Famitsu rates Valkyrie Profile, D2, and Biohazard 2 Value Plus

[12.16.99] » Games score between 0 and 40; more details inside.

   The almighty Hand of Famitsu has judged the latest batch of titles, and its wrath was merciful this week. Enix's two-dimensional PlayStation beauty, Valkyrie Profile, was the big winner of the week, with a 9/9/10/7 victory for 35 points. (It's rumored that the critical 7 came from a visiting Next Generation reviewer who felt the 2D graphics were "dated.") The eccentric Kenji Eno's Dreamcast adventure, D2, managed a 9/7/8/8 for an excellent 32. And Famitsu feels that good shovelware is still worth playing; Biohazard 2 Value Plus scored a 9/8/8/9 for a totally respectable 34. Thus Famitsu has written, and thus it shall be.
