The easiest of the Time Crisis games, but a hallmark of me roaming Dave and Busters back when I was a kid. I have yet to find a game with more satisfying pistol sound effects than this.
Maybe controversial, but I think I'm not as hot on this one as most. I think the change to the scoring and combo system is for the worse—I prefer TC1's more punishing time limits—and for as propulsive and exciting as the setpieces can be in TC2, it all feels like a half step to TC3's full realization. You get some weapon variety here, but it's more a stepping stone to 3's full weapon changing system.
TC2 just represents a half step toward more complexity, but not far enough to really pull me in as its own unique take on the series. The only thing holding it back is really that feeling that it's stuck between the worlds of TC1 and 3 in terms of design.
Crisis Mission Mode, where you perform a series of short shooting gallery challenges, is a fun addition that extends replay value, but it's got nothing on TC1's full blown original campaign on PS1.
Still a must play for any fans of the series or the genre. All the strengths of the original are mostly still here.

Very fun. Please play it with the pistol.
Muchas tardes tras salir del cine he jugado con mi padre a este juego en las recreativas. Está bien perrón.
This was one of the first shooter games I played back in elementary. Finally beating it with my brother at the same arcade we first played will be unforgettable. The story is straightforward and reminds me of Metal Gear. The enemies and boss battles are iconic and the shooting feels great. The most rewarding 100 pesos I spent.
Ya no jala en mi tele
Time Crisis II (1997): Cierto que en consolas pierde parte de su atractivo al no ser tan inmersivo, aunque el diseño sigue siendo bueno y se mantiene muy divertido. Lástima que la historia sea cutre hasta para estos estándares y que la duración cojee incluso para un arcade (6,90)
Time Crisis 2 is THAT old?! They still have one of these in a bowling alley I used to go to.
This machine took my damn lunch money, 10/10.
Peak of gaming we have only gone down hill from here
I want to replay the coin-op of this so badly, but arcades are disappearing sadly. The gun system of this game was awesome and engaging, even if a little too punishing from what I remember.
Playing this with a friend is probably the coolest you will ever feel in your entire life
man i love time crisis 2, if i wasn’t such a big house of the dead fan id call it my favorite light gun game. loved the clickety clackety recoil the blue gun controller would do
As a kid I mangaged to beat this on my own in the arcade with about $20 worth of quarters.
Played through the entire game (with quarters!) Back in the late 90s as an 8 year old, myself, a fellow 3rd grade friend, and two of our summer camp junior counselors played through this game all the way at the arcade, rotating 2-and-2 when we died...one of those epic memories where I have to give 5 stars for the special place in my heart.
i spent so much money on this game in the arcade so much fun would recommend to anyone and everyone
