Advantages: graphics

Disadvantages: gameplay

zone of the Enders is a robot fighting game. A young boy named Leo Starbuck is thrown into a position of massive power by forces well out of his control.

Leo finds himself at the controls of an incredibly powerful robot fighter. In the game he is made to come to grips with the horrors of war and the pitfalls of life as he attempts to deal with his new responsibility.

This game tries too hard at making Leo a cute little, sympathetic character. His personality gets quite boring though and pathetic. Hardship after hardship hit him as he sees his friends murdered his father killed and his girlfriend shot. Perhaps a game not for the kiddies then. The graphics are rather good pushing the PS2 to its limits, with smooth movement, but the design end seemed lacking.


The game is ridiculously short and ends after only a few hours of play. Zone of the Enders is an action packed game but not a very interesting one. It is hard to imagine that the creator of ZOE also made the excellent metal gear solid.

After completing the game I traded it in and instead got something worthy of the money. Oh by the way you get Metal Gear Solid 2 demo included. If you can?t wait for MGS2, then you will probably buy ZOE just for that.
