You write really great stories. You really should put them up on the internet. Like write your stories and put them up there, cause they are really great.
I bought this game on a whim, not expectiong much more than the previous game. Boy, was I wrong. The campaign is a good. . . 5 times longer than the previous game. It has superb multiplayer integration, as well as a fluid framerate, even on MY crappy computer! And a new level maker was added. Community GOLD, baby.
Initially, it seems pretty boring. But once I started playing I began to like the soundtrack, lack of a leveling system (I like how your gear defines your skill), and the combat. However, I just HATED the whole energy thing. It's like playing farm ville where the developers are like "I only need to play this once a day. Lets Force other people to play infrequently, because thats just what they want." That aside, its okay if you can look past the energy system.
