Second time I've beaten this, and I enjoyed it a lot more this time around. Knowing there was some repetition with some of the levels reusing areas made it less of a chore, bit still dragged it down a bit.

I found a nice rhythm with it this time. Enjoyed making use of the sniper rifle, and the shotgun came in handy against the flood. I think paying attention to the story a bit more this time around helped too. I never used to care, as I just enjoyed blasting space freaks and stealing vehicles.

The updated visuals are nice overall, but in some areas can make it confusing where I needed to go next. No way point and scooby doo corridors had me going the wrong way on more than one occasion.

Otherwise, I've had a good time. Even better than the last time I played it. The games only improve as they go on (well, 5 is the exception, but that's a blip) so I'm looking forward to playing through them all again.
