    The origion FF 2 can be played on Xbox 360. Not only dose it look better amd control better, it a better game. In fact its amazing , thats why they attemted a remake. and failed.

    The Wii game is a decent Horror game but it is completely ruined by the controls for me. Where the Wii u cintrols enhance the experiance the Wii u controls make it a barier. There is no quick turn, instead of

    The Wii game is a decent Horror game but it is completely ruined by the controls for me. Where the Wii u cintrols enhance the experiance the Wii u controls make it a barier. There is no quick turn, instead of useing the wii mote to point and aim( like a camera,) You twist the Wii mote to turn and point it down and up.. Ive heard people say they had no issues, but these people must have a wrist workout regiome, because it felt completely un natural and painful for me.. I am a massive fan of the series even the Wiiu game that didnt sell well, but this port is just to brocken and unplayable.

    Still a very good horror adventure. Too bad the bit too shaky camera controls are not an improvement. [Sept 2012]

    A great survival horror with combat that exacerbates the tension rather than distracts from its. [Oct 2012, p.65]

    Project Zero 2: Wii Edition is a state of the art survival horror, and this alone should be enough to tempt the genre's aficionados.
