the intensity during the battles. Also the voice acting is well done too.

Value: There is only limited replay value in this version of WC2 on PS only the single player random map will keep you occupied after the single player campain which will not last for much fun afterwards. It's not a bad game but this fantast Real Time Strategy games are not quite my thing. All in all I give this game 6.5 out of 10
