 GameSpy: Zone of the Enders: The 2nd Runner Review
Zone of the Enders 2 is improved over the original in most places, but frustratingly the same in others.
This is most obvious with the game's various sub-weapons, some of which exist solely for one or two minor objectives and fade into functional obscurity thereafter.
While this is disappointing, the game does feature some of the most amazing and over-the-top action sequences in just about any game ever, deftly fitting that "short but sweet" clich we expect from Hideo Kojima.

Confusion over whether the game had finished, which saw Australia celebrate victory for ten minutes before being asked to play three more overs, had reduced the competition to an "international laughing stock," the paper said.
Moreover, the World Cup was "dull and one-sided", with Australia comfortably winning every game they played, leaving outgoing coach John Buchanan to say the difference between the Aussies and the rest was as "between night and day," it said.
The game, in fact, was already completed under international cricket rules because Sri Lanka had batted the minimum 20 of their reduced allotted 36 overs and failed to reach their target.

 Zone of the Enders: The 2nd Runner (PlayStation 2) PlayStation 2 Game reviews - CNET Reviews
Zone of the Enders: The 2nd Runner epitomizes almost everything a sequel should be insofar as it improves upon its predecessor in every conceivable manner--and there was a lot to improve upon.
The original Zone of the Enders was heavily criticized for its whiny protagonist, self-indulgent storyline about killing and war, and its gameplay, which ultimately fell short of delivering the epic anime-style mech battles that the game was so obviously inspired by.
The game also tries to deliver a story that's a little more palatable, with fewer lessons on the grim reality of war--though, it's certainly worth pointing out that the story in The 2nd Runner is just as pervasive as, if not more pervasive than, the story in the original.
