This was a no-brainer, day one purchase for me, but then I started looking at the gameplay vids and it just doesn't look all that compelling. I enjoyed the first one, but I think the genre has evolved past this kind of gameplay. I'm still on the fence...if I do get it though, it will be on the PC.
I've had this pre-ordered for about a month. Pre-loaded it, tried it last night...
...and wasn't impressed. I took one look at that new Zero class that looks like a cyborg/ninja/assassin type and of course had to use that for my character. Thing is, I am NOT the stealthy type when I play this type of game.
So I started over as a Commando class...and now I'm having an absolute blast. Same twisted sense of humor, a slowly expanding world of things to do, really nice level up system with good but simple advancement choices, and a REALLY good PC version this time around.
How does it compare to the first one?

Several of us have been babbling a fair amount about it in the thread here : http://grogheads.com/forums/index.php?topic=2970.0
Overall, I think it's an improvement. Missions seem longer and more detailed, enemy variety is a bit better and the overall product just seems a lot more polished. Also, they take at least one really big swing towards some serious story telling that was done very well.
I'm enjoying the hell out of it, personally. I'm on xbox live as jccaran, if anyone is looking for multi-player.
