Grandia 2 Review (PS2) at IGN.

Since this RPG will be coming to the PC, too, we thought you might be interested in a Grandia 2 review for the PS2 version over at IGN. They are not enthusiastic, rating the game 7.0/10, and making these final remarks:
    I'm not sure what the current state of the secondary Dreamcast market is right now, but I do know that a few months ago, at least, you could buy a new Dreamcast on clearance and a copy of Grandia II to play on it for about as much money as the brand-new PlayStation 2 version will cost you now. Maybe it would cost a little more than $50, but you'd get a Dreamcast out of the deal, meaning you could get on with playing Bangaioh (since I know you haven't yet).

    Viewed purely in the context of the PlayStation 2, of course, Grandia II is perhaps one of the top three RPGs on the system. If you don't want to buy anything for any other system (ya doink), go ahead and pick this up. It has its ups and its downs, and it certainly isn't the equal of its predecessor, but it's a good-looking game and an absolutely great-playing one, which is getting to be a harder thing to say of RPGs nowadays. Nevertheless, Dreamcast fans get to lay down at least this one trump card -- Sega's system did it better.
