  Parasite Eve - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Parasite Eve is a survival horror RPG video game published by Square Co., Ltd. loosely based on the novel of the same name.
Eve states that she is going to give Aya more time to evolve and escapes while Aya is distracted battling a giant mutated crocodile.
Parasite Eve is like a survival horror with many RPG elements, but the movement in the various scenarios is free.

 List of minor Parasite Eve characters - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
During the events of Parasite Eve, Daniel serves as a supporting role for the Aya, giving her encouraging words of experience while he attempts to function with the terms of his divorce and the eventual death of his ex-wife.
She is transformed into a NMC by Eve later in the game while attending a concert with Ben, who wasn't affected due to his being away from the area.
In Parasite Eve II, Aya departed the NYPD police out of respect for her comrades due to the awakening of her mitochondrial powers and joined a group called "MIST" (Mitochondrion Investigation and Suppression Team).

 RPGFan Reviews - Parasite Eve II
Eve, a creature created from mutated Mitochondria within a host's body, is now dead, and the remaining Neo-Mitochondrian Creatures, hideous mutations of normal animals, are no longer being produced.
Parasite Eve was a game that mixed standard RPG features like levels, magic, and armor into the infamous run-for-your-life gameplay of the Survival Horror series.
Parasite Eve 2 is an even bigger jump from the usual RPG realm.

Parasite Eve fans may or may not be disappointed in Parasite Eve II, depending on what aspects of it they originally enjoyed.
Parasite Eve II is game developer Squares second attempt to break into the survival horror genre, while trying to maintain the uniqueness of their franchise by keeping a minor RPG slant.
While Parasite Eve II meets most of the criteria for a fairly good horror shoot-em-up, the biggest problem with it is that it doesnt really add anything that hasnt been done before several times.

 Parasite Eve II On GameVortex.com
Parasite Eve II 'evolved' (pardon the pun) quite naturally into a more traditional survival horror game from its more RPG roots, and regardless of whether or not you took a liking to the changes made for the second game, you'll probably enjoy the atmospheric, moody grooves this soundtrack album from TOKYOPOP features.
Eve, the matriarch of this new race, is at once a frightening creature and an elegant queen.
Parasite Eve II would definitely carry a 'sexy' tag as one of its key components as a game, and the OST doesn't fail to satisfy on that front.

 N¥M NET / Evaluation / Parasite Eve II
Some of the more remarkable graphical touches found within Parasite Eve II are the Full Motion Video sequences that run in a few of the backgrounds.
So when I heard that the original Parasite Eve's control scheme was scraped in favor of the control scheme of Capcom's Resident Evil, I wasn't exactly thrilled.
Parasite Energy is another interesting feature, as Aya must "revive" her powers from the original game using her experiences (Experience Points) as payment.

 IGN: Parasite Eve II Review
In the game's sequel, Parasite Eve II, Square is continuing the general storyline of the original, which followed the exploits of young Aya Brea, a NYPD officer, as she struggled to unravel the mystery of Eve, a young woman responsible for a string of ghastly deaths in New York City.
Eve had been transformed by self-aware mitochondria and possessed the power to mutate animals into savage killing machines, cause innocent people to spontaneously combust, and just generally cause a whole lot of trouble.
The backgrounds in Parasite Eve II are some of the most visually stunning that you'll find on the system and are extremely detailed.

 Parasite Eve 2 Review for PlayStation - Gaming Age
Parasite Eve and its "cinematic RPG" moniker did little for the awkward real-time/RPG battle system that plagued the pace of the game.
Parasite Eve 2 changes that with a full-on action oriented battle system that's much faster and user friendly.
Parasite Eve 2 is a good sequel that would have been great if the story had more substance.

 Welcome to the GameVortex
The graphics in Parasite Eve II are wonderfully pre-rendered backgrounds, a la Resident Evil, only far more vibrant and involved.
Parasite Eve II eases you into the game by giving you some time to become acclimated to the controls before you are presented with your first set of enemies.
I found Parasite Eve II to be a fun, action-packed game that will be a joy for any fan of the genre, but one that also has enough rpg details added to intrigue those gamers who prefer a more cerebral gaming experience.

