    Dead Effect 2 is a game with big aspirations that simply doesn’t reach the heights for which it shoots. Every neat premise is compromised by shoddy balancing, uninspired combat or strange design decisions. While there is a ton of content with 20 story missions and a bunch of additional game modes, none of it is as fun as it could have been.

    Dead Effect 2 is the perfect example of how not to make a port of a mobile to console game. It is a 'free to play' game turned into a payment game, with bugs, repetition, and a totally absurd plot with horrible gameplay. At least, they have not included micropayments like in mobile versions and it has a good amount of weapons and customizable character features.
