Hatsune Miku Project Diva 2nd Soundtrack
Trudi Kuzyk
Hatsune Miku may have headlined her own stadium shows as a projected act, supported acts like Lady Gaga (never heard of her), and even made her American television debut on the 'Late Show with David Letterman', but Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA F 2nd making it to these shores is arguably her biggest achievement yet. Her presence outside of Japan is growing, and there's a sizable fanbase, globally, that simply can't get enough of her. Improving on the last game as much as it can, the tweaks to the DIVA room and edit modes are nice, the soundtrack's impressively varied - if not as memorable as it was before - and the only real iffy bit is the difficulty level. If you've never played a Project DIVA game before, I'd recommend starting with Project DIVA F, as the learning curve is a lot shallower. For everyone else, this is more Miku - and that's not a bad thing.
