|gameinfo          = Forbidden Siren 2 is a haunting tale set on the island of Yamijima. The story starts as a group of characters are washed up on the island's shore after their boat is caught in a violent storm. Unbeknown to them, 29 years earlier all the inhabitants of the island mysteriously disappeared in a black-out. Up until now the events of that ill-fated night remain unsolved. But as the chilling sound of a warning siren rings out over the island, the castaways are faced with the awakening of the Shibito (living dead) and the Yamibito (people of the dark). To survive the island, players need to use light to their advantage. Both the Yamibito and Shibito are sensitive to light - but in opposing ways. To wipe out the Yamibito players need to turn lights on but, to escape the Shibito players need to eliminate light, smashing street lamps, or hiding in the darkness. Players can also use a variety of weapons to dispose of their enemies as well as running them down by using abandoned vehicles.<br />
|wikipedia        =
Sequel to ''[[Siren]]'' (Forbidden Siren in Europe). Like its predecessor, Forbidden Siren 2 is divided into numerous scenarios, organized chronologically in a table called the "Link Navigator". In order to complete a scenario, the player must accomplish a primary mission objective that usually involves reaching an exit point, subduing certain enemies (called "Shibito" and "Yamibito"), or finding an item. Objectives in different scenarios are interconnected via a butterfly effect, and a character's actions in one scenario can trigger a secondary objective in another.<br>
|gameinfo         =
The game's defining feature is the characters' collective ability to "sightjack," or see and hear from the perspectives of nearby shibito, yamibito, humans, and other creatures.<br>
The game was released in Japan, Australia and Europe in 2006.

==Known Issues==
{{Issue
|IssueName=Post-processing effects not present
|IsFixed=0
|IssueLevel=0
|AffectedVersions=All
|Description=The grid like full screen effect is missing in hardware mode being replaced by black vertical lines instead. Also some dark areas are a bit brighter than originally intended.
|Workaround=Currently no post-processing support in GSdx. Switch to software mode.
}}
{{Issue
|IssueName=Sightjack visuals
|IsFixed=0
|IssueLevel=0
|AffectedVersions=All
|Description=The visuals are not properly rendered in HW mode. A semi transparent bar is the middle off the screen and the cloudy vision of the shibitos have blinking rectangular shapes.
|Workaround=Software mode.
}}
{{Issue
|IssueName=Tsukasa Sightjack
|IsFixed=0
|IssueLevel=0
|AffectedVersions=All
|Description=It is a special sightjack where you control Mikami Shu through the eyesight of his dog, Tsukasa. The problem here is, that nothing is visible in sightjack mode. Special sightjacks also include reminiscence scenes, other R3 control and child Shu eyesight.
|Workaround=Playable under software mode.
}}
{{Issue
|IssueName=SPS (Spiky Polygon Syndrome) issue
|IsFixed=0
|IssueLevel=1
|AffectedVersions=All
|Description=The game levels are often filled (more or less) with spiky artefacts. About the 1st third of the game has lot of these. Later on very few or non existent. Both in HW and SW mode.
|Workaround=Nothing. At this time the game is not fully emulated.
}}
{{Issue
|IssueName=Driving a car after tutorial level
|IsFixed=0
|IssueLevel=2
|Description=The controls of the car are not working after the tutorial level. You can play fine for the first time, but in later levels, where you have to use a car to advance, the controls are simply not working. You can enter the vehicle though.
|Workaround=The only solution I found was to restart the emulator. Used save states before entering the car. After that I had no issues in the same level, re-entering the car multiple times, etc. But in next level you need to restart as described before.