 Parasite Eve II - Retroview
As I said, Parasite Eve II adopts an annoying system of 3-D movement, where she moves forward by pressing up and backwards (very slowly), by pressing down, turning when left or right are pressed.
As far as creativity goes, Parasite Eve II tries too hard to be like survival horror games in the ranks of the Resident Evils, and fails in that respect.
In conclusion, the second, and evidently the last, Parasite Eve, is disappointing, hardly Squaresoft’s answer to the Resident Evils.

 Parasite Eve (psx: 1998): Reviews
Parasite Eve has been one of the only RPGs since Final Fantasy 7 to genuinely deserve any kind of hype, or at least anticipation.
Parasite Eve will leave you thrilled, chilled, and a little hungry, but it’s well worth the price of admission.
Along with the linearity of the game, these features may turn a lot of gamers away from Parasite Eve before it's been given a fair chance...[But w]ith groundbreaking graphics and a great style of gameplay, Parasite Eve has become a classic that no RPG fan should be without.

Parasite Eve blended an involving storyline with a fairly sophisticated and, as far as I'm aware unique, RPG type (but far better than usual) tactical fighting system.
Overall parasite eve 2 was a let down not only in gameplay but in sound effects and others i am not even going to bother mentioning.
Much like the graphics really, Parasite Eve II does suffer like most games from "Playstation" syndrome (fantasticly amazing and engrossing cut scenes but rather blocky graphics the rest of the time.) however I was quite surprised that whilst this does still apply the backgrounds are of a constantly high standard.

Parasite Eve was a gamble by Squaresoft to diversify and expand its franchises, because it was designed to be a cinematic RPG, a different type of role-playing game from Final Fantasy style.

 My Parasite Eve Preview
One of Square’s most turbulently discussed RPGs in the last few years was Parasite Eve, a “cinematic RPG” that left gamers feeling either invigorated or downcast.

It's fortunate for testeronically charged gamers that whenever some sort of alien or monstrous trouble breaks out, the best man for the job (in games) is a woman, and usually a young, curvaceous woman in short-shorts.
Parasite Eve II picks up the story shortly after the first game left off.
Ultimately, Parasite Eve II is a tough game to score; it had the potential to be a really great game.

Also on your side is Aya's Parasite Energy, which enables her to harness elemental power, such as a searing column of fire, to fight the monsters.
Parasite Eve II is not as special as PEI, but it certainly is a great game, and in many ways, it is better than the first Parasite Eve title.

The battle system used in PEII is very similar to that of Vagrant Story for the PSX, where the battles are in real-time and players are required to target an enemy and use a specific attack from a scroll down menu.
But beware as this parasite energy is limited to a number of MP and as soon as you run out you’ll quickly need to restore those vital lost MP to be able to use the powers again.
Parasite Eve II slots nicely into the survival horror genre perfectly and even slips in elements of an RPG to make the gameplay varied and exciting and almost different in each section of the game.

 Parasite Eve II for PlayStation 1 Reviews at Shopping.com
The game, Parasite Eve, is based on the novel of the same name, which in turn is based on the hypothesis of U.C. Berkeley biochemists Wilson and Cann.
This conclusion was reached by studying the mitochondrial DNA of a group of women from “various ethnic backgrounds” and determining the point of convergence of the mitochondrial DNA sequence.
Parasite Eve 2 is a dramatic departure from its predecessor, trading in the more RPG-based elements of weapon modification and turn-based combat for a fully real-time game play system similar to Resident Evil, or more accurately, to Metal Gear Solid.

The customizability of the game has been retained in Parasite Eve II, however, with realistic weapon enhancements that provide Aya and her weapons with new and improved capabilities.
In addition to the firepower, Aya still has her all important "Parasite Energy" which enables her to harness the power of the elements to take on her new enemies.

Mitochondria are actually dormant parasites that have learned to live with the body...until some of them go bonkers and start mutating animals.
Dumb story points aside, Parasite Eve 2 does do well in its gameplay, sort of a segmented Resident Evil.
The first Parasite Eve was the self-hailed "Cinematic RPG." The so-called "cinematics" in Parasite Eve 2 are generally less riveting.

 Science Fiction Game Reviews
Square takes a risk with Parasite Eve II, adding roleplaying elements to a genre that has resisted such influences for years.
As it is, the game is good, but if Aya's gun didn't have a wacky device that counts BP whenever she kills something, the game would deliver even more.
Despite the distractions of experience points and BP, Parasite Eve II delivers some chilling scenes, a number of cool monsters and a satisfactory amount of Aya running around in tight shorts.
