Advance Wars 2: Final Verdict

Very dangerous.

Luckily, I caught the bug before it infested my soul and ate away at my core. The beast will no longer capture thoughts and dreams. It's going away now. In the same footsteps as it's predecessor, though outlasting it by quite a larger margin.

The lower difficulty in this game makes it much, much easier this time around. Advance Wars had me in a bind about 2/3rds the way through. Advance Wars 2 stuck me like a fishing hook. It tempted me with it's weak foreplay and teased me with it's stupidity, but in the end was quick to snare me by the cheek and yank really hard.

Somehow I managed to get away. Seeing the impending doom and knowing I can never survive on the other side of my plane of existence, I knew the lack of familiar environment would kill me. This victory of yours was celebrated without knowing my full wrath.

Away you will go AV2. Into the box from which you came and into storage with your outdated, 256mb cartridge, RCA umbilical dependent brethren. Your 99% stout gameplay is what is keeping you from going on eBay. That and your complete lack of monetary value to anyone thanks to Advance Wars DS. One day you may make it back for another challenge, but don't count on it.
