A fun game, but not nearly as good as the original. The biggest problem is the new scaling of levels and weapons combined with the fact that the variety of weapon stats is vastly decreased. Also, the character classes are not nearly as over the top awesome as before. Some complain the game is too hard but I honestly didn't have a problem with the difficulty. I think it was probably harder than the first one, but that was a good thing. The first one, if you did all the side missions, you were kind of over leveled for the main game. This one if you DON'T do the side missions, you're kind of under leveled for the main game. There's a point where the city moves. If you don't get all those missions done in the city first, you'll have a harder time because by the time you get back in the city, those missions don't give you much XP at all. Also, I really miss the way the original would level up your guns based on what you actually used. If you use the shotguns more, you get better with shotguns. This game got rid of that and has a more generic level up structure that's ok but not great.
