Tera Kirk reviews Fullmetal Alchemist 2: Curse of the Crimson Elixir, and finds her self beaten down yet again:
"God, I'm naïve. I haven't enjoyed a game based on a movie or a TV show for years. If they aren't watered-down versions of better games, they are the digital equivalent of getting my arm hacked off. But every time a new one comes along I think: "Maybe this one's different. Maybe somebody's actually worked on a game instead of just hoping a popular franchise will do the work for them." Though Fullmetal Alchemist 2: Curse of the Crimson Elixir doesn't quite grant my wish, it comes awfully close—much closer than most other film- and TV show-inspired games I've played."
