Hybrid Heaven, Echo Night 2 rate highly

[08.07.99] » Famitsu gives above-average marks to two recent releases.

   As always, the latest issue of Japan's Weekly Famitsu magazine contains plenty of tough game reviews. The highest score given by the magazine in the issue is the perfect score awarded to Namco's Dreamcast fighter Soul Calibur, but two RPG / adventure releases picked up decent scores as well.

   Konami's action RPG Hybrid Heaven walked away with two 8s and two 7s, for a total of 30 (out of a possible 40). ASCII's Echo Night 2 scored slightly higher; it received scores of 9, 8, 8, 7, for an overall grade of 32 out of 40.

   Hybrid Heaven will meet North American reviewers in September, when the English version of the game ships. No U.S. release is currently planned for Echo Night 2, though the game's predecessor, Echo Night 1, recently arrived courtesy of Agetec.
