More challenging puzzles, larger levels and new zombies to battle. All of this will please people who liked the first game and none of this will change the minds of people who hate the first game. Some of the key problems with the game like the lack of communication between players still hasn't been solved. [JPN Import]

The best missions are better than the first Outbreak's but the others are too similar. Wait for the UK release to get the best of all words - online and fresh levels. [JPN Import; PSM2]

This game is an absolute gem. I remember when it came out and the potential this series had... I just hope we could get a new one.

Outbreak was simply ahead of its time a lot of people didn't give this game a chance for a handful of reasons, truly a diamond in the rough

A wonderful survival horror game. The new control scheme is so good that if Capcom were to redo all the previous RE games in the style of Outbreak they could probably convince me to go ahead and buy all four titles for a third time.

It’s not something I got a whole world of benefit out of, more a feeling of been here and done that, but for anyone eager to keep their enthusiasm for Outbreak going it’ll do the job.

One of the best multiplayer survival horror games and the only really good multiplayer Resident Evil that Capcom has made, everything about it works perfectly, the interaction between characters, the soundtrack, the game design and the depth in the story of each of the survivors! The only problem with this game was being released on Playstation 2 where Online on consoles was just starting to crawl, Capcom should release a port of these games on Steam at the very least so that people can enjoy the best part of this game, the multiplayer!

A title that shows so much potential in its unique gameplay, but it is also a title that shows how technological shortcomings can ruin an otherwise interesting game and render it a frustrating mess.

The game can only be seen as a disappointment for those expecting an online extravaganza (or for series veterans looking for something new).

Hard-core Resident Evil fans might consider renting "File #2." But for online thrills, I'd rather do "Halo," and for a real thrill, "Resident Evil 4" is much more worthwhile.

It's having to help brain-eatingly bad A.I. (alone) or trying to cooperate when you can't communicate (online) that makes survival horrible.

It's like trying to fly an airplane with no wings, and you can't even tell the passengers to kiss their asses good-bye. [May 2005, p.92]

Not as good as the first, but still very fun. The sequel kind of messed up the continuity of the first game, but the monsters from the older games were so cool to see in these graphics. Would recommend if you liked or loved the first Outbreak game.

Ahhhhhh,the good ol'e memories. i remember playing this game on my modded ps2. i downloaded it from online,burned it and started playing it. this game is actually like re 1/2/3 on ps2 but with good graphics and online play you would love it when you play it,the story line is brilliant and more importantly the bosses are cool plus you get to select your own different characters and campaigns and it's addictive as well. simply gonna love it. My rating for it would be 7.8/10

Resident Evil Outbreak File 2 me parece horrible. No me gusta el cooperativo forzado con 3 personas o más, además de que Capcom no sabe hacer IAs decentes. La cámara y tus compañeros son los verdaderos villanos de este juego y los puzzles te hacen perder tiempo. Este juego me parece una excusa para darles el dichoso online a América y Europa.
SummaryResident Evil Outbreak File #2 retains the signature Resident Evil storytelling, visuals, and bone-chilling audio that Capcom's survival-horror fans demand. Players join the eight characters from the first game in all new terrifying scenarios, with new locations, different enemies and further details of the truth behind the catostrophic ... Read More
