Viewtiful Joe 2 boasts the following features: * More viewtiful 2D/3D hybrid action spanning more stages * New second playable character - Now gamers can select Joe's girlfriend, Silvia, who not only struts around with her infamous pompoms but also wields a weapon that fires projectiles to fend off the fiendish foes that she encounters. * More than 40 different types of enemies to obliterate! * More diverse stages to explore - Viewtiful Joe 2 now takes players through new detailed movie themed environments including the jungle, underground ruins, ancient Japan, snowy mountains and outer space. * More variations of the Six Machine - Throughout the various stages, Joe's trusty aircraft transforms into various shapes to support his activities such as a cannon, drill or submarine. * In addition to Joe's infamous "Slow," "Mach Speed," and "Zoom In" visual effects (VFX) powers, the action is even hotter this time around when Silvia executes her own moves: "Slow," "Zoom In" and the new "Replay" VFX power. Replay a punch for three times the damage. Need to restore some health? Eat a hamburger and replay it so you get three times the effect! But beware, try not to use Replay when getting hit or suffer taking three times the damage! * "Viewtiful Touch" - Not only can players choose whomever they want to play at the start of the game, they can also switch between Joe and Silvia at anytime to adapt to different situations and solve puzzles.
