An ordinary day in New York for rookie police officer Aya Brea. Christmas Eve is the present day, and you've decided to visit the opera theater. Now this is where the fireworks begin. Suddenly audience members are set on fire, toasted completely, and it appears that the lead vocal is the source of this burning terror. Yet you appear to be immune, and as a police officer you're always on duty, so you must confront the danger.There has to be some connection between the two of you, as that seems the only rational explanation. What if mitochondria are a species on its own, more advanced then humankind, and using them only to create environments and civilization for themselves? What if humankind are just hosts? What if mitochondria are the natural enemy of humankind? That would make Aya their natural enemy, so the battle for survival and uncovering the truth has already started.The game is played over six days, each day bringing its own quest. Environments range from Central Park and the American Museum of Natural History to a police office and hospital, all of them modeled like realistic places and most of them crawling with bloodthirsty mutant animals. Combat is different from traditional RPGs, as while you still take turns attacking and/or using parasite powers, you'll be able to run across the battlefield and dodge enemy fire or even strike from a better angle or behind. As Aya levels up she will gain access to parasite powers, such as healing or supercharging a bullet with energy. These powers will deplete a recharging energy bar, although the bar will recharge slower the longer combat drags on. Aya will find many guns of various types throughout the game, and every gun can be modified with extra stats, either with special items, or by breaking down another gun to move over its bonus stats or special effects. The same is true for armor Aya finds.

 One of my utter most favorite games that is also a cheek in cheek "sequel" to one of the most terrifying romance horrors of 80s Japan.

 who knew Square at the time could do survival horror and do a great job at it? they should do more games like Parasite Eve or even make the long over do Parasite Eve 3 that was announced but never released.

 To switch to disc 2 hit eject to say virtual cd drive is open, then hit switch to switch out the disc, & then hit insert to close virtual cd drive. Then you should be able to start your game

 There is a thread about playing disc 2... wow... what a painful workaround... it's not hard to do, but it shouldn't be that hard... any way this can be improved?
PoundDotBlam 07-03-13 - 11:58 PM
 Check that... it looked like it wasn't hard... but I couldn't get it to work.
