Graphics look good, game runs smooth, and the story line is silly. It's good to see the ol' Aperture Labs again.

I noticed a couple subtle differences from the first play to the second and I'm sure there must be more- in keeping with the spirit of most Valve games. Something also tells me we haven't seen the last of the advanced civilization of the Mantis...
