Virtua Striker 2 Sega1997Virtua Striker 2, the sequel to the smash hit Virtua Striker, has been filling up the arcades. This game is now the most unbelievably realistic game I have ever seen. Using the Model 3 board, everything about this game has been made faster, better, and pardon my grammar:funner.

The graphics from the original Virtua Striker have been smoothed out and the players look incredible. Detail has been taken to a point where the players have different hair, cheekbones, and realistic eyes. But graphics can't be good without movement. VS2's movement has been a big
upgrade from the original. They walk, they run, they kick, they roll in pain, they take drinks, and they dance after scoring a goal in the most human like ways. Players even shake hands after a game is over. Virtua Striker's slightly blocky bodies and sometime akward movement, have been
transformed by the Model 3, into real people.

I'm not sure what to say about the sound. The sound from the original game was already great. Since Sega couldn't really make the sound better, so I feel they just made the sound a bit less muffled and a bit sharper. The crowds still chant official team songs, players yell in pain after being tackled, and the same great voice of the guy yelling,"GOOOOOAAAALLLL!".
