Hey guys, this is my first review, and its on my 3rd favorite game of all time, Earthworm Jim 2. This game is just amazing, it does everything a sequel SHOULD do. I'll go over each reason why. Starting now.

Graphics: For the time, and now, it looks awesome. It feels like you're playing a cartoon.  Jim himself is well animated, from his walk cycle to the idle animations. Also, the backgrounds are great for a Genesis game, it makes full use of the many colors of the Genesis. Overall, it looks good for the time, and it looks good today.

Sound: Music wise, it sounds great. You can thank the amazing Tommy Tallerico.  The music does its job by fitting the level its in, even if its used more than once. My favorite music tracks are Anything but Tangerines, Lorenzen's Soil, The Big Top Polka(Game Show), and See Jim Run Run Jim Run. However, its not as good as the soundtrack for the Saturn version, but this one fits the game.

        For the sound effects, they're also good. Surprisingly, its high quality for Genesis standards. When Jim speaks, it doesn't sound bad, which is great. The others are great.

Addictiveness: There's not much to say, but its addicting. Once you beat it, you might want to try another difficulty. Although this game has a password system, you can addicted to the point where you beat the game without a password.

Story: Overall, its okay. However, there's not much to it other than save the princess. Its basically as basic as you can get with a story in a game. I would've given it a lower score, but the ending saves because of the humor. Besides, story isn't important the Earthworm Jim series.

Depth: Although this game is short, you want to come back to it after playing. After playing on a certain difficulty, you can step it up even though you get now special ending. Its a fun game to play, and it keeps me coming back every time. However, the depth is up to the thoughts of the player.

Difficulty: Depending on the setting you're on, it can be easy or hard. Regardless, this game can be tough. While not as hard as the original, some levels can kick your butt. Also, getting the password isn't fun. It goes like this, there's four objects throughout each level, and its a pain sometimes. Not to mention, this game is scarce with extra lives, not that you need them. On Easy, its fair. On Normal, its in between, but it has its cheap moments. On Difficult, you will get frustrated. Aggravating levels such as The Flying King, Puppy Love, and Udderly Abducted  become a nightmare. Basically, the difficulty varies.

Earthworm Jim 2 was a pretty cool game. Not quite as cool as the first game, but it was alright. I kind of find it out of context, really. I mean, yeah, its pretty cool, but it feels like the story is different. Oh wait, it is.

Great review. Keep it up.
