    Not all the missions are wildly inventive, but the majority are satisfing and entertaining, and each is more fun than the original title's simplistic collection quests.

    Even so, the improvements to the controls and mechanics, plus an option to have a buddy jump in for co-op at any time, means there's never been a better time to pick up a Zap-O-Matic and vaporize some meatbags. [Nov. 2006, p.130]

    Flower power takes it on the chin here, and Love is agreeable enough to put it down for the count. And the mayhem here should be enough until Crypto turns his guns on bell-bottoms, disco, and Jimmy Carter. Watch the skies. [Nov. 2006, p.84]
  4. In the end, Destroy All Humans! 2 removes all the annoying issues from the first game, but also feels a little too safe in certain instances.

    Suffocatingly familiar. Excellent if you haven't played the original, disappointing if you have. [Christmas 2006, p.78]

    Now I've said this before, and probably before I'm finished I'll say it a few more times, but as you play, you can't help but feel that you're playing just another set of levels of the first installment. Even the boss levels are just as frustratingly difficult as before, but the rest of the game is a cakewalk.
  7. This game is, to me, nothing more than a sad attempt to cash in on the nominal successes of the first game.

I played a lot as a child and I remember being stuck in Japan for a LONG TIME, when I made it through and arrived in Russia it was one of the most memorable moments magicians of the game world for me. I remember spending hours in a specific part of Russia where 1 mutant was born behind a house, basically with that it was possible to infect civilians and cause a war, this game is really magical.

    And the co-op mode was also a lot of fun, that system of pulling you closer to your ally made my friend kill himself and me when we went flying off a volcano and ended up falling into the water lol

    Now I'm waiting for the remake, which is sure to come as Crypto 138 has already appeared in a "recent" trailer from THQ

Also, the needless A.I stupidity is a massive bonus. Anal probing policemen and then launching their corpse 300 feet sums up the game. It's a shame that 1)My ps2 broke
    2)The xbox original version is not backwards compatible.

There's a fair bit of crude humor and some stronger language, so don't let the young ones play, or even watch you play. Aside from that, however, this game is an improvement over the original. Lot's of new guns, some new mind powers, and, of course, the sixties makes this game more than a distraction, it makes it enjoyable. Expand

    Honestly, I found this game to be quite boring and dragging. The first one is much better.
