    Very good game. Challenging, good character variety and modes. Enjoying every bit of it.

    I didn't pay much of the first Windjammers game, but this sequel makes me wish I had. All the tight controls, fast paced strategic plays and offense / defense juggling you'd expect from a fighting game, but in a neat volleyball-but-with-frisbees package.

    Ce machin rétronisé est la suite d’un vieil étron qui sévissait sur la Neo Geo dans les années 90… C’est vaguement et rapidement remis au goût du jour en « HD » mais ça reste de la 2D en 256 couleurs (quand elles sont toutes là) criardes et désagréables. L’animation est très saccadée et symptomatique de la 2D animée pas animée ou si mal animée que ça pique les yeux direct !

    La musique Bontempi a été refusée par des ascenseurs pourtant peu regardants dans ce domaine… elle casse gravement les oreilles en moins de cinq secondes chrono. Quant au ‘jeu’ lui-même, on dirait un Pong dégénéré en technicolor bien faisandé : c’est injouable et rapidement ennuyeux et complètement nul à chier comme tout étron rétron indé, cela va sans dire.    … Expand

    Un suficiente porque es una saga mítica y para los fans creo que al menos cumple con lo mínimo.

    Fuera de ahí es un juego para una tarde suelta o echar unas partidas con un amigo, poco más. Además es muy flojo para jugadores nuevos, ya que el tutorial es una mierda, no hay un modo para un jugador que te explique nada ni que te motive a seguir jugando. Recomendado solo para fans de    Un suficiente porque es una saga mítica y para los fans creo que al menos cumple con lo mínimo.

    sigue siendo el típico arcade que había en las maquinas del bar cuando eramos pequeños, juego para días con unos minutos muertos echarle una partidita.

    Peu de contenu hors ligne, mais nombre d'heures incalculables à jouer en ligne. Gameplay simple, mais avec énormément de richesse qu'on découvre au fil des matches.

    It may be several decades since the original was released, but the sportsmanship torch has been proudly passed onto Windjammers 2. It may lack a comprehensive offline arcade mode, but you can still get windswept into its addictive gameplay cycle and online competition.

    Windjammers 2 is a really great game. There’s a nice community of players still going strong online and this game could be a great controller passing time for local play. Sure, the tutorial is a bit rough, but just playing and experimenting with the game allowed me to get better and have a fun time with it. Anyone who is into arcadey sports titles and to a lesser extent, fighting games should give this one a try.

    I honestly expected Windjammers 2 to be quite a simple and bland experience, but there’s some depth to its gameplay for only using a couple of buttons. If you missed out on the original Windjammers, don’t sleep on this sequel. It may seem like an odd mashup of sports, but it works and becomes quite addicting once you become a badass Windjammer.
