take mario, a little bit of gauntlet and add badass and you get Trine II. I loved the first one and this one does not disappoint.

It took me a while to get a good feel on what I thought about this game, but I now realize that this might be one of the most dynamic and addictive games I have played to date.

Whether it be going invisible and sneaking up on a pair of unsuspecting guards only to stab both of them in the crotch at the same time, or jumping from 50 ft in the air into a group of security goons and setting off your typhoon explosives (360 degrees of death), or hacking a security terminal to retrain turrets to your enemies' biometrics and then picking up said turret and walking around with it as a big bundle of death, you just cant go wrong!

That said, the social reprocussions of your actions leave something to be desired. It's not a big deal in the scheme of things, but I was expecting reactions from people more akin to the original DX. Read the 'Wot I Think' in Rock Paper Shotgun to get a better feel of what I mean.

One of the only games I've ever pre-ordered and not regretted. :)

For $2??? BUY THIS GAME!!!! Crap I bought it for $10 and wasnt disappointed.
