Game description: Drakengard 2 is the sequel to the original Drakengard, which was brought to America by Square Enix. This addition to the series continues the action-focused role-playing gameplay as you continue to explore and protect the red dragons. The game combines 3D flying and shooting aspects, as well as ground combat. Drakengard 2 adds new features, such as the ability to switch among characters and to use magic.
The game is the second entry in the Drakengard series and a direct sequel to the original Drakengard: the story revolves around Nowe, a boy raised by the dragon Legna, fighting against a tyrannical faction of Knights, encountering characters from the previous game and becoming entangled in the fate of the world.

NTSC-U	Windows 10 x64	Intel Core i5-3570K @ 4.2GHz Nvidia GTX 560ti 1GB	1.5.0-2388	GSdx		EE/VU Clamp modes: Extra+Preserve Sign/Normal. 60fps all the way thru using 3x native res on the 560ti. Higher res would slow down when special effects are happening. Needs EE clamping set to "Extra+Preserve Sign" or "Full" for some characters and breakable objects to show correct colors. Game is too blurry even at the highest resolutions.	Shadow Lady
