4.0 out of 5 stars A Steady Shooter Worthy Of Your PSP Library June 17, 2008

By Wesley Jacobs

Fun: 4.0 out of 5 stars   

Before you buy this game, you need to know one thing: this is basically the original Heroes, with a few things thrown in. If you already own the original Heroes, the only reason why you should buy this game is for the online play, which I will get too soon.

I've always been iffy about World War II shooters, because they always feel the same to me. Call of Duty on the PSP was an OK game, but never really lived up to the amazing impact of the previous games. I have to admit, at first this game came across to me as just another standard and tried-and-true shooter. But as you play through the game you actually want to get those unlockables, you actually want to get those medals, etc. If a first person shooter is missing in your library, this is a very worthy one to fill in that spot.

Graphics - 9/10: The character models, guns, and overall environments are obviously a step up of the previous Heroes. It definitely pushes the limits of the PSP. The only thing that I found wrong was the character animations were lacking. When you kill someone (especially online) the person sometimes just stands their and disappears. And grenades don't send someone diving or keeling over, but they just get it and fall to their feet. Kind of irked me.

Sound - 10/10: Obviously the games strong point. Music, voices, gunshots, explosions... this has got it all.

Gameplay - 8/10: I found myself occasionally wanting the dual analog of the PS2, but the controls are very tight. Although, sometimes just feels to much of that generic FPS feel.

Depth - 7.5/10: The campaign is utterly short, should take about 2 to 4 hours, depending on the difficulty, but online play is where it's at. Up to 32 people (including you) in one map.

Overall - 8/10

The bottom line of all of this is that this is a very steady and strong first person shooter. Online play is easily the strongpoint of it. It's phenomenal. If your missing a first person shooter in your library, you should definitely consider picking this up. Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 stars very fun January 7, 2008

By Gabrielle Sorber

Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   

This game is soooo fun and can be easy and also chalenging. I love the infastructure mode where you can play on the internet if you own a wifi hotspot. You can play people from around the world. It's pretty insane. I'm terrible on the online mode. But the only hard part about it is that the controls, to look, you press the triangle, circle, x, and square buttons. And to move forward, backward, strafe from right to left, you have to use the analog. But the buttons are further apart than the arrow keys, so it makes it a little more chalenging. But there is a southpaw control layout if your good! Overall, I'd give this game a five out of five because for one, I'm not a harsh judge, and two, there are the coolest graphics I've ever seen for the psp, and three, I love too kill stuff and if you're in the same league, then you will LOVE this game. If you are reading this review, I am totally giving you my advise, BUY THIS GAME!!!

3.0 out of 5 stars Some major flaws keep this from being a top shooter on PSP March 29, 2012

By Richard Baker

Fun: 3.0 out of 5 stars   

The Good: Great graphics and audio, improved Heroes formula, superb 32 player infrastructure

The Bad: Shorter than anything, level design flaws galore, not enough maps, enough with WWII already

Yes it's ANOTHER WWII game but that's besides the point. Heroes 2 offers a great experience on the PSP that surpasses any other WWII shooter on any handheld. While Heroes 2's single player is improved by actual story driven objectives instead of CTF oriented missions. This makes the game more of a challenge and less repetitive. While there are only 8 missions they are fairly long and give you plenty to do.

Heroes doesn't stray far from the MoH formula or WWII formula at that which can make it dull after awhile. The game is riddled with level design flaws such as huge open areas with little to no cover and tons of enemies coming at you, it's enough to make you angry. The multiplayer is the beef here with 32 players like last time but few maps. Heroes 2 is a great portable FPS (probably the best there is) and if you can stomach the flaws and briefness then have at it soldier.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excelent game, too short April 17, 2011

This game is awesome, great graphics, great gameplay. My only complain is about gameplay time, campaign mode is too short.

On the other hand I can tell that online mode gameplay is excelent.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best for the PSP April 24, 2010

By Scott Kirk

Verified Purchase

Fun: 4.0 out of 5 stars   

This game had the feel of Medal of Honor: Frontlines for the PS2. For this reason alone, I absolutely adore it. The whole game is driven by one mission instead of a series of battles and it not only has amazing graphics but also a fairly good story for a WWII game.

Fun: 4.0 out of 5 stars   

It took me about 3 hours to complete the whole easy campaign and overall it was quite fun. I thought that the campaign was too short and the ending wasn't very good. The multiplayer is horrible though
