It was kind of bothering me that Zwei 2 didn't have an entry in Wikipedia so I thought I'd correct it. Does anyone have any suggestions, such as what to add (besides more characters)? Are there any existing Falcom Wikipedia articles that I should look at for inspiration? Oh yeah, and how do you spell the Light Goddess's name? o__o Also, do you reckon anybody will care? Maybe we'd be better off with a hardcore gaming article or something... Which reminds me, there still isn't a Ys Seven article up either D:

Very Nice article. It might kinda hard to obtain data for but isn't there usually a 'reception' section detailing sales and reaction and whatnot? Also, can't 'Aplyes' also be interpreted as 'Apries'? (According to Chudah, RPGFan etc.)

Oops, I got Aplyes's name completely wrong before. Espina is easy enough to remember XD
Nice to know a HG article is being worked on. Somebody can also link to it from the Wikipedia article if needed.
In any case, I expanded the gameplay section a little. I'm not sure if I wrote too much. I wanted to include a few more details like the G Colloseum (sp?) and the museum, but I wasn't sure if they were relevant much. Maybe some of the stuff I wrote would suit better in the Zwei!! article (which is a little neglected).
A section on reception would be a great idea, but you're right that it's difficult to find anything. I don't know of many PC game review sites or magazines, in Japanese as well XD
I'll see what I can do anyway.

(Unlike oddities like "Crshe", where I very definitely WILL argue with Falcom!) ;) Romn. XD!

I don't mind Romn because I pronounce it the same way as Rohm, that Nazi guy. Always used to have fun saying his name fruitily in history lessons.
Aplyes though? That's just bizarre.

Screw your phonetic logic, it is no match for the power of 'it looks weird'.

Haha, I'm glad I'm not the only one who saw it that way.
That's a terrible name to anyone but the most devout fruit fans though ;-;

Like goddesses have time for computers! They have much more important issues to attend to.

After thorough, mind-blowing analysis, I discovered what's up with that post of Wyrd's. The lack of the " " after "With voodoo". Well, maybe.

You just gotta reveal yourself in the spam thread. xD

XD Wow, well it is a nice change of pace. You always seem very "serious" here on ALoY -- in spite of the fact that you're the biggest Popolocrois fan around these parts and clearly you have a kid inside of you wondering why he's so suppressed. I must hear more about this MMORPG though, it does sound hilariously fascinating.

Whoa, what kind of beast did I unleash with his topic? X D I'm more or less finished with the Zwei II article so I thought I'd try my hand with the original Zwei!!. There is one thing I'm stuck with, and that's details about the re-releases. Is there anything special about the PS2 and PSP releases that I should note down? I remember the PSP version added face graphics during dialogue, but I'm not sure about anything else.

This probably isn't worth mentioning in the article but there are some inconsistencies regarding the music credits. The PC version list four people within Sound Team jdk (Atsushi, Hayato, Wataru and Maiko), while the PSP version lists two (Hayato and Takahiro) - even though the compositions aren't different. Only the arrangements are. And that's by Jindo. Something similar is the case with both Gurumin ports. I may well be confused.

Thanks for the info ^^
Can you select which soundtrack you want in the PSP version? Like in Ys 1 and 2 Chronicles?
