Choum Reap Sor, soul-stirring VGM listeners, and welcome back again to a new dimension of obscure VGM as we go in-depth with a game that was released in Asia, specifically in India.

To explain further, we will be checking a game that has a similar name to the movie itself, known as Don 2 : The Game as it was marketed in several neighboring countries in 2013 for the PSP and PS2 combined.

By examining the plot itself, most of the story is slightly different from how it is from the original concept of the movie as the main character, Mark Donald a.k.a "Don" (Played by Shah Rukh Khan) is now sending his regards in bloodshed towards Jaruwan, a Malaysian Drug Lord who has betrayed him at the start of the level, where he resides in an undisclosed location in Thailand due to operating a massive drug cartel in dealing with the European Mafia. Once Don has assassinated Jaruwan, he went further on confronting the European Mafia, including their enforcer, Sylvester as they have a certain connection with Jaruwan altogether. Thus, ending the close relationship between both sides by the beginning of the storyline.

Up until then, Don has made a complex plan of executing a heist with Vardhaan at the DZ Bank for a certain purpose. However, things didn’t seem to work out between them after the events of the first movie itself. Ergo, will Don be able to search for the items he needed inside the bank and claim himself the King of the European Underworld? Play it and find out by yourself.

Straight to the point on reviewing the soundtrack, it accommodates the “calm before the storm” phrase as this track interprets the common ideal of tranquility in preparation for the worst to arrive towards the player themselves. The pause menu is one of the examples to display this type of track whenever you feel safe, which is suitable for solacing your senses into a clear direction of paths to accomplish several missions before the last in undertaking certain consequences to follow.

With that in mind, the most significant moment to be heard from this track itself is in the duration of 0:35, as it defines the peculiar meaning of life, death, and honor for Don to make this right before it is too late to overcome. Consider it as a gift before you step into the demise of your enemies themselves.

Lastly, in ending this memorable review, I will be rating the current standards of this track. By that, I rate this a 7 out of 10 in confirming its status of this review. Hence, clarifying the prepared quote from The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena, it has shown to be quite immersive into the storyline itself as there is hope around your surroundings which is known to be true such as the next sentence below. “They say... hope begins in the dark. But most just flail around in the blackness searching for their destiny. The darkness, for me, is where I shine.” [Riddick] Therefore, thank you for listening.
