Yep. Another Rune Factory 2 review just came out---by IGN this time.

Read it here. It got an 8.4/10, which is pretty good.

They actually made an interesting point this time: Rune Factory 2 is essentially Rune Factory fixed up and given a new coat of paint---but other than the characters, lands, and other surface features, everything is pretty much the same---so it isn't really a numeral-worthy sequel in that sense.

Nonetheless, it's still a very in-depth game and with a lot of lasting appeal. Plus, that sort of stuff (rehashing old games) happens a lot on the DS anyway, so it should be fine as long as they don't keep doing it for another 10 years, like the actual HM series tends towards. :]
