You manage to escape, but you are trapped inside a security room with no chance of getting out.
Your only hope lies in Rio, a lone woman, whom you guide by talking to her.
Guide her well, and she may be able to rescue you.
Rely on her, for she is your one and only life line.
Lifeline is the first game on the PlayStation 2 that is entirely voice controlled.
You do not directly control Rio.
Instead, you speak to her and tell her what to do.
If you want her to open the bathroom door, tell her to open the bathroom door.
If there is a keycard laying on the table, tell her to pick it up.
If a monster is closing in that she can't shoot, tell her to run away.
You explore the entire Space Station Hotel, from the kitchen to maintenance to bedrooms to bathrooms, finding items and encountering a slew of different enemies.
The game recognizes over two thousand words and phrases.
Commands generally consists of a noun and a verb, but many of those can be combined into a single command (e.g. reload, shoot, retreat).
Rio can also be ordered to target specific parts of enemies to exploit their weaknesses and players can also change the attack order in a similar fashion.
A headset is required to play the game, from a game bundle, a third-party headset, or any headset compatible with USB.
About PlayStation 2
The PlayStation 2 (2000) is the best-selling game console in history, with a library exceeding 9,000 titles that spans everything from budget shovelware to genre-defining classics. That massive volume means PS2 collecting is accessible and affordable overall, but a handful of low-print-run RPGs and cult titles have become genuinely expensive — a common pattern once a console's original audience grows up with disposable income.
Gamevaro tracks Lifeline for PlayStation 2 with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Lifeline to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This PS2 release dates back to 2004.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Lifeline, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common PlayStation 2 titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
