Pikmin 2

"A lot of work has gone into making the Pikmin stupidly loveable, and they are more expressive and entertaining than ever before."

"...it's easy on the eye, taxes the brain just enough, and keeps you entertained no matter who you are. Blooming brilliant."

"The anemone-bright herds of obliging Pikmin and the delicate detail of the gardens soften the edges of what would otherwise be a stubbornly serious strategy game."

"With Pikmin 2, Nintendo has addressed the bulk of the shortcomings of its predecessor by crafting a game that tops the original in nearly every way."

"There are still days and nights when you're outside. The sun rises and sets and at the end of the day the Pikmin are returned to their pods (except the purple ones, which go with Olimar and Louie to their ship). But the 30-day timer that hung over the first game is gone. Gamers can take as many days as they need to complete the game. Even better, time does not move while gamers are in the many caves, which also play a big part in the sequel."
