So...who else is COMPLETELY HYPED for SIN&PUNISHMENT2!!??

[averyblund]

I imported S&P2 a few months back when it came to Japan. Its a blast, really hard as hell like the first. Despite being on rails you have some controll over the character as the move across the screen. Sadly the game really doesn't look that good. Perhaps I'm just spoiled by some of great looking games recently, but this game certainly looks worse in motion than I would have hoped. The action and gameplay are great though and very action packed. One nice thing about the import was that the menus are easy to navigate and the story understandable even without speaking a word of Japanese.

The game is certainly unique and will remind folks of the first one, StarFox, or Panzer Dragoon. The boss battles are especially epic and keep the pace moving quickly. This is a game people will toil over highscores- which thanks to wifi can be easily submitted.

This is a game to get excited for if you love this genre. If you don't perhaps a rental is a better option. I kind of got sidetracked lately with all the big releases so thanks for the reminder to get back to S&P2 soon!
