I would just like to see another crack at the franchise, rather than have it squandered.

My Xbone being mean and not saving my game, forcing me to restart from the beginning added some annoyance, although to be fair I did enjoy it a bit more when I replayed the first 4-5 missions. I feel like there's too much trial and error when it comes to figuring out how to deal with the mission objectives, but when I think about it I'm pretty sure that was a thing in the first game as well. I've also gotten really used to the smoother aiming and extra precision offered by gyro-aiming, which makes games without that feature a bit less enjoyable for me. |
I have it on Rare Replay as well. But I also got it when it first came out on Xbox 360 and still have my physical copy, it hasn't aged as well as you would hope.... The bar has certainly been raised since then as far as game quality is concerned and older games like that tend to suffer as a result.

It also had a fairly active online multiplayer component last time I gave it a whirl. :)
