This is probably the worst FPS I've ever played, and one of the worst games overall that I've ever experienced.
Every encounter was an exercise in frustration. From the invisible enemies, to cramming 3 minibosses at a time into tiny playing fields, to getting downed by 3 or 4 shots, this game felt like it hadn't even been play tested.
The shooting is marginally better than the first one, but everything else that made the first game slightly interesting is gone. The setting is replaced by generic sci-fi, the plot is somehow even worse and more convoluted, the characters are boring, the boss fights are laughable, and the level design is the equivalent of a 10-year-old's Halo Forge creation. There's no flow to anything, and the game throws you from area to area without ever really telling you why you should care.
For the first third of the game I was enjoying myself, but once I hit the spaceship the quality control fell off a cliff. I can't believe the spaceship level ends with someone accidentally setting off explosives, forcing you to evacuate, it felt like they just gave up. That's how the rest of the game felt to me, too: half baked levels with vaguely interesting ideas marred by terrible enemy placement and boring, plodding plot.
I'm in too deep with this series now and bought both 2 and 3 when I played 1 so I'm going to have to see it through either way. I have truly run out of anything good to play.

I was so into the 1st one that I immediately went out and bought this one and started playing it. This also started my trend of not buying new games anymore.
Une suite dans la droite lignée du premier opus. Les graphismes ont subi une amélioration qui rend le jeu bien plus immersif. Enfin en théorie, car comme le premier celui-ci contient des passages excessivement durs et casse le peu d'immersion qu'il pourrait y avoir. Le système de gameplay change en passant à un système d'armes limité (au nombre de deux) ce qui je trouve nuie au jeu. Malgré des passages prenant et impressionnant le scénario est quelconque.
Même si ce deuxième épisode contient de bons moments, le jeu frise le médiocre avec sa difficulté en dents de scie, on approche plus du Die and retry frustrant que d'un véritable FPS immersif nous emportant dans son scénario.

good game
A big surprise that I got bundled with my PS3. It's a pity this series went the way it did.
It's good
